Caravan and camping

Camping

As the birthplace of camping, England has a large number of places to stay of every kind – from small, quiet spots to big lively parks offering a wide range of facilities and entertainment.

Camping and caravan parks are excellent for families - they offer great value for money in a friendly environment. They are located both near the coast and in the heart of the countryside. At some parks you can hire caravans or chalet holiday homes that are often very spacious, accommodating between two to eight guests. Hired caravans have all the equipment you’d expect, such as a shower, kitchen and  a television.

If you want to camp, it would be best to bring your tent with you as there are very few for hire; pitches cost from around £5. If you have a touring caravan or a motor-home, these are welcome at the many sites that accept touring vehicles. Many parks have pitches that have connections to water, drainage, electricity and perhaps a TV aerial.
