Hi everyone,

We are thinking about getting away in the summer for a week or so with the kidlets but we don't want to pay a fortune for accomodation. We are thinking of camping (cant imagine this to be a sensible idea with littles though), campsite caravan, or booking a bach. Anyone had any experiences we could learn by?

If you are into camping, Tauranga Bay is fantastic! They even have hot showers!! There is a kids playground and the beach is beautiful (the campgraound is literally on the beach. They also have little units that you can rent if you dont want to do the whole tent thing!

Sorry Lizzle, its a bit more than an hour, so might not work for you.
How about Goat Island? We are planning on going there this summer, have been teaching DD (she is 5) how to snorkel
