Haven Camping and Touring Parks - 2021 - The Complete Guide
Haven Camping and Touring in South West England and Wales
Haven's camping and touring park in Cornwall - Perran Sands
Perran Sands in Cornwall has the biggest camping and touring area of all the Haven sites, including a whopping 344 pitches.
It's in a coastal location about half way along the county next to a dog friendly beach.
The holiday park scores 4/5 on most review sites and has got indoor and outdoor swimming pools as well as a 'lazy river'. There are also dozens of things to do onsite including six places to eat out, six playgrounds, a pottery studio, nature trails, minigolf, trampolines and a surf school so you can fall over repeatedly.

Haven camping and touring parks in Dorset - Littlesea and Seaview
Haven has got four caravan sites in Dorset but only two of them have camping and touring facilities.
They're both in the Weymouth area and are called Littlesea Holiday Park and Seaview Holiday Park. Littlesea has roughly twice as many pitches as Seaview (142 compared to 82 when we checked).
They both score 4/5 from most reviewers and both have indoor and outdoor swimming pools.
The main difference is the location. Littlesea is a half hour walk from Weymouth's Esplanade. It's also close to the coastal path which goes to Chesil Beach. Meanwhile, Seaview camping and touring site is about 15 minutes walk to a beach.

Haven's camping and touring park in Somerset - Burnham on Sea
Haven's Burnham on Sea camping and touring park scores 4/5 from reviewers on TripAdvisor and it has a modest number of pitches for campers and tourers (68 to be precise).
Its best feature are its easy access to the beach and its onsite fishing lakes, which isn't offered at many Haven campsites.
There are indoor and outdoor swimming pools as well as aerial adventures, three places to eat and an entertainment venue.
Haven's other holiday park in Somerset is Doniford Bay. It gets slightly better reviews but doesn't have pitches for camping and touring.

Haven camping and touring parks in Wales - Hafan y Môr, Greenacres, Kiln Park and Presthaven
Four of Haven's Welsh holiday parks offer camping and touring for caravans.
Our pick is Haven Hafan y Môr Camping and Touring Park which has 75 pitches. The resort is one of the largest and best equipped of all the Haven caravan parks. The highlight is the modern and massive indoor swimming pool but it also has a coastal location, nine restaurants, nine playgrounds and an adventure village with things like high ropes. It scores 4/5 on TripAdvisor.

It currently scores 4/5 on TripAdvisor and is next to a quiet shingly beach. It's got loads of space for tents, touring caravans and motorhomes with 187 pitches. It's also a dog friendly campsite.

Haven camping and touring in The Lake District/Cumbria - Lakeland
Haven's Lakeland Camping and Touring park has one of the largest areas for tents, touring caravans and motorhomes out of all the Haven resorts. In all, there are 177 pitches including 'tent, electric and Euro electric pitches'.
It isn't technically in the Lake District but is by the Cumbrian coast. The local beach isn't the sort of place you'll be building sandcastles but there are coastal walks.
Onsite there are outdoor and indoor swimming pools as well as golf, tennis, bowling and other sports.
It scores 4/5 from customers on most review sites. It's also a dog friendly camping/touring site.

Haven's camping and touring site in Northumberland - Haggerston Castle
There are two Haven resorts in Northumberland but only Haggerston Castle is open to campers and touring caravans/motorhomes.
The camping and touring area is one of the larger ones with 140 pitches.
The holiday park is also a good size with five places to eat, a simple indoor swimming pool, a golf course, boating lake, aerial adventures and various sports and activities for kids.
It scores 3.5/5 on Trip Advisor at the time of typing, which is a bit behind some Haven touring and camping sites.

Haven camping and touring sites in Scotland - Seton Sands and Craig Tara
Both of Haven's Scottish holiday parks welcome campers and tourers.
Craig Tara and Seton Sands have both got about 40 pitches but Seton Sands is the smaller of the two sites and it tends to get slightly better reviews. It's about half an hour from Edinburgh and it has enough onsite for most people including an indoor swimming pool, fishing, archery, golf and soft play.
Craig Tara camping and touring site is one of Haven's larger resorts. It was once a Butlins site and it has one of the largest waterparks/swimming pool that you'll find at a Haven resort. The site also has a golf course, six places to eat and drink, playgrounds and lot of kids activities (some of which you pay extra for).
I'd go for Craig Tara if you like your resorts big and busy or Seton Sands if you prefer a more modestly sized camping and touring park.

Haven's camping and touring parks in Lincolnshire - Golden Sands and Thorpe Park
Both of Haven's Lincolnshire holiday parks have camping and touring - one called Haven Golden Sands Camping and Touring site and another with the confusing name of Haven Thorpe Park Camping and Touring site (rumour has it that someone once turned up looking for Thorpe Park Theme Park, even though it is 180 miles away...).
The two camping and touring parks get similar reviews (3.5/5 on TripAdvisor) and both have a good number of pitches. Golden Sands has 172 pitches whilst Thorpe Park camping and touring site has 120 pitches. They've both got indoor and outdoor swimming pools.
The most notable difference is the location. Golden Sands is by the coast just north of Skegness in Ingoldmells whilst Thorpe Park holiday park is much further north in Cleethorpes (quite near to Grimsby).

Haven's touring and camping parks in Norfolk - Caister on Sea and Wild Duck
Haven has several holiday parks in Norfolk but it's just Wild Duck and Caister on Sea which offer camping and touring.
I would start with (bizarrely named) Wild Duck for camping and touring in Norfolk as it gets terrific reviews (4.5/5) and has about twice as many pitches as Caister on Sea. There are about 100 pitches at Haven Wild Duck Camping and Touring Park and about 50 at Haven Caister on Sea Camping and Touring Site. Wild Duck has simple indoor and outdoor swimming pools, but it's not the sort of park which has flumes and slides.
The main downside with Wild Duck camping and touring is that you can't walk to the beach, which is unusual for a Haven resort. You'll need to drive for about 20 minutes, whereas Caister on Sea camping and touring lives up to its name with easier beach access.
