Random queries no. 120
One of a series of genuine search engine enquiries which successfully brought visitors to the Ministry. Can I help?
campsites in windermere swimming pool
Kind of damp, even considering recent weather elsewhere in the UK.
This query seems to reveal a misapprehension about the nature of the Lake District. It's a National Park in Northern England (brrr!), with planning regulations stressing the preservation of heritage and the natural environment. It's not a holiday resort, and I'm not aware of any camp sites with swimming pools; I don't think there are any full-on holiday parks in the National Park, like Center Parcs near Penrith. One could expect drinking water, maybe toilets, maybe even showers at the larger sites, but they really are places to eat (food one has brought from home) and sleep, not to spend entire holidays.
There's a public swimming pool at Troutbeck Bridge, if that's any help.
