Haven touring, out of season deals.

[chaser]

No, it’s Blue Dolphin we’re booked at. I know no better but Reighton and Primrose Valley were both fully booked, presumably because they’re more ‘kid friendly’? Not to worry though as I’ll be taking my speargun anyway.

We have used all three and never been disappointed

Last time I went to the Mablethorpe haven site (pre Jasmin camping) it was like a ploughed field, had to take a run to get on the concrete slab (old static bases I think) and nearly had to be towed off! Never again

Tried the last 2 easter holidays with our 2 family groups staying I statics.
2023 swamp conditions. We pitched on road so happy.
They said they were installing drainage . Went 2024 easter same family group. The camping pitches including the hardstanding where totally inaccessible with a motorhome. The hard standings are a tiny concrete island in a sea of mud. We didn't even try staying in our motorhome. Shame because kids love the facilities.
Never again for us too.

Don't think I would risk a grass pitch now anywhere with our 4250kg van. Even the bike is sliding about and spinning on the grass now.

Does anyone know if the freedom trail membership is still running?

It's on the back of a current leaflet we were given this week, but online, the T&Cs state that membership is valid until 31/12/23.

you used to get it automatic after you booked a break but they say they now email it after you have booked. must admit i was at Skegness a few weeks ago and don't think i got my freedom trail discount (got my EMBdiscount) but will be ringing to check.
Edit i have just rung and got it re-enstated for this season and i have to ring again next year for next seasons so yes it is still running but i think you may have to ring .

Just booked Thornwick Flamborough for 3 nights on 4th Nov £7 a night for pitch plus £4 for facilities (assume EHU) and £1 for dog so £12 a night. Not all sites allow dogs so limited but cheap enough as got indoor pool and other activities.

I'm trying, for the first time, a PARKDEAN site near Burgh Castle, Lowestoft.

It is, if I remember correctly, £44 for 4nts with EHU which is cheap enough BUT, the grass pitches I was offered are muddy and, it's out of the way with no bus service that I can see and other camper.......iffy?

(but today I have been watching the American F1 and investigating a yellow EML that came on yesterday while travelling.
Now extinguished, so will explore more tomorrow!)

So far, not that impressed!

Today the sun is shining (everything looks better when the sun is shining) and am sitting outside the Fisherman's Inn overlooking Reedham and the Berney fens.

Probably not as bad as I first thought!
