A Cheap Family Holiday

These days money is tight for the majority of people but with life being stressful a holiday is still very much needed especially if you have a young family with kids who get bored if they spend the whole summer holiday in one place.
It has however become tough for families to afford a holiday what with the economic crisis and the rising cost of holidays taken in school holiday times.
There is however a very clear and obvious answer to this problem.
Camping has been one way of holidaying which is making a comeback.
It is proving to be the perfect solution to hard times when people do not have the money to go on holiday aboard.
When you consider the prices of travelling to the airport, the cost of the flights, hotels, food and any extras you can easily see how the price of a holiday can add up.
On the other hand camping can be a lot cheaper.
In fact it isn't even in the same league, A camping pitch can be anything from £6 to £10 a night which over the week is the cost of a double room in a cheap hotel for one night.
After that you will have petrol and food but that is it.
This can if done correctly be done on an amazing budget that once you have done once you will be coming back for time and time again.
The equipment that you will need to buy consists of a tents, maybe a heater, a cooker and a few other bits that will make camping easier but this is an outlay that happens the first time only.
After that you simply use the same equipment again making the 2nds time and each time after that even cheaper than the first.
How amazing is that? If you wish to make it even cheaper buy a large 10-12 man tent of borrow from a friend and go with another family.
That way you can share the cost and it becomes even cheaper.
It is of course wise to only do this with families you are on a very good basis with.
Not only do families get the holiday they deserve but it actually helps keep money in the UK's economy as people stay in the country and visit the UK sites such as the seaside and country parks.
In the long run this will help investment into the tourism sites of the UK.
So if you are a family in need of a holiday but you do not have the funds to go abroad then think about a camping holiday.
It is cheaper than any other holiday and will allow the family to bond as well as get back to nature.
