Has anyone got any recommendations for campsites in the Lake District?

Was wondering if anyone had any campsites they could recommend. I'm not bothered about loads of facilities, just hot, clean showers and loos and somewhere to wash my pots and not too big and busy.
Previously I've enjoyed staying at Kestrel lodge (near Keswick), waterside farm (pooley bridge) and low Wray (near ambleside).
I suppose I'm asking about hidden gems, those smaller sites that are in lovely locations but don't necessarily pop up when you Google "campsites in lake district".
I would be most grateful for any recommendations, thanks.

I was coming to recommend Low Wray. As you've already been there I'll hang around and see what others suggest as I'm interested in the same.

Low Wray is one of my favourite sites - I had a lovely week there last May, gorgeous weather and the site was only half full so I had a patch of bluebell filled woodland all to myself to camp in.

Gillside Farm, Ullswater - you can get fresh milk and eggs from the farm and there’s a breakfast van at the weekend!
Syke Farm is a good old fashioned campsite.

Gillside farm looks great (cheap too as they charge per person rather than per pitch which is better for single campers!), I'll put that one on my list, thanks.
