Hi all, we are a family of 5 (3 children, my wife and myself) and go camping each year. We have a foldable caravan (Rapido Export from 1979, vintage indeed) which as an awning. My children sleep in a separate pop-up tent, which we place on the same pitch next to the caravan.
Normally this is a very common setup, and no issue in The Netherlands, France, Czech republic etc.
But now that we are looking for a campsite in the UK, I see on almost every site that pop-up tents are not allowed. So where would I let my children sleep? I called a campsite and they stated that on each pitch, all persons should be within 1 accommodation due to Health&Safety regulations.
Is this a general rule in England or UK?
Bumping this one up a bit in the hope that somebody with more knowledge than me will answer.
I suspect that one reason may be that sites want to avoid the risk of somebody booking a pitch for xx people, then inviting several additional friends/family to come and spend the weekend there at no extra cost.
You may have more luck with some of the smaller sites if you explain the reason in detail, as they may be more likely to be flexible.
