As a child I have very fond memories of holidays we had together as a family. It didn’t really matter to me where we were or even if the weather wasn’t great, it was just great to be altogether doing something we enjoyed.

Holidays can be expensive and therefore many people can only afford to go once a year or every other year, but I strongly recommend not putting off going away because you only have a small budget. You can still have a great holiday on a tight budget if you are willing to go back to basics a bit. A ten pitch can cost as little as £5 per night on a basic site but if you are only planning on being in the ten for sleeping you do not need to worry much about the entertainment on site and facilities. There are many activities you can do when on holiday that cost little or nothing such as going for a walk, building sandcastles or exploring local places of interest such as free museums or galleries.
