We tend to go camping now, as we can't really afford a foreign holiday...
We're off to both Wales and Scotland at the end of August/beginning of September, one is a camping holiday, one is a rented cottage. The dogs will come with us on both holidays.
We'll probably buzz up to the Lakes for one or 2 weekends camping during the next couple of months, but since it's only a 45 min drive, it doesn't seem like a proper "holiday"
My mum or sister come and house sit for us whilst we're away, to look after the chooks and bunnies and veg patch. My mum always refers to it as her "holiday in the country"
