yes,i agree with you Ashwellgirl.Another thing i have noticed,is that a lot of people who are camping,are single parents.That means they really do not have much money.It would be a lovely and delightful gesture,if camp sites knocked 10% off for single parent families.

Doesn't value for money depend on expectations?

Now child-free (usually - may have grandson) we don't need playgrounds, games rooms etc. I'd rather be in a pub close to a site rather than on-site, unless it's something special, so not fussed about a clubhouse.

I do though want clean accessible loos & showers, and a little shop for local goods is always welcome.

I also want a good-sized pitch which is grassy & well-drained with EHU.

I can find such sites for £14 - 20 per night which suites me.

But when we had two young teens things were different - if they weren't happy and occupied we soon knew about it! Any price would have been worth paying. 

Prices have definately gone up this year.

We usually pay around £25 per night but we are a large family (2 adults, 3 kids and loopy dog) so that only works out as £5 each per night.

Planning to go to some of our local C&CC DA meets this year - £6 per night is a bargain!!
