Wondered if anyone could help please.

We're looking for site with boat launch facilities/area on site - proper slip not necessary as will be canoes and wind surfers, and could be sea, lake or even river at a push.

Live in Leicestershire, happy to travel 200 miles ish from there.

Usually do Scotland, (daren't say where as some earlier posters have been told off for sending too many people there), but we've only got a week this year, so looking for somewhere nearer.

Only need electric, can do without toilet block etc.No kids, so somewhere rural would be fine as dont need amenities.  Dog friendly would aslo help us a lot.  Often use CLs but cant seem to find anything easily on the CC website!

Any advice would be really appreciated please.

Many thanks.

Have you thought of Bosworth water trust you can camp within meters of the water

Kingsbury water park (neer been)

I know they both get filled up in the summer early on so I would surgest booking.

There is a water park near cannock but I don't know if there is any camping near by

Kneps Farm has a boat launch slipway 300 mtrs from site entrance in the Wyre country park

Is Padstow too far?

Dennis Farm campsite (01841 533513) has its own slip straight into the Camel Estuary. Unfortunately it does not seem to have any sort of website, but it definitely exists: some friends of ours go there every year and we have been to visit them there.

Its right next to Dennis Cove campsite on the outskirts of Padstow on the Camel Trail, and I think it might have originally been part of Dennis Cove at some time but then the camp site was split up between different owners. But don't quote me on that!
