Yes it's that time of year again, the one we love the most, when you can forget about the January blues and start planning your 2012 camping trips! This year we are bringing you even more great campsites with amazing outdoor spaces and accessibility to a whole host of activities that will make your camping adventure one to remember!
So what are the first things you should consider when booking your 2012 camping trip?
1. Plan a week/weekend when you want to head out with your tent and get the date in your diary. Remember camping is becoming more and more popular and Bank holidays are always super busy, also some sites are subject to a minimum stay so once you have a date in mind it's better to book early! Also this year we have an extra Bank Holiday -
The Diamond Jubilee, the usual last May Bank Holiday is being pushed out until the first weekend of June and we are getting an extra day, so the weekend will last from, Saturday 2nd - Tuesday 5th and there is lots happening to mark the celebration up and down the country!
2. Think about the type of experience you want from your camping trip...maybe you want access to some great bike trails or maybe you just want plenty of outdoor space that the whole family can enjoy! Either way once you have decided what sort of trip you would like and how far you are prepared to travel then you can find a selection of sites that will fit the bill using our really easy search function on the home page!
3. Now that you have a weekend in the diary and a choice of places to go, do a bit of research on the area to find out what's happening when you're there, pick a site and book! It's easy and you will have a tailor-made weekend that you can look forward to..so what are you waiting for, get started!
We will be back later in the year with details on what to do next....
