help with caravan parks anyone?

Options
I would love to surprise my husband to be by arranging a week in a static caravan for a week after our wedding. I've had a quick internet browse, but only the big players seem to be on the internet and they are very expensive. I need to spend as little money as posible. I'm not bothered about entertainment, we can find our own, all we need is a roof over our heads in a different location and a play park for our son.
Where is the best place to start?
Is there a book or a web site or do I need to pick an area and phone tourist info?
I was hoping to get something (maybe even a mid week short break) for c. £100. Is this completely unrealistic?
Many thanks!
Me debt free thanks to MSE :T

    try http://www.daltonsholidays.com/ you can contact the owners of the caravans direct.
    Or you could try the Sun offer but oyu would have to get out and start collecting the tokens today and try and find out if anyone as got any spares
    I Suppose £100 for a mid week break would depend on what time of year if your talking mid August you can forget it
    If you look anything like your passport photo....Your too ill to travel

    Haven holidays do late deals on their site that would probably come in at your budget, not sure if that's the sort of thing you're looking for though.

    Found this site while surfing the web a year or so ago. It's a site for privately owned caravans on Butlins/Haven etc sites.
