Riverside campsites in the Lake District

Sites on the bank of a river or stream. Some have pitches right at the water's edge; check the site's page if that matters to you.

4 of the 66 campsites in the Lake District are on this list (6%). That's well under the UK share (about one in 8), so these are worth booking early.
