Hi there, we live on the Essex/Suffolk border and i'm currently looking for some sites to short list for a quick weekend get away this season. Essex Suffolk Norfolk Kent area really, not too far from home but i would like somewhere cheap really! Been looking for weekend rates, from sort of now until before the summer hols and am struggling to find EHU for less than £20 for 2 adults 2 children and a 6 man tent. Am i being unreasonable? I read about bargains on here for £10/£15 night but they are never around the South or South East

Just asking for quiet, ehu, showers and loos really. Obviously a nice view (sea or countryside) and planty of space comes as added extras. Or perhaps a little swing or slide for the girls but not essential.

We have been to Carlton Park in Saxmundham and loved it so if anyone has been there, that's the type of place we enjoyed staying

Many thanks in advance x

Thank you, thats one to check out then :)

I am thinking of checking out Westwood Park. We went to Carlton Park and loved it so that is really the kind of site we would love to stay at

Anymore suggestions please? xx

Aww thank you AliHo, spoke to my other half and apparently his dad has known the farmer that owns it for 40 odd years! So Grange Farm might well be in the running :) Reviews say it's basic but to honest, it looks small quiet and very peaceful so i am happy with that!

Gren is that Kesslingham or Kessingland?? Never heard of it so will check out the reviews on here. We've been to Lowestoft several times on days out  as children and with our children - certainly an acquired taste, but if you've got little children who love the amusements etc then it does its job! xx

Well my friend has just booked Kessingland after i told her it was recommended to me! just waiting for a good bit of weather and we will be off to Grange Farm. It'll be £15 a night for us with electric hook up, thats a 6 man tent, 2 adults and 2 kiddies over a weekend in May (not the bank hol though, sometimes they're more expensive i think, although i didn't ask for prices at this site)

Hoping it's nice, might become a regular quick getaway, will be 30mins max from our house! lol xx

I'm going to keep popping back, and bumping this hoping for more inspiration - and will def let you know how we get on! x
