I surprised myself and used some pools in France, but the best part was the 12 days on the Med (mind you, I thought it would be warmer).

Personally I don't like swimming so I don't do it. I don' find pools annoy me and don't go out of my to avoid them - I just don't go in them.------------- Steve

We never went to sites with pools when we were younger, but our son got to an age where he was able to swim, wanted to play with other kids (... and without us mainly!) so we started going to sites with pools.
Why do Brits feel they *have* to go to the seaside on holiday? If you have a nice site with a good pool you don't have to, and there are loads of sites like that in France.

I love campsite pools - but there's nothing like swimming in the sea, jumping the waves, and walking knee deep along the beach and back hunting shells. I think us Brits like the seaside because that was usually where we went as children and it was so.ooo....ooooo exciting. We still hanker for that excitement and the seaside gives us that.
I hate beaches, but I love the sea!

Nooo!! Don't think that! Not at all! It's just us Brits don't seem to think we've had a holiday unless we've been to the seaside!
Sorry!
