Hi all,

We're got almost two weeks booked off work from 27th July and intend on going to 2/3 campsites with our caravan for that time.

We like sites that have lots to do and see around them. Especially into interesting historical sites (not museums), zoos and the like. Furthest site should be within 3-4 hours of Norwich, which is where we live, although we could travel further with stops in-between. Also like sites with activity on them - a pub on or near, maybe a clubhouse etc.

So, anyone know of a few places that fit the bill? My eyes are now square from looking through the sites on here!

Kevin

Erm, it might help if you asked the question in the caravan section - this is 'Camping under Canvas'.

No it's not, this is "UK Caravan Sites and Camp Sites".

Seems like nobody wants to help me :(

Kevin

it might help if you say what part of the country want to go, and what it is you are looking for.

Cheers Ian

How about sites up in Cumbria around and about Hadrians Wall??

There are also lots of things to do in and around the Lakes and the rest of Cumbria - South Lakes Wild Animal Park at Dalton, Dock Museum (free) at Barrow, Windermere and the steamers etc, Ullswater Steamers, Brockhole etc etc the list is endless, Carlisle Castle

I don't think it's a case of no one wanting to help you out but more a case that at this time of year lots of people are off camping or are busy and it's just the RIGHT people haven't seen your post - after all it was only Sunday you posted (this is the first time I have looked on the site since Saturday )

Sites around Berwick and in the Borders could be good too

Sounds good Keely, I'll make a note of those and have a look for sites.

Ian, I don't have an 'area' I'm looking for, that's why I've asked for suggestions... Just needs to be within 3-4 hours of Norwich. The only things I am looking for are those listed in my original post. Apart from that, I'm pretty open to suggestions.

We like longleate, so much to see and do and you don't even have to get in the car for most of it!

Or what about the Yorkshire coast near scarbrough - lots to see and do there.
