Hiya Shep

How about views of the Fleet Lagoon, rather than the sea (same difference, it's tidal!)???!!!!

If so try EAST FLEET FARM, Weymouth.

Great site - bar/restaurant on site (fab real ales and local cider!!)

Walking distance of Weymouth!

Rosemarkie CCC site on the Black Isle just north of Inverness ticks every box for you. If you are caravannning as opposed to tent camping I can suggest others.

Hi Shep, have a look at St. David's Park, Red Wharf Bay, Anglesey. Not actually been there myself, but my Sis-in-law has and says it's fantastic (beach, views, pub, facilities etc). Its now on our short list, or should I say long list for next year!

watergate bay just outside newquay cornwall.

there is a comercial site and a c&cc site next door lovely views and location walk down the hill to pubs and beach.

the next best i would say is keswick in the lake district must be one of the best locations ive been to next to watergate bay. it is not a beach but the lake and veiws and things to do are endless and views are just gorgeous.

my sister say the isle of white. im not sure about sea views.

Hi Hook Up, S-I-L has just informed me that when they stayed there they where in a tent in the days before they got their caravan ( ABI Marauder 450CT, interestingly enough) and said there were no caravans on the site.

Sorry for building your hopes up, guess I'll have to cross it of my list or get a tent again! (or Mo-Ho)
Doh!

Just had a look at eastfleet and was quite impressed until i looked at the prices. Price includes 2 adults, charge extra for children is £5 each if they are 13 or over. I thought a child was up until 16 at least. So many sites are trying this CON nowadays.
