Cheap UK holiday

Hiya

We are looking for a cheap self catering holiday. Details are:

Location: Would prefer Devon, Cornwall or South Wales (we live in Somerset and dont want to travel too far!)
Dates: My partner is off work from 9th July (could leave evening of 8th) to 22nd July
Duration: Anything between 3 and 10 days that fit in between the above dates

It would be for myself, my partner and my 4 month old.

Any ideas??
Thanks

    Don't know if this is cheap enough but we found this campsite last week.
    It's overlooking the sea. We camped and had lovely views of the sea and Lundy Island. If you've got a tent it's only £5.50 each a night (we camped successfully 21 years ago with a four month old!). It also has static caravans for hire see here. Beautiful location with lovely walks and beaches nearby. Good local pubs just down the road. Highly recommended.

    Try https://www.johnfowlerholidays.com - they have seven self catering sites in the West Country, same areas as billieboy suggested, they have been going for years. They had lots of special offers in the paper this weekend (sorry can't find it now) but look on their website and I'm sure there will be details there. We visit North Devon a lot and it's really lovely, I know the site that Billieboy suggests and that's great as well.

    Thanks for those.

    Am currently looking for a chalet/caravan/appartment type deal. We usually go camping but I have enough trouble coping with the baby at home let alone managing in a tent!

    Have checked out the above but the cheapest I can find is £205 which is still a bit much for us. Have book marked both sites for future use tho!
