fairweather camper Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Hi My husband has bought himself a sit in Fishing Canoe, can anyone recommend a campsite close to a lake/river or such in the Midlands area. Regards Val Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rayjsj Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Not in the Midlands but Hereford, CC affiliated site called. Lucksall, right on the river Wye.at a place called Mordiford. You can launch from the site, they even rent out Canoes. Nice site too. Ray Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
donna miller Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 There's a campsite in Bala, Mid Wales with a canoe centre next door. Can't remember the name off the top of my head but will post it if I remember. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWO Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Hi Just about in the Midlands, the National Trust site at Houghton Mill. Easy portage to the river ( Great Ouse I think it is without getting the map out to refresh memory) The river down to St Ives is my favorite bit of canoeing river . It is easy to get into the river from Houghton lock either up or down the river HWO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWO Posted May 12, 2015 Share Posted May 12, 2015 Another thought. Riverside caravan park , Stratford upon Avon As the name suggests it is right on the river Avon. Canoe launching from the site,nice quiet bit of river up there well away from the day trippers who go boating nearer the town. Got attacked by a swan near the campsite couple of weeks ago, so be prepared to repel boarders. HWO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
