Hello all

New to all this camping lark but game for a laugh and this year I have agreed with a couple of mates that we will take the little ones for a camping trip (and give mum a break for the weekend).

I wonder if any one has recommendations for child friendly sites around Gloucs, Wilts, Shropshire, H & Worcs, etc. Some of the children are 8/9 and couple under 4/5 and so we are uncertain how they will all take to it but hopefully good weather and fresh air will see them right. In addition kids facilities will surely convince them that its fun.

If anyone also knows of any good tips when camping with the younger generation please share-as I say, I am very green when it comes to canvas and sleeping bags



Don't forget to leave a review of the campsites you have visited this year or last!

Also check out Mumsnet.com - they have a whole section on kid friendly campsites in their holiday review section, with plenty (in fact most) in the south.  A note of caution - you may be best to steer clear of Camping and Caravanning club sites as they have strict no noise policy after 11pm and often don't allow ball games.  In my experience, when a group of Dad's are camping together the days include lots of games of footy or cricket and evenings involve a few  beers and laughs when the kids are supposedly going to sleep!
