almost went for that one myself! But I like trees on a campsite (I know they are bad for tents but I do like the look of them!)

Yep Grin. We're going to \link{www.rowlandswait.co.uk\Bere Regis}. All of 15 mins drive away! We're meeting up with 4 other families though and they're coming from all over so it was central.

yes, somewhere by the coast in Dorset. we're going with our local Woodcraft Folk for a truly bizarre experience, i suspect.

FGS Angry you bloody campers make me sick! All we get on mnet these days is the virtual rustle of groundsheets and the smell of Calor gas.

You're a bunch of weirdies and I hope you all get bitten on your unwashed bums by grass snakes. Wink

Weirdy. Be normal and book a hotel. You know you want to.

I lurrrrve hotels but dh doesn't appreciate them and it's hard work with littleuns. We had to go to two weddings at the weekend, I had our 11 week old with us. He's not settled down yet so eating together and relaxing was difficult - easier in an open environment.

Is Whitsun the next Bank Holiday? If so, we're hoping to go camping somewhere in West Yorkshire - I know, not the holiday destination that might generally spring to mind, but means we're close to one of ds1's friends who's having a birthday party that can't be missed. Grin

Don't suppose anyone has been to a great campsite in West Yorks. No, I didn't think so!

HenniPenni - can I ask where you're going? I've been to a farm campsite near Ashbourne, but pre-children - main attraction then was pub in walking distance!

think w yorks might actually be quite nice for camping. my mum is from there, its all moors (and coal stations, but hey). would be suprised if nowt on uk camping.
