Holiday parks planning to open July 4?

[goats]

The 'flexible' 5 mile limit is costing me hard cash. I booked a site in England last year and kept the booking live hoping that the site would be open for my July holiday. Good news is that it will be open and Ive paid for the holiday. Bad news is that I live in Cardiff 30 miles from border with England so well outside the 5 mile travel limit.

No refund possible as the site is open. If I lived in Chepstow the Wales rules would allow me to travel to England as its local.

But you won’t get stopped going to England, I really doubt you will coming back. Sense will have prevailed, one hopes by early July anyway. So many people will be on the rd police won’t be able to stop everyone

I hope yo are right. Motorhomes and caravans are very conspicuous on the roads though and a target for the Heddlu

As the sites are all supposed to be opening in July 10th I reckon there will be a few in the rd that day......

Not surprised with Kim Jong Drakeford in charge......

Had an E-mail from a caravan site in Pembrokeshire that we've been to a few times that they were taking bookings from 10th July. Gave them a call and the've been given the go ahead to open minus the pool and bar.

What would be the point in going?

Butlins are supposed to be re-opening 16th July, day before we're scheduled to visit.

Oh well, I wouldn’t know. England’s folks are allowed holidays, in Wales we are not, not ever....ever I tell you.......

Folk in England are not permitted to have a holiday in the UK. In fact, we can't stay overnight anywhere in England apart from the support bubble scenario.

But you'll be OK from 4 July when many campsites in England will be open. In Scotland they will be open from 15 July and in Wales........who knows?

At least you can plan and have hope, what have we got? I guess we are going to be spending our cash in the Forest of Dean or north Devon this summer.....

That hasn't been announced, has it? I rang campsite in Somerset on Monday and the owner hadn't had any news of campsites opening or the conditions that would apply.

If the 5 mile rule is in place most of us won't even be able to go to Trecco Bay. If you're daring and want to risk the wrath of the Authorities, perhaps Porthkerry Park.

Doh!!
The police will be watching the park now.... they read this message board, don't you know that?

Ive read alot of sites are accepting bookings from then, i have a friend who has booked most of Aug on various sites, he worked during lockdown and his boss has said he can have Aug off with the kids

Maybe campsite owners are taking bookings and hoping for the best. The guy I spoke to didn't even know if he could make the showers and loos available even if restrictions are to be lifted so that people could stay overnight.

Have a look at the Caravan and Motorhome Club website. They have information on their sites opening 4 July.

Also my son has just booked a site in Coombe Martin for early July

Strange really. Today's Express website quotes Grant Shapps as saying "“We know that the next review… or the next potential date for an unlock, if it’s possible, if the science allows, is July 4 onwards. So it won’t be weeks and weeks away.”

I think we can take that date as gospel unless there Is a big surge in virus cases

Do you take anything a politicain says as gospel? God help you.

I think he only kept the 5 mile rule in to show people he is in charge and he won't be 'bullied' into making uncautious decisions.

Even though nobody is really listening to that anyway
