We have found it, on site now. Toilets/showers Spotless, family rooms, spotless, all with loads of hooks and stools. Very large level pitches A mix of caravans and tents all over the site (no special area for caravans near the toilets) EHU Very quite after 10.30 Loads to do very nearby Freeze ice blocks for you freindly staff woods playpark for kids Tree all around pitch area so you can get some shade (as very hot at moment) best of all everyone is so friendly and happy We are at Whitefield Forest IOW. Its the best site i have been too in 3 years of camping.

My perfect site:
Friendly staff,
no main road nearby,
nice views,
low density of pitchs so everyone can spread out,
EHU for caravans and tents,
shooting (with silencer) of anyone who uses a generator despite EHU available (yes I've seen it happen),
campfires allowed,
dogs allowed,
nice modern heated showers and toilets,
Enforced noise curfew. No noise between 10pm and 9am,
Adults only area,
A barrier to stop a*****les turning up in the middle of the night or going in and out,
small shop on site but no club.

I like the sound of a car free site, although I would like the ability to drive in and drop off stuff before leaving the car outside the campsite.
I'd say a warden onsite is pretty important to me, but that's only because of bad experiences and in my 'fantasy campsite' there would only be mindful, cheerful campers, not the idiots I've been meeting on occasion.
I'd like space between pitches, preferably like many french campsites where you have low hedges between pitches. I'd like to rent the pitch, the whole pitch - and for it not to matter if I put one big tent or a couple of small dome tents and a tarp. I'd like the price to be for the whole pitch, not for individual people and/or dogs or utility tents.
I'd like a regularly cleaned shower block and loos and I particularly like the sites (many in Ireland) where they have communal campers kitchens and sometimes sitting rooms. Mannix Point in the South of Ireland has a turf fire in their sitting room, musical instruments hanging on the wall, and more often than not a spontaneous music session just breaks out, everyone taking a turn if they feel like it. In fact Mannix Point would probably encompass everything that's perfect about a site, you can tell it's run by and experienced camper. Pity it's so far from me!

Surely camping is all about the camaraderie,cramped pitches,noisey neighbours,children running amok everywhere, people walking across your pitch,tripping over other peoples guy ropes,queuing to use dirty toilets/showers,smokey bbq's etc
