When holidaying with children you need to make a few more preparations and pre planning is definitely in order to avoid any nasty surprises. The first thing to consider is location. Ideally you want to go somewhere that is tailored towards children and can cater for their needs. If you are staying on a campsite this may mean looking for one with good facilities, play areas and close to the beach or a town offering entertainment.

Depending on how old your children are, you may look for a place that has children’s clubs onsite allowing the children to go off for a few hours participating in an activity whilst you get a bit of time to do what you wish to.

Car journeys can be hard work with children, so try and plan a few activities that they can do on the way and make sure you stop for regular breaks.
