I've just got off the phone from booking our first break of 2011, a week at Camping Caradon near Looe in Cornwall at Easter.

It's 7 months away but I'm so excited already, I've not been to Cornwall since I was 11.

Sorry, just had to share that

Same here- looking to book now for Whit week 2011, probably Worcestershire and also for July/August 2011 for the Isle of Wight or Jersey. We tried Easter camping this year, but it was much too cold for us in Kent in a tent in April, so we've booked a cruise for Easter 2011! Looking forward to next year's camping already though.

Exactly my thinking. I know Cornwall is popular and sites can book up in a flash, so didn't want to leave it and then lose out. For the sake of a £20 deposit it was a no brainer to book now.

It's worth dropping them a line to check. Caradon didn't have any 2011 prices listed online, so I emailed and enquired. Lene replied to say their 2011 prices aren't published until October, but that any bookings taken before then will be honoured at the 2010 price.

I wish I could forward plan - never know what little ones will be placed with me so all my trips generally have to be last minute!

Well done you though - something good to look forward to and plan for in the bleak winter months
