love cornwall . love dorset, like the look of snowdonia but never been.

not very helpful am i but dont envy you choosing 1 of the 3.

cant you combine say cornwall and dorset in the same trip, not sure how long you are looking at but maybe a week at each location ??

good luck

Put all three in a hat and pick one out.

Then find a site to suit.

Then next year go to the 2nd destination, its an easier way to pick as you will find great sites in all Counties.

We did Burnbake in Dorset for a week and then went to Cornwall for another - it's not that far.  We are often in Snowdonia as we live near there.  Do you want to be right by the beach or are you after the country - like someone said do one this year, one next year etc etc.  We love Cornwall now and we are lucky because Gwynedd (the county Snowdonia is in is really near us so we can go there for a weekend).

Was there really any need for that post?

Jesus, i couldnt be bothered to say 2 counties and a Mountain range.

Maybe i should have said 3 destinations,just for you.

You got that wrong.

Snowdonia is the (English) name for the National Park.

you would have thought someone from Wales would have their facts correct before correcting me on something so trivial.

Hi Sandy & Paul, Although this site isn't in Cornwall its not a million miles away and I think it will probably tick most of your boxes. Its in a excellent area for touring and is only about 90mins travelling to Eden, have a look you never Know . http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=1322
