Cheers Mick Although I won’t mention the freezing but to the Mrs Generally a good camp though you’d say? Thinking of extending our 7 day booking to 10 or even 14 given this lockdown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We were just unlucky with the weather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theres a couple over this way that are pleasant enough and close to the beach. (Not Blackpool before any cunt eye starts) Got 2 grown up kids, so they won't be coming, so not arsed about the entertainment bit, it would just be me and the Mrs and our little dog, ideally near the beach.

Youri McAnespie Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 That's £200 a week to live like a gyppo, presumably 8-9 months maximum as well. Probably rent a real house for less, it is in Yakky-Da simpleton land after all...I'm sure I saw a flat on the seafront in Lllanjsandfroch or sommat for £130-140 a week - looked nice too, apart from living amongst the Welsh...

Whitestar Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Get Lakeland haven booked for the July cartmel races weekend, you won't be disappointed, not at all chavvy , upgrade to 1 level above basic and don't even tell them about the dog, nobody ever knows if you booked a dog or not. Any level of upgrade higher than the first isn't really worth it as its usually the luck of the draw, we been here over 20 times and had some cracking caravans. If you not bothered about the entertainment don't even get the passes, you can still go in the bars during the daytime anyway. I think you can even take dogs in the races, but get a taxi and leave the dog in the van. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smiley Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) Brynteg. Mainly owners. But has a few rentals. This pretty much keeps any scuzz away. On the edge of Snowdon but you can be on Anglesey in 20 mins. Best of both worlds. Close by Llyn Padarn and Llanberis. Great for water sports. Loads of walking routes. Beach at Newborough is great for dogs. https://www.parkleisure.co.uk/brynteg Edited April 27, 2020 by Smiley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site fees - ouch! Ours are over £6k. But we have a 50% share with my business partner. Our rental property in Salford covers those fees. So it’s like a freebie for us.

We sold up and bought a new on on a smaller site that doesn't allow you to rent out. It's got a pub, a cafe/tea rooms, outdoor heated pool and a games room for kids and suits us nicely. It's right by the Lancaster Canal near Capenwray, just 2.5 miles from motorway & 3 miles from Carnforth, where I can get the train or be picked up by Lancaster Whites for the match. It's not all laid out in rows either, we're in a little cul de sac with 3 other vans, 2 of which are hardly ever used and the other belongs to Jennifer Ellison, formerly of Brookside. Site fees are only £2500. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not in Crawley Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Park dean sites are ok if you stay away from the clubhouse, some are better than others, the camping pitches on some down in Kent are lovely. Much prefer camping than hotels Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
