We need a campsite for the week of Fri 22nd Aug to Sat 30th of Aug 2008, ideally, Dorset, Devon or Hampshire with the following conditions for camping and one family in a caravan.

1) Mustn't be chavvy! Sorry if I sound like a snob but I don't want amusement arcades and take aways selling cones of chips. Quiet and clean would be ideal although it is the August B/H weekend.

2) Takes dogs

3) Near water, ideally the sea but lakes or rivers would be ok.

4) Prefer electric hookup

5) Takes children.

I have trawled the campsite search facility but can't see the wood for the trees, so to speak. Thanks. Madders

How about here

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=1266 

Might be more there than you want but even so... or a bit further afield...

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/results3.asp?search=gear+farm&by=sitename- we have never stayed, but have been to the same area (in a cottage in winter) and promise ourselves to go - it is SO beautiful there, wonderful walks along the Helford and frenchman's creek - the river has beaches and the dogs and kids can swim in them - beaches very short drive away... lovely - there is a website but not listed on here..

Or, this is a nice one...

http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=1750

and this  http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/results3.asp?search=runnage&by=sitename

Location is beautiful - wonderful walks, pubs in Widecome and most villages - but it is on the high moor - a fair drive from "civilisation" (well Bovey Tracey or Moretonhampstead anyway...)

Good Luck

Hi

How about Bagwell Farm http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/details.asp?revid=1329 It might fail the 'near water' test as technically it isn't but it is only a 10 min drive into Weymouth and Chesil Beach ishn't far at all. The site is great, definitely not chavvy but does have a decent bar (far enough away from the pitches to not be noisy). I stayed there over the last bank holiday and would definitely go again.
