For February Half Term, can anyone recommend a site that takes touring caravans near to London but outside the Emmissions Zone, in particular near to a station where we can get into London easily with a travelcard on a daily basis to see the sights.  I have found a couple of Caravan Club sites, but on the online booking system they are showing as no availability.

If anyone has any ideas that would be great, as usual I have left sorting things out to the last minute.

Many Thanks 

Hi

There are two camping and caravan club sites that both say they are a 30 min train ride into London, there is Chertsey and Hertford, we are hoping to book the Hertford one for Easter to use as a base for visiting London. I have checked the reviews on here and they are good. Hope this helps a bit.

Hi,

Not commenting on any sites near London BUT, if you have TESCO clubcard vouchers, use them to buy tour tickets for London. The tickets last 24 hours from time of purchase and you can hop on and off the tour buses any number of times in the 24 hours. Using the vouchers costs only 25% of the actual price. We paid (I think) £24-00 of vouchers for £95-00 worth of tickets...

Check out the clubcard deals brochure for the "days out" section...

I hope this might be of use to you, we bought ours at 13:00 on the Saturday, spent the afternoon on and off the buses and then returned to our accomodation and returned the next morning to see the rest in the morning...

It was a great weekend and not quite so rushed because we knew we had Sunday morning too... (all in the same price of the tickets).

Enjoy...

HI Martin

we're off to Alderstead Heath CC site over the half term.  Originally I tried to book on line however it was showing that the dates I wanted were not available.  I phoned up the site and sorted it out that way.  AFter reading a review on here, someone has said that there is a station a few miles away £4 per day which gets you into Tower Bridge (i think it is).  Good luck, I hope you get it sorted out.
