Dh was supposed to be working all weekend, but now has the weekend off, but obviously we haven't got anywhere booked!

Can anyone tell me of any campsites in the North West England / North Wales that you can turn up to and stand a reasonable chance of getting on?

We want to go tomorrow ...so no pressure

Thanks in advance

Look on here and phone first thing? Make a list. If you don't want hook up you are more likely to get somewhere.

Yes, I think I'll do that, thanks.

What time do most campsites open roughly?

Golden Sunset at Benllech on Anglesey - you have to just turn up as they don't have a booking system. It's a big site with several fields , although not all-singing all-dancing, so you should have no problem getting on. They open at 8am. One of my favourite places, I was only there a couple of weeks ago.

I had a pretty good experience last year at Compton Farm on the Isle of Wight. If you are doing a spot of [Isle of Wight camping, it is best to book in advance - but you could give this place a go and just turn up!
