allow searching by travel distance, e.g. 1 hour from London
If you're looking somewhere to go for the weekend it would be nice to say I would like to travel no more than 2 hours from home, and get a list of possible destinations.
You already search by location, but let us choose the radius from that location and you get a nice useful feature!
28 votesThanks for the idea – we’ve added the ability to alter the search radius from 30m when you search using a postcode. We’ll be adding a similar feature for other ‘point’ searches…the driving distance may take a little longer but we’re looking into it!

Let users suggest new campsites too add to the directory
It would be good if users could add new campsites to the directory (Obviously they would need to be approved by Pitchup staff) People like me know lots of campsites that arent listed on the site, also I know of lots of scouting campsites and if they were all listed this could be valuble to scout groups!
24 votesThanks for the tip! We’re working on a new ‘suggest a campsite’ page but in the meantime please feel free to use the contact form to submit any sites we haven’t found:

Would it be possible for the website to remember my "Filter" selections.
I always go camping with the same setup (a tent). It would be helpful if my filter options were remembered (cookies?). Would that be useful to you too?

have a search for tent sites only
every time I search for a tent site I keep coming up with caravan sites why can#'t people with tent needs find just tent sites.....don't care what other stuff is there when I get there, just need to know I can pitch a tent
Also sick and tired of keying in Ulverston and getting sites up near keswick and coniston16 votesAll sites in a tent search will accept tents. They may also accept caravans. You’d like a search for sites that only accept the tent category, and not motorhomes, glamping or tourers. Correct?
Re Ulverston sites, this is determined by what’s in the address – sometimes a site in an outlying village may have Ulverston as its postal town.

Walks web link
Why don't you actually link to the relevent walkingworld walk, just showing there is a walk nearby is okay, but pointless at the same time

Add cycle touring to your activity list
We look for sites that accept a small group of cyclists (max 5) each with their own tiny tent that generally fit on two pitches. And often stay just one night.
We know there are sites that welcome cyclists and backpackers - even give us a reduction, but I can’t see any reference to that on Pitchup, just lots of sites that say in their description that they would refuse our set up (we are all females) I’ve tried the motorbike tour search, but again lots of expensive sites that wouldn’t accept single sex groups.
There are so many lovely…11 votes -
Add pitch size to the filters
It would be helpful if you could filter by pitch size I've looked at a campsite only to find the pitch size is too small for my tent

Have a 'rate the showers' facility for us Glampers!
I (and many of my camping friends) would like to know the follwing about the shower facilities for each of the campsites: do they have doors rather than curtains, is there a hairdryer, is there anywhere to plug in straighteners (don't laugh!), are there curtained off sinks o brush your teeth? I search in vain on review sites trying to find the anwers to these questions! Is there a faclity which can ask people these questions when reviewing? A kind of glampers guide :-)

Spelling check would be good idea or possibility to edit what I added10 votes -

Roof top tent option
Due to increased popularity coukd you start including roof top tents as an option, so the sites are aware and can site you accordingly...
