We upgraded to a caravan last August, after camping for a couple of years and looking round to book the van onto sites this year, we've had a bit of a shock with the prices!

We like a play area for the kids, but other than that, thats it. A couple of times a year, we stay on a Haven type site, but on our weekend breaks we tend to walk a lot and spend time as a family.

I dont know if i'm looking in the wrong places, but all the sites i'm looking at are asking for £25+ per night... Since we dont go out on a night (we prefer to BBQ and mingle) i'm finding caravanning pretty costly...

We're even in both the Caravan Club & Camping and Caravan club, but I still can't see cheap sites...

Can anyone point me in the right direction??

Thanks

we tend to use CS/CL sites which are usually very cheap (think most we have paid is £13 a night).  We have seen some with parks but not many but they usually have the space where kids can run around and play.  This year we're doing mostly rallies and the group we go with put on loads of stuff for the kids to do during the day and in the evening so the kids are well entertained

Thanks for replies, have had a look at the few thats been suggested on this thread!

Quick one, whats CS/CL?? Club site???

Thanks

We stayed at Waxham Sands Campsite in near Horsey,near Great Yarmouth or a bit of madness and near the Norolk Broads for tranquility!!

I did a review at the time which is on here.Very good value imo.
