Tell us more about this one Tuf;), (Location Etc.)

Thanks
 
I think it must be Miller Field. I see that Ambleside PC contacted the Lake District National Park Authority to question the use of the land for motorhome parking back in September.

I would be interested to hear more details of the current situation from l77tuf too.

Contacted South Lakeland District council, They stated no specific aire for motorhomes. However you can stay overnight in the car parks as long as parking tickets purchased. They quoted 9am to 6pm.
Also contacted tourist info and they stated same. Not bad for The Lakes.

That's not exactly overnight! Anyhow I wonder if they knew what was meant by aire! And they are pretty hot on issuing tickets in the Lakes. I think there has to be something more offical then just a phone call. I can't see that been a lot of use as a defence!

I am a regular visitor to the lakes and pretty much all the car parks have the dreaded "no overnight occupation of vehicles" the wardens WILL move you on.

I have seen the sign for motorhome parking in Ambleside, think it's on a football clubs pitch, seem to remember they rent it out when the football rugby season is finished, not sure though ?.

I was just trying to find out if there was an aire as the thread stated. I use the lakes alot myself and an aire at Ambleside would be great. Only passing on information given. The lady stated no problems with overnight camping!

When I stated 9am to 6pm this is the period you must buy a ticket . Overnight free. Sorry if I misled you
 
correct is at the side of footy pitch and the public car park its a aire as graham the guy who runs it told us its only been open since august its flat and got water if you want more info contcat graham and tell him i gave you his number 07708310986 he knows us as we park were we want on there its all marked out and there is rules so if you go along please abide by them we dont want this places fucxing up by idiots
 
for your info it clearlly stated on the car park sign that there is no overnight parking no campervams/mobilehomes or blue badges so the aire is the only place and thats it
