Anyone know of some lovely little sites around the South Coast and Central England. We would love to book to get away this season but all of our go to sites and others I've looked at are fully booked.
We hoping that maybe some smaller sites will have some availability
Thanks

There is a filter on the campsite search on UKcampsite for sites with Availability Calendar, you could try applying that as a filter, along with any other filters that you need.

An important filter for us on Site Search is the overall star rating from the reviews that we all post. The stars show on the list. A “gem” needs 10 out of 10.

-------------
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.

Does such a filter exist as I can't find it?

I requested for the ability to show/sort search results according to review ratings not long ago and got nowhere.

Not a filter as such. I’ll print off the map of where we’re touring with the list of sites relevant to our needs; the list shows how many stars each has.

Got you, thought I had missed a trick, that's all.

I wouldn't rule out a 8/10 or 9/10 site without reading the recent reviews - sometimes one man's meat is another man's poison.

The site that we stayed at last year is a 9/10. Reading the recent reviews, one reviewer has given the site nothing but praise, but then inexplicably has graded it 7/10 Another seems to have dropped it several stars due to poor weather!

Quite a lot of reviewers seem to rate sites on the toilet/shower facilities which bothers us not a jot as we use our own, so don't be put off by that if it doesn't matter to you.
