Hi - I was wondering if anyone can let me know if they have visited any cheap sites- in Scotland they could tell us about I`m on a tight budget with 2 kids.    We don`t need laid on entertainment/holiday camp stuff and all the frills -  just somewhere with basic facilities where we can get on with a trailer tent that is away - beside water would be nice but not essential. Any pointers would be great ,England and Wales would be an Idea also and I could make up a list for future holidays.

If you are a Camping and Caravan club member then you can stay on their certificated sites, usually £10 or less per night. It's worth joining for £30 odd a year.

Thanks - We just joined the CCC earlier  today and got our insurance cover sorted for our trailer tent.    I`m looking online at the moment to see the CS but again they are few and far between in Scotland. thanks for the input. I`ll let you know if I find something interesting and cheap.

You might do better in Cumbria, quite a few there.

Thankyou - I`ll have a wee look. Greatful for the advice.

if you are in the C&CC have you considered looking at the Temporary holiday sites (THS) ?  I haven't used them myself but others have mentioned them on here as very good value.

hi some temp hol sites have no toilets or showers on site unless you have your own

have you tried strathclyde park nr motherwell or put a search in google

I have just started working here at Dalesbridge and think our prices are really reasonable - plus we love kids and dogs!

Hope we can make you welcome

I've just looked in the C&CC out and about guide. There is a THS in Muir of Ord ross-shire, that has toilet and shower facilities but i quess you probably wanted something during school hols. unfortunatly all these say own san essential.

you can do a search on C&CC site, and specify toilet and shower facilities, quite a few CS sites come up.
