2 Flat Feet May 2009 5:11pm, 5 May 2009 2,465 posts	2 Flat Feet Seriously, if you want "proper" accommodation, we just released a room at the Rothay Garth we had on hold (in favour of the proper experience in the tent) so they may have space.... decent, not too expensive, edge of Ambleside so not far go to get to Brathay Hall

Camping is what you have to do when you're in the middle of nowhere and there aren't any roofs or walls in the vicinity. But when you're staying in a county that's got 65 B&Bs per square metre ... no way!)
