Coastal camping 

If you're a lover of the coast, you can't go wrong with a tent holiday that's on a beach campsite. Spend your days exploring hidden coves, strolling along sandy beaches, taking to the waves or rock-pooling with family and friends. Some of these tent campsites also welcome campervans and caravans.
