Spending money for a week in Cornwall :)

Hi everyone
Myself, my partner and our baby daughter are off on our 1st family holiday to Cornwall for a week from 9th June can't wait
We're staying in a caravan on holiday park in Newquay
Roughly how much spending money would be enought for the week including attractions and eating out?
So far we've saved £500 spending money how much more would you think we'd need
Thankyou in advance

How long is a piece of string? £500 is a lot of spending money for 2 for a week if travel and accomodation are already paid for, and I think it's more than enough if you avoid "fine"-dining / mainly eat in the caravan, meals out can be expensive anywhere but costs can be kept down if you stick to family friendly pub chains. Of course there are loads of attractions in Cornwall, but some of the best things - including the beach and countryside - come for free. If you're still anxious about costs, do a bit of planning by visiting this website in advance.
I hope the weather holds out for you xValue-for-money-for-me-puhleeze!

Thankyou for the reply off to browse the website link now
We're hoping to eat out most nights, which I suppose is ok as we're be saving as we won't be staying out late in the on site club due to baby daughters bed time. So we'll be saving on that.
The camp site is near a supermarket so when we get there get settled in we're going to the store and stocking the caravan with food for the week.
The free things in Cornwall countryside and beaches are what we are most looking forward to... Fingers crossed the weather will be nice enough to have a picnic on the beach:D.
We went to cornwall nearly 2 years ago with my family and family friends, lo wasn't born and we took over £1500 spending money which we saved for months! We come home with over £600.... We had no responsibilities then so we did buy quite a few drinks lol. But now this holiday is more for our new little family, I'm such a worrier I'd rather take to much than not enough if that makes sense
