Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

I'm having trouble trying to find a site for the half term.
Can find sites with pitches that have no electric hookup, but I want Electricity.
And too many are booking my phone only - not helpful when I'm sitting down at 9pm to start looking.

Pretty much anywhere - but starting looking at Norfolk and then briefly in the south west

I was looking at this one for a weekend in July (it's near where I used to camp as a teen) think it's got spaces for half term.....

Got in quick this time.
Booked a site for the August bank holiday.
Going to Kessingland.

I have done this without consulting her who must be obeyed.

So I have probably got it wrong.

lol Stander :)
I've booked a cottage for the family just under Kinder Scout - they've all made it quite clear that they don't approve of my choice :-0

So I head to Great Yarmouth (Kessingland) for the August bank holiday and then the following weekend I am at Silverstone camp site from the Thursday through to Sunday (not motor racing related).

Hardly worth driving home on the Monday is it?

First in an occasional series of site reviews:

The Larches, on the A595, nr Bothel, Cumbria.
Chosen as it's about halfway between Carlisle (daughter visiting) and Keswick.
Somewhat dated, with collapsing and rotting static caravans dotted around, BUT - really large pretty flat pitches, beautifully quiet - apart from the dawn chorus
Water and electric on the pitch.

Toilet block was great - a little 1970s vintage maybe


with 6 or 7 individual shower rooms (centrally heated) in each ladies/gents block.
Library in a little summer house
Games to borrow
Shop selling camping/caravanning stuff
5 minutes drive from a decent pub for meals.

Recommended if you like quiet sites :)
