We are off to Barrow in February to visit some family. While we are there we want a few nights camping and to have a few walks around the lakes etc. I have found some sites on the search function but can anyone recomend one that is open all year, has a toilet/shower block and a pub on site or nearby. (Ideally with ehu aswell) and last but not least not a million miles from Barrow wherever that might be :-)

Thanks

campsites open all year in the North West
The only ones I have any experience of are the National Trust sites in Langdale and Wasdale. Neither exactly close to Barrow.
TBH, this time of year I'd be camping in the Travelodge.

Just be prepared for wet & mud.  We went to the Lakes last September and it rained constantly the whole time we were there.

Lovely place though!

The Quiet Site at Ullswater is nice and has an unusual bar on site in the old barn. Not far from thr M6, so on the way to Barrow. I think it opens all year round.

The quiet site is open all year but even further from Barrer than the NT sites.
