I recon campsites are going to get extremely busy very soon, maybe not as crowded as Bournemouth but if all 250000 motorhomes registered in GB (aprox 2.5 vans per square mile) take to the road after the weekend it could be fun.

Yes, Beadnell beginning of August for three nights.

Yes, Hidden Valley in North Devon.

It was the third I tried.

First week in August.

Site isn't fully functional, for heath, safety reasons the toilet and wash block are closed. They are only accepting bookings from self sufficient units.

I've got 2 next week & one towards the end of July - all booked in the last couple of days without any issues.

One Cs owner said he's had lots of calls but most seem to be booking for a few weeks time.

had decided on staycation this summer anyway, so 2 weeks and around 8 sites booked UK months ago.
Going to Longleat this Saturday - be fun as must be unique to have the whole site arrive the same day. Have been given a timed entry slot.

Our most recent bookings made last week were for
Manor Farm, Burton Bradstock, Dorset August Bank Holiday
Salisbury CCC in August
Henley Four Oaks CMC in September
Hoping CCC Temporary Holiday Sites will also be running in August as we have a gap to fill.
Previous bookings made during lockdown
Southport CMC July
Delamere Forest CCC July
Ferry Meadows CMC August
IoW with MCC rally in September / October.
Deliberately centred on the main clubs for bookings this year, just out of ease of booking and some [misplaced] worries over standards at other smaller ones.
Avoided Wales and Scotland this year due to their uncertainty.

We have booked there for next Tuesday to Friday. Lovely campsite. The restaurant isn’t open until the 10th but that’s not a problem. So excited to just be getting away, will be cycling to Woolacombe, Ilfracombe etc :giggle: :giggle:

(Yes, I know it’s only a couple of miles from where we live, but SWMBO has a hair appointment next Tuesday - more than my life’s worth for her to miss it by being held-up in traffic........ :rolleyes: o_O )

In may when the question was asked on here about when we would ever get out I said hoping for mid july but expecting mid aug.........bored in a supermarket queue I booked both dates so I didn't do too bad, one of the sites wont be opening this year but I managed to book a different one pretty quick
Biggest problem I have found is big attractions like Chester zoo/longleat etc are not allowing bookings too far into this year so you cant plan any autumn/winter breaks including them

Barnard Castle this Sunday, then Berwick, Tayview near Dundee independent site that still has vacancies, then Stonehaven, Edinburgh, Melrose, Wolsingham another independent site that still has spaces, back home around beginning of August. Apart from the two independent sites we booked C&MC sites weeks ago for ease of cancelling if we couldn't get there.
The furthest is about 3 hours driving from home so we can scuttle back easily if we have to.

We have stayed at Manor Farm Burton Bradstock (and the THS next door) a couple of times, lovely spot very near the sea and village - enjoy.

We are going to Beadnell bay next week, although I booked it over a month ago I could only get a pitch with no electric.
