Hiya,


We are looking to book a last minute break, not too far from London suitable for a 3 year old and 1 year old. Ideally somewhere with facilities for kids but a bit rustic and relaxed and good value for money. Possibly searching for the Holy Grail of holidays but thought I'd put it out there!


Thanks!

You might find "good value for money" and "near London" a bit conflicting! Whitstable, Deal, Camber Sands, Aldeburgh, Southwold all nice but not terribly cheap (except caravan park at Camber Sands) - all less than 2 hours from London (Deal and Whitstable more like 1.5 hours). However, the saving in travelling time/hassle is a distinct bonus if you can find somewhere affordable... Dymchurch (Kent coast, near Folkestone) has a lovely kids funfair and a big sandy beach as well as a small railway but you probably wouldn't want to stay there for a week.


If you're looking at the moment you might get better prices as going out of school holidays? Hope you find somewhere nice.

    • Dog kennel isn't a great name for a school. I agree that it's ridiculous for the name to put anyone off going there, but don't see any issue with them rebranding if the parents and children prefer a new name. The school is surrounded by historical 'groves' (reflected in the names of Camberwell Grove, Grove park and Grove Vale for example), so it's not a totally random name. 
    • It might help if there are body cams to record evidence and a presence maybe a deterrent but I very much doubt a park warden would intervene with obnoxious and violent thugs - children or not. We need police for that.  
    • I had a leaky toilet cistern and Niko came out the same day and not only fixed the leak but thoroughly cleaned off the years of calcium build-up. His attention to detail was matched by his kind humanity. The result was a completely renovated toilet which has never worked more efficiently as well as 'service with a smile'. MANY THANKS NIKO!!!  
    • I am trying to find out about people's experiences of the 4+ and 7+ assessments. I am a teacher and have a wealth of experience tutoring for theses assessments (including my own son), but it's always good to keep on top of things as they always make tweaks to them. TIA!
