This half-term enjoy some family breaks where children under 12 can stay for just a penny
Get a head start this half-term on ticking off some of National Trust’s list of ‘50 Things To Do Before You’re 11 and Three Quarters‘ with the help of The Caravan Club. A number of the club’s sites are perfect pitch-up spots for those looking to enjoy a few of the things on the list and some are even available where children under 12 can stay for just a penny per night.
Enjoy some of the exciting things on the list such as star gazing, flying a kite, and going on a really long bike ride before the half-term is up at any of these reasonably priced pitch-up sites.
Head over to Ferry Meadows Caravan Club Site where a plethora of Halloween themed activities are offered. The site, close to the Burghley House Sculpture Gardens, is the perfect place for families to search for hidden pumpkins on the garden’s pumpkin trail.
For those looking to complete number 44 off the 50 things to do, birdwatching, you’re in luck as the site is set in Nene Park where families can spend their mornings looking out for any of the many species of birds.
Families can also check off number 11 on the list by taking a really long bike ride on the 60 miles of off-road cycleway at the site.
To pitch up at this site, you’ll need to shell out £175.50 per week for a family of four based on two adults and two kids.
Next up is Trevedra Farm, a working farm and campsite with sea views overlooking Land’s End and Isles of Scilly. Gwenver Beach leading to Sennen Cove is just a short walk away.
At this site, families can look to complete at least three of the things on the list such as heading to the farm, number 23, head down to the beach to explore the rockpools, number 37, and maybe even catch a crab, number 29.
Pitching up at this site starts from £133.14 per week for a family of four based on two adults and two kids.
Finally, head over to The Woods Caravan Park to enjoy 180 degree views of Ochil Hill. In the autumn, the hills are covered in purple heather, creative picturesque landscapes anyone can enjoy.
Families even have the chance to see woodpeckers, roe deer, wild hare, and even red squirrels at this site as it is located close to the nature reserve, Gartmorn Dam Country Park. Children can complete number 12, making a trail with sticks, at this park as it provides three miles of path.
At this site, those under 12 can also tick off some more things on the National Trust’s list such as creating some wild art, number 18, and hunt for bugs, number 31.
Pitching up this site will cost you from £152.39 per week for a family of four based on two adults and two kids.
Be sure to enjoy the half-term with your kids at some of these sites and you’ll be helping them complete this list in no time!
