Children's camping holidays
For children
If you're travelling with kids, then you'll want to know what's on offer. Whether they're tots or teens, there's plenty of brilliant stuff to keep them entertained. After all, if they're happy, you're happy.
Baby packs
We've not forgotten the smallest members of the family! Not only are all our holidays baby friendly, we can also save you the trouble of having to bring loads of baby kit with you. Our special baby pack consists of a travel cot, high chair and baby bath. It's free for low season holidays (departing before 25 June or after 4 September 2010) or pre-bookable for just £3 per night at other times. Simply request at time of booking.
Children aged 0 to 3
All our parcs are perfect for children but we've picked out a few which are especially toddler friendly. With easy terrain, specially adapted crèches, large paddling pools and safe playgrounds, they're terrific for toddlers. Add grassy emplacements, and even a baby gate on your Al Fresco decking and you've got the perfect environment for roaming tots.

Al Fresco Kidz Club
There's nowhere better for the fun to start than at the Al Fresco Kidz Club play tent. Run exclusively for Al Fresco customers, there are tons of stimulating and imaginative activities for 4 to 12 year olds and the groups are small enough to make everyone welcome.
You'll find Al Fresco Kidz Club at:

All of our Kidz Club staff have workedwith children before, are CRB checked and at least one member at every club will have a professional childcare qualification so you can relax knowing that your children will not only have a great time, but are in safe hands.
Children aged 4 to 7
Most parcs host their own kids' clubs in modern and comfortable purpose-built play rooms which provide the safe and welcoming environment your children need.
The multi-lingual staff provide well-organised, age-specific activities so that children get the most from their play with children of their own age group. After all, most of us know, what's fun for a 4 year old might not be fun for a 7 year old. Here's just some of the fun stuff they can get up to (some activities carry a local charge): painting, music & songs, pony trekking, bouncy castle, crazy golf, pottery workshop, treasure trails, bug hunts, mini disco, circus games.
Children aged 8 to 12
Older kids are well catered for too, and there are tons of opportunities to make new friends around the parc and at the kids clubs. Whether they're budding equestrians, swimmers, or prefer something a little more sedate, they'll have a whale of a time.
And although we know that kids love a bit of independence from the folks as they get older, you can rest assured that they are being looked after by experienced, multi-lingual staff. Here's just a taster of the great stuff they can get up to: Magic workshop, pedaloes, mini golf, tennis, pool, football, detective games, sports competitions, video games, music forum, handicrafts, bracelet making, preparation and performance of evening shows.
Teenagers
Teenagers haven't been forgotten either. We know that going on holiday with mum and dad can seem really uncool, but with all the stuff that's happening on parc, we bet they'll unplug the i-pod, forget all about that and get stuck in.
Here's just a selection of things to keep them out of mischief (some activities carry a local charge): Sports competitions, volleyball, fishing, scuba diving, archery, football, horse riding, discos, dance classes, off-parc excursions under supervision.
Wet, Wild & Wonderful
Of course, no holiday would be complete without a serious drenching, and all our parcs have great pools or beaches, and most have brilliant water complexes with tropical pools and slides. Watch out for lazy rivers and wavepools too!
