Can anyone recommend a waterside campsite in the central england area? Somewhere northern central would be pref (e.g.Peak district, Derbyshire, Staffordshire area). Don't mind if it's a river, lake or canal! We've searched the map and just can't seem to find anything.

Couple of suggestions but not much in your neck of the woods.

Wigrams in Warwickshire. Further south the C&C club site at Chertsey and if you can venture into Wales Ty Isaf Nr Bala could be worth a try

Just looked closely at your reply 40goingon14. Unless I'm very wrong, Bala Lake in Wales is not Central England! You leading me up the campsite path again? LOL.
