I may well be the only one, but are there ANY single/independent travellers out there? I'm sociable and  get on well with most people and have friends who have kids/and or are couples etc/but also like my peace and love my own company.

Getting a bit sick of the "everyone is a couple and has kids" attitude of holiday bookings? As a teacher I don't mind seeing kids on holidays - but prefer peaceful places with independently minded people and basically not being made to feel like a freak just cos I enjoy my own company!

And yes have looked at "adult only sites".

Just because we travel alone does not mean we are looking to date either! So many "single travellers companies" are really cheesy dating agencies in disguise?

Surely Im not the only one? Am I?? lol

Hi , I'm also a solo camper vanner with the dog. I've never been to an adults only site. I used to take my nieces with me but now they've met boys!!

Dont know where you are but i'm going to the Oxford end of summer meet . There are other soloists there so we wont be on our own!! . Why dont you come along ?

I went on a Solos holiday last year to Turkey - it was fine. I would reccommend it . Cant afford it this year though due to rising costs....

Hi V&C,

Also going to Greenhills. Make yourself known to me, I'll put the kettle on.

I'm part of a couple but still enjoy camping on my own (OH isn't too fussed on it)

I just drag the dogs along with me, you're allowed to be single then!

Me too.

The OH is off to do her thing later this week and me and the dug will push off north for a few days on our own.

Hi

I just wanted to say that I am also a female solo camper and proud of it.  I enjoy the company of others, just as much as my own. I think it gives you alot of freedom to go where you like, when you like, without having to drag unwilling companions along with you.  I have attended one solo/single parents meet, which was okay, but I do prefer the small rural farm type campsites, as someone already mentioned.  So you're defintely not alone. I used to have a dog but he died and I hope to get another one, although I've never experienced any problems being a lone camper! So be proud and keep your chin up.
