£11 a night EACH! You cannot be serious. Keswick is a lovely site but wouldn't pay that. We stayed there just after Easter a few years ago, mid season plus we are lucky(?) that we now get age concession so it was quite reasonable.

Last year we paid £8 a night each at Burns Farm which is miles out of town... we just consider the extra cash a saving on taxis!

They must see that we're three lads and charge us a hidden "Assumption of Rowdiness Tax".

Ah, yes, the dreaded ART! Most places don't take groups which I suppose 3 of you are.

I'm guessing that you may also not be C&CC members, in which case there is a hefty surcharge I believe ..... keep on camping though, it proves that all-sex groups shouldn't all be tarred with the same brush!

per night

 Pitch inc. 2 people with FREE ehu £27.05

 extra adults £4.60 extra children £3.45

 + an extra 30% if you require a pitch overlooking the sea

then add a compulsary cancellation scheme at £5.00 per week

 and for the pleasure of them taking your booking a £7.00 booking fee

 


it was about £50ish for your clan wasn't it!!!

WE SHOULD SET UP A DATABASE OF ALL THE SITES TO "BOYCOTT". IT WOULD NOT TAKE LONG FOR THEM TO GET THE MESSAGE.

There's a simple solution to sites like that..... don't use them!

Got a feeling I've said this before - if people pay the fees, the sites will charge the fees........ I'm still reeling from the shock of someone being charged £4 a day for a windbreak from another thread I read today!

How much of the entertainment and facilities are included in that price? Is it all the water stuff, funfair etc. or do you pay extra for that?


Anyone?

Haven't stayed at that site but have stayed at other Haven sites and the entertainment passes for the pools/clubs etc are included in the price but they also offer other activities that aren't and are quite pricey. My daughter loves the entertainment at these sort of sites , but we find that the pitches and toilet/shower facilities etc are usually very poor considering the money that they charge per night so we try to avoid them. However we have occasionally had some last minute deals with Haven for
£10-15 per night for a family of 3 and the 9 yr old has had a great time, and when she is happy so are we.
