This is the best app I have come across, but you may have to pay for membership to use it?

Put your dates in the following web site and see what you get

www.campingcheques.co.uk
www.campingcard.co.uk

As far as I know both only give details of the sites that are open for the full date range you enter so if moving around put small date ranges in to see what is available.
The second link is the ACSI card which costs about 20 Euro including the app but expires 31st December. just the app may be cheaper

there seem to be 3 versions of the app, do you know if you buy the largest version, if it will include the small campsite ones as well. The website is confusing me.

I don't think it does. I have the free small campsites app on my Galaxy tab and the subscription app on my phone. I've just checked a couple of small sites and they don't seem to be on the paid up app. Strange. Of coarse you get a much better choice on the paid up app.
Hth, Nick.

Well that got it sorted. Just downloaded the free small campsite app onto the phone as well.

Not sure if I'm missing something here but, other than financially supporting them, is there any reason you're buying and installing apps when you can access it all for free at sites like http://www.eurocampings.co.uk/ via your phone's browser?

Good link, thanks. Off to Spain at the weekend and may test out my new tent if the weather's OK.

I did not know about this site until you mentioned it. Will have to try it when this years subscription of ACSI runs out. Having said that I have been impressed with it so far and it did come recommended by several people on another forum.
