Staying in one of the great campsites close to the UK's best theme parks is a great and affordable way to make the most of the attractions.
The one major downside of heading to destinations such as Alton Towers, Thorpe Park and Flamingo Land is how difficult it is to fit everything into a single day, especially when the queues are long during the holidays.
Many theme parks now have on-site hotels or lodges where you can stay and maximise your time on dippers of all sizes, but they usually come at a fairly steep cost.
