This past week we introduced you to some campgrounds around the world that hopefully inspired you explore some new travel destinations and activities this summer. If you need one final small push in that direction, let these campgrounds found around the U.K. encourage you in your quest to find that perfect place to pitch your tent this year. These campgrounds were chosen based on their proximity to great pubs which are within stumbling distance of one another. If you're traveling with family you may want to ensure there are actually other activities for them nearby as well. Activities where your absence will not be noticed or missed are especially recommended.

So you don't have to feel entirely guilty over planning a holiday entirely around the nearby pubs. In fact you could use that little green tidbit as further justification for choosing that destination. See the full list of the pubs and nearby campgrounds, as well as more information about them after the jump.
