    My favourite camp site is called Sykeside in the Lake District - no beach, but next to a lake where you can take a blow up boat or paddle. Middle of walking country, highest road in LD between Windermere and Ullswater , basic but great showers and bar/ food - aimed at walkers but I find they make great parents so site has lots of well behaved children!

    I can't remember what its called , but there is a campsite at the top of the cliff with a walk down to the beach at lulworth cove/durdle door. I think it might a big holiday park type site.

    this site isn't near the beach, but we liked it ( although a bit bigger and more organised than we usually like! ) Campsites Devon, Caravan Parks Devon and Caravan Storage in Devon, UK when we went it had a great waterplay area which the children enjoyed! ( called south breazle )

    I use The UK Camp Site for Tent and Caravan Campers in the UK to look up campsites. we prefer the small sites away from the maddening crowds and haven't yet camped at one near a beach!

    my friend recommends these as close (ish) to the beach Serenity Touring Caravan & Camping Park - Home Page Holiday Park Whitby | Caravan site & Campsite Whitby | Caravan site & Campsite Robin Hood she sent me the link to this site Beach Campsites UK

    enjoy!

    I have always looked at this site and thought how great it looks but never stayed.

    It's not far from Brighton - and South coast - but Brighton, despite loads of families visiting doesn't have sand, or coves etc.... Along the coast a little though and sand appears.

    I've done Lulworth Cove/Durdle Door. It's lovely - haven't done it with kids though but lots of people do.
