Hello everyone. First time posting here :-) just had a great last minute get away at dinarth hall campsite in rhos on sea over the bank holiday weekend - as a result of it being one of the only sites i could find that both didn't take bookings and guaranteed availability - does anyone know of any others that have a no booking ahead policy and that have always/usually got space? Or any existing lists of these? Sorry if this has already been covered elsewhere I have looked but couldn't find anything. We are looking in particular for family friendly sites within a couple of hours of Macclesfield - so n wales, Peak District are ideal. Grateful for any assistance!

Golden Sunset camping fields at Benllech on Anglesey - a large site separated into different fields, space guaranteed unless it's August bank holiday but to be honest I wouldn't recommend going then as it gets quite manic, however after then or earlier in the year it's fine. No booking, you just turn up, fees currently £8 per person per night. Only five minutes walk into the village with its shops and pubs and just a bit further to a fab beach.

That sounds great - Anglesea was definitely on the list. Yes dinarth hall was a bit manic over the bank holiday too -so many people and a bit 'lively'.

One of the Oban sites, and Reraig further up the NW coast - both too far away for you. I must say, no booking AND guaranteed availability is odd. Both the sites I mention don't guarantee a pitch, not sure how a site can anticipate passing traffic.

-------------
2024 = 20 sites / 41 nights. 2023 = 9/23. 2022 = 13/35. 2021 = 11/29. 2020 = 4/20. 2019 = 13/35. 2018 = 20/33. 2017 = 10/22. 2016 = 19/33. 2015 = 15 sites / 27 nights. Didn't count 1976 to 2014.

Thanks am married to a Scot so you never know!

Yep I thought it was odd too I guess if you are a very big farm site like dinarth hall you can make that commitment - like they say on there site they just open another field!

It got me wondering if anyone new anywhere else like that - expecting it to be rare!

We just phone up that day as some sites want you to pay up many weeks before you go and have got into most we try
