Eurocamp / Key Camp etc

[bestinshow]

We 're looking to book a summer holiday with the kids at possibly one of the above, however to be honest I'm a bit surprised at how expensive it is. I'm looking for suggestions as to anywhere else I can look which is ideally in Europe, lots of other kida, kids club / facilities etc, not full of the wrong type of people etc

Thomson Premier, Club Med etc are too expensive I think, any other suggestions ? Thanks

Tony

All hols within the schools holidays are expensive compared to going just out of them, thats a fact, doesnt matter where you go.

Yeah I know, however the figures I've been given to sleep in a tent for a week are a bit pricey.

Was wondering if anyone could recommend a similar set up ( lots of kids etc )

This is my field so I can offer a bit of info.
Decide where you want to go.
Choose a site in the brochure and contact them direct to rent their MH or tent to save a considerable sum.

Euro and Keycamp are owned by Holiday Breaks,a big concern.Try Canvas and also Vacansoleil.
Don't get sucked into the "it's a Yelloh site,so it must be good".In the main they are nothing more than marketing groups that the owner pays into.

Another similar type is Siblu, which I think you can use Club Card Vouchers on. I haven't used them so can't provide any feedback on them.

I can recommend Key Camp after a good holiday in Sardinia a couple of years ago.

Most camp sites in Europe offer accomodation. Look at the Eurocamp/Keycamp website and pick the site you like and google the name, most sites are translated and much cheaper direct.

This is definitely the way to go - my brother worked for Eurocamp for a season, and we rented a similar mobile home direct from the campsite for a fraction of the cost. Most of the sites that Eurocamp etc are bigger and have their own kids clubs/evening entertainment etc.
