Short Break self catering

The east coast is lovely do come and visit. From Lincoln city to the beaches at Cleethorpes and the Wolds in between north east Lincolnshire is very varied.

ninathenana we have found that most big supermarkets can accommodate a ' normal' size motohome. Ours is 24ft long. We do tow a smart car as we like to park away from other campers and like to explore small coastal villages where access roads are very narrow.

Annsixty so sorry about your holidays. Sure DH would just stay at home but I'm trying to keep us getting out for as long as I can. Also looking at coach trips as another alternative. xx

Just checked out AirBNB MOST impressed thank you Teetime and Greyduster!

Thank you all for your kind suggestions. Will certainly look at AirB&B and also the Cresswell sites. xx

We've just come back from a day out to the north east coast. We ended up at Cresswell. There are two private holiday parks there. Golden Sands holiday park looks lovely. Some years ago we stayed at Barmston Beach holiday park, it's near Bridlington. It was the last holiday that we had with my parents, when Dad was still driving. There's lots to do near there, Burton Agnes Hall is beautiful and very interesting. These are caravan parks but quite small and quiet.

We hire caravans on east coast there are big and small sites we like to self cater so we can get up when we like and eat what we want we do eat out a lot though .

We stayed in a nice small apartment at the weekend that DS booked through AirB&B. He has used them a few times. And he's fussy!!

vq H and I have thought from time to time of hiring a campervan. I'm slightly put off though with the idea of parking. I don't mean overnight or stopping somewhere for a brew etc. I'm thinking supermaket car park or car park in town where you stop for an explore on foot. You see campervans towing very small cars or with cycles is that necessary ?
Sorry OP I have no suggestioOP.

We had to sell our caravan when DH became ill but we reinvested in a campervan. It's so much easier. You get in, drive to where you're going, park up and put the kettle on. No support legs to faff with....no trying to hitch it up or unhitch it. No special mirrors for the car.

I can also take a turn driving which I couldn't do with the caravan.

Admittedly it's not as big as our caravan but tbh it's advantages far outweigh the loss of space.

I haven't used it myself yet but my hairdresser goes straight to AirB &B and has rented some lovely apartments at very good prices.

Well I am sorry not to be helpful not knowing the East Coast but just wanted to commiserate with having to give up your caravan. We had to give up our tourer when H no longer coped with towing and bought a static in N Wales which we loved but eventually had to give that up as well.
We don't holiday at all now to my sadness.
Good luck with finding locations and make the most of it while you can.
