THE Camping and Caravanning Club is planning a new and more comfortable shower block at its campsite at Shap Road, Kendal.

According to plans lodged with South Lakeland District Council, lack of insulation means the building is hard to keep at a steady temperature, making for an "uncomfortable washing environment".

The club also plans to create a new reception building and to change 13 grass pitches to hardstanding, to alleviate problems caused by moving caravans in wet weather.

Skelsmergh and Scalthwaiterigg Parish Council says it has no objections to the plans.
