hi, not posted for a while as camping has been on the back burner whilst i was busy being pregnant and having a baby.

But time has come to take the little one, and the bigger one, and the slightly bigger one and the biggest one camping once more.

However we were all set to go to Shell Island in wales at some point this week but i looked at their website and they are full this weekend. Hopefully it will be a bit less busy by wednesday but if not i have no idea where to go.

The UK is our oyster - we have 4 kids aged 1 - 12 and there are 2 adults.

All we require is somewhere for kids to play , a camp fire and some hot water and loos .

I have trailed through the camp site search but thought whilst i am doing that i would ask for some recomendations. Any thoughts ??

Shell island seemed to have everything we wanted.

CAn anyone come to our rescue and point us in the right direction?

Thanks

Why not phone them? Do they have bookings? always best to ask and not to totally rely on the website
