Camping Prospers as Credit Crunch kicks in

The BBC today has claimed that the Camping industry in Wales is flourishing with the effects of the credit crunch.

As families tighten their belts they can’t afford to go abroad and spend lots of money on a holiday so are opting for a cheaper alternative in camping. Instead of costing a family thousands they can have a weeks family camping for as little as £105.

Welsh camping sites have said that they have healthy bookings for the summer season and camping equipment is blooming. Dave Beynon, of Three Cliffs Bay Holiday Park on the Gower, said that he was turning away 100 customers a day as there is simply not any room left on the campsite.

Another campsite manager suggested that they have 60 per cent more campers this year than last and this has been put down to the credit crunch.

So why not pick up your tent, grab your sandals and head down to your local campsite for a fun, friendly and cheap holiday.
