To stay in a caravan at the beach this year?
Dp and I always go away with another couple for a few nights in the summer holidays. We usually stay in a friends cottage in Devon for free but it's being renovated this year.
We've left it late I know but I thought that we'd find somewhere cheap and cheerful if we opted for a privately owned caravan near the sea. However, it seems they are all really expensive. We only need 4 or 5 nights, 2 bedrooms (4 adults and 2 toddlers) and to go sometime during 1-14th August. We've been quoted £380-480 for 4 nights! :( Other couple are struggling with money and won't accept financial help from us (understandable). We're really not fussy where we go- but we seem to have wrongly assumed renting a caravan is cheap!
I know I probably ABU and everyone is making cut backs this year, jobs are hard to come by and we should be grateful to have jobs and a home- but I can't help but feel sad we'll miss out on our little break by the see altogether with the kids.

To be upset that we can't even afford...
