My favourite UK sites

I like Black Horse Farm CC Site at Densole, Folkestone.  Wardens have always been friendly and helpful.  We often meet a mix of people at this site and can share experiences of continental holidays.  There are pitches specifically for those whishing to stay overnight and catch an early morning ferry, or for late arrivals.

We find this site great for early morning departure for the Tunnel.

We have also used this site before a Channel crossing. We keep meaning to stay longer to explore the local area.Its good that it has a large area outside the main site for early and late arrivals/departure, saves disturbing those that don't have to get up early.

Local area is quite interesting IMHO.  Nice pub almost on the beach at St Margaret's Bay.  Dungeness is really odd but worth a visit.  Nice cheese shop at New Romney - Snowdonia Cheese Company cheese - you really must try!

.........worth visiting Dover Castle and the war tunnels.  Also sit and watch the ferries going to France on the National Trust 'White Cliffs'.  Cake not as good last time we went though!

Thanks for the information on Blackhorse Farm. I’m hoping to visit a few Club sites this year. Are there any other sites that are a favourite?

Depends what sort of area you are looking for, Rowena.  Freshwater East, close to Pembroke is close to a good size beach - dog friendly too.  The last time we went there we were pitched very close to a family that has several dogs, cats, rodent type things and to top it, they had a parrot in the awning.  Great fun was had by all.

If you like inland, why not try Moreton-in-Marsh, in the Cotswolds.  Just a short walk to the town (even I can manage it), with some interesting shops and pubs - pleasamt ambiance and good food.

Godrevy Park, hayle, Cornwall is brilliant with easy access to miles of sandy beach.  Can be breezy though.

Ever tried Trewethett at Tintagel?  If you love walking this is for you, nice walk into Tintagel and the other way you can walk to Boscastle for a pasty and pint before either walking back or catching the bus.  Views to die for if the weather is good that's a bonus, the views are still great.  Thank you Cornwall.
