Hi Everyone,

This year we have been very late to book due to problems with work.

We are in Wheathampstead just outside St Albans, Hertfordshire (AL4 8TL) and want to travel 3 to 3.5 hours max to a site by the beach.

Trouble is we have a dog and a big tent (7m X 5) Montana 12. We are going with some friends and are after electric hookup. We are a family with two kids (9 and 11)

We have looked for a long while now, but all the sites seem to be booked up. We were looking for a site with a play area for kids or games room.

Can anyone recommend a nice beach site within 3.5 hours of St Albans that may have spare service pitches?

Any help much appreciated.
Mark & Lynn

Have you tried Hendra, just outside Newquay Cornwall?

It's not my No1 site but this late and your family requirements its worth a go.

Best wishes

Woolacombe - this group owns 4 parks in the area. there is a bus to take you to the beach if you dont want to use the car, also it travels between each park if you want to use other facilties. There are swimming pools on each park and clubs with entertainment. Have stayed at 2 of their parks both we stayed at took all sizes of tents, and allowed dogs in certain fields.

Newquay and Woolacombe are both a bit more than 3.5 hours away from St. Albans. Can't help as we don't like the east coast which would seem to be area you are aiming for.
