Me, the missus and kids went away last weekend and got bitten to bits by midges, that was the only thing that spoiled our weekend. We were sat (being eaten alive) having a few drinks (too many units) and decided there is no such thing as the perfect campsite cos we all like different things, if we didn't all like different things there'd be a long queue.

     For us the perfect site would be...No pub on-site, clean and tidy, fairly modern toilets/showers, plenty of hot water, shop on-site, quiet, no loud noise rule after 10:30 (don't mind talking), fairly flat pitches, electric hook up, kids play park and reasonable price, we don't mind paying for decent facilities but hate being ripped of! And nearly forgot, no bloody midges!!!!

     Are we asking for too much? Karlos and Chas.

Its better to regret things you've done than things you have never tried

Same as you really but we don't need the hook-up.

It'd also be nice to be within short walking distance of a beach, that'd be perfect.

I do sometimes think I could make myself a nice campsite in one of our fields.  When I'm down there with the dog, walking by the stream, nice flat field, could have a driveway through one field into the other, build a nice little toilet block keep an area mown for playing games but then I think there'll be plenty of midges and if I had a campsite I wouldn't have the time to go camping!
