Campsites in and around the Levels? (1 Viewer)

Hi all and greetings from Yorkshire Planning a trip down the Levels in a couple of weeks in our Campervan and looking for campsites near to some decent birding. Anyone know of any that will be open?

If you are in the britstops scheme, a couple of the pubs that allow overnight parking are very close to the reserves. The one I stayed at let me leave the van there for the day

Cheers Peter, no not even heard of 'britstops' but will investigate! Presuming its all the placed where you can park up with a camper?

Yes, you pay for the book, which lasts a year, and it details all the pubs, farm shops etc in the scheme that you can stop over for free, in a camper or motorhome (not for caravans or tents!). Meant for one night stopovers typically.
The annual cost is ~£30.

There are hundreds of pubs, usually quiet village ones, I check on google earth before I plan my trips.

We use them to break longer journeys into two days, but it is good for weekend birding trips too. I would say I just about get my money's worth out of it, use it for 6-10 stops a year I guess.

Your timing would be good for Britstops as the new book comes out tomorrow!

There is also wildcamping.co.uk, but I ditched that one after a year. Found it a bit more hit and miss, dodgy laybys etc.
