  Best sea view......Three cliffs bay, Gower

  Dogs favorite site........Clumber park.

  Best loos and showers......Shardaroba, sutton in Ashfield.

  Best chill out sites...........Cottage farm, blackwell, Derbys, Low farm, Folkingham, Incleboro fields Cromer.

  Best for scenery and walking.......Knight stainforth, Cottage farm, Derbys, again, Highfield farm Derbys, Skelwith fold, Ambleside. 

  I have loved most places  for different reasons, some I have been to several times over.

  The places I have been to over the last two years are reviewed on my profile.

I've blanked the name from my memory, but the worst site I've ever been to (and I went there twice!) was a little site with fishing pools right behind Newquay airport.

The airport wasn't really a problem, as it was closed over the bank holiday. Actually it was quite interesting.  It was the stinky loos, inadequate showers and getting woken up early on the Sunday morning by foul-mouthed fish-molesters and their unruly and incontinent dogs.

I'm never going to a site with fishing ever again. I don't know what makes farmers / site owners think the 2 things go together at all <shrug>

topcat36 - have you tried the Isle of Avalon at Glastonbury? Here are the reviews:

They also take kids & it's the kind of campsite where they just run about playing. Not a lot in the way of swings as I recall, but plenty of grass etc.

there have been quite a few and the criteria has changed over the years becuase of the age of children and type of van

some of the best - vale of pickering - looe caravan club - high rigg farm, dalby forest - bobby shaftos, beamish - wood nook grassington

some of the worst - trent feild farm, lincolnshire - a site near morcombe which i can't remember the name of but that was right next to railway line- brompton on swale nr richmond

I think the best for me is Harlyn Sands near Padstow. We have been there for two weeks the last two years on the run.But in June when it is fairly quiet.

Just had a week in Sufolk at a adult only site called Lonely Farm near Saxmundham, and that came a close second.

best chill out site , Cliff Top at Atwick , best all round site , camping Haliotis - MT St Michel - France...

worst site , marton mere - Blackpool closely followed by Sandford Park , Poole
