Where in the uk is nice for a holiday..

[RICKY BLAKE 10]

for an activity holiday the lake district is good for a walking although all weather clothing is essential, Wales is nice Pwheli in wales Haven holiday camps are good for entertainment and reasonable fast food style eating London is interesting but not while the olympics are on september can be a good time to go not yet Autumn still a bit of summer warmth left (normally!)

Newquay is amaazing!

 

Im with you on that.

[Miss_S_83 10]

A good call but hard without a car as remote.

 

Ah.. true I suppose, didn't think of that, duh.. sorry OP!

 

Never actually went into Newquay itself though as been told by a few it's a dump?

 

Ummm.... well.. we have done the Skeggy thing but I get bored of it so quickly and miss the beauty... another place we do like is Haven Primrose Valley near Filey- not sure what the public transport is like but lovely views and lots to do on site, Filey itself a nice little seaside town?

I have just managed to find a caravan for skegness ,that does 3 night bookings.

Yes I am off to skegness this will be me first holiday of the year. (Also off to majorca this august ) My best friend is partially sited as she has a hereditary disease causing her to go blind.

 

She has never had a holiday with the kids and she has always been there for me. So because I don't want her to miss out on a holiday with her kids before she loses any more of her sight.

 

I decided I will take them some where So booked skeg, and also where in the uk would you recommend taking a holiday??

As I am going again next year with them and want ideas of where is good for kids.

 

Our children's ages range from 2-10 we have a boy and a girl each.

 

 

It all depends on whether you want weather.

Whitby is not really for kids. If it kids entertain you seek then it's probably skeggy and maybe a day in Butlins because they run organised entertain programmes for the kids.

 

There is so much to do in the area, if money is tight the beach is free!!

 

Our kids love the Yorkshire moors railway, Flamingo Land, Eden Camp, Ryedale Folk museum, Castle Howard, we will never tire of the area!!

An often overlooked holiday destination is Wirral. It has some pretty good beaches, plenty of places for walks (Hilbre Island is a must) and Chester, the Zoo, Liverpool, and Wales are just a short drive away for those rainy days. There's a few amusements at New Brighton but it's like Mablethorpe and a bit depressing. Southport is much nicer.

 

It's very quiet though, but it depends if you want that or not.

 

There's a caravan site at Meols and at Thurstaston.

Newquay is amaazing!

 

We took our children to Cornwall last year. We stayed in a small cottage in the gardens of a manor hotel, (which was quite cheap £480 for a whole week) in Horningtops, just outside Liskeard. We were not next to the sea but able to travel about with ease from our location. We all had a great break (except my husband who simply doesn't like holidays, he would much rather be at home on his PS3 I'm sure)!

 

On our last day we went to Newquay and it really is the best seaside town I have ever visited in the UK. It is a quaint town with nice shops and the beach is a mixture of pebbles, sand and caves. What struck me more so than anything was that it is just so clean! We didn't want to leave.

 

If I was wanting to go somewhere closer to home, it would have to be Scarborough. We normally go here for a couple of days each year.

North West Highlands and Islands of Scotland, basically anywhere from Oban northwards.. but in particular the Wester Ross region is probably some of the most spectacular scenery and coastline in the UK in my opinion.

Have to say Bournemouth don't I:?: Wouldn't ever want to leave now.
