Most summer holidays, in the last fortnight, we go away camping to Cornwall. This year we are going somewhere slightly different, Devon. Okay, it’s not massively different geographically but its much closer in time as we can get there almost entirely on the M5. The A30 is OK, until its not, and then you are stuck in long queues with no way around it.
So this year, no thanks.
In August we will go to Dart River camp site, near the moors. Within the camp site itself there is a few adventure playgrounds, and other cool things like canoeing, rope climbs and zorbing.
Sounds pretty good as several of these on site activities are included in the price of camping.
We will still be near beaches, sadly pebble beaches not sand. There will be the moorland to explore with a picnic rucksack. Something different from the city for the boys.
We have booked this so far in advance as looking forward to things is better than sulking.
You will have fun.. Xx
Sounds fun! We go to Padstow every year and I know what you mean about A30! Devon is so much nearer.
Padstow isn’t far from where we used to go. St Eval, between Newquay and st Merryn on the coastal roads. Last last few miles are most of the journey time!
Just off the motorway, but not near enough to hear traffic. Thats better I think.
