Hi everybody, wondered if anyone can help.....

I'm taking some friends who live in St. Albans away camping next month and one of them hasn't been camping for years after some trauma whilst camping as a kid involving a dead baboon turning the water supply bad!!

I want to find a campsite that's fairly quiet, but at the same time has sparkling toilets and showers so that this weekend isn't too traumatic!  I guess anything within anything like a 60 miles radius would be really helpful.

Any ideas are appreciated.

Cheers.......Neil

we live in wgc so not far

there are loads around cambridge/norfolk and have not been to a bad one yet

please stat well clear from billing aquadrome as it is noisy very noisy

do a search of campsites on this site and read the reviews they help us and are very honest

Thanks - i'll check out Pear Tree Tony.  Might be a little far for what I had in mind though (only about 1 or 2 hours travelling).

I've got a list of 3 or 4 sites in addition to that, which I'm checking, but any more recs will be gratefully received.

Cheers........Neil

Hertford CCC or is that too close to home?!

I can recommend Brighthouse Farm in Suffolk, between Sudbury and Bury St Edmunds.  We went two weeks ago for a long weekend as camping virgins and loved every minute of it.

You get to choose where you want to pitch, the toilets/showers are sparkling, a large indoor area to do the dishes and the owners is not standing with his hand out waiting for payment when you are trying to put the tent up - he catches up with you during your stay.

Also a couple of nice pubs within a 3-5 minutes drive.
