Easter In Devon/cornwall????

Help,

I've got the Easter weekend off and am looking at ideas for taking the family (1 x hard working wife and 2 x kids under 4) away for a nice break. A caravan park down near Cornwall/Devon seems like what I'm after. Heated indoor pool a must!

Can anyone recommend anywhere nice or even a suitable alternative? I'm travelling from near Oxford. I've a week off later in April - should I wait til then maybe?

What do you think?

Many thanks!

    You may find that if you wait until April you can get a weeks break for the same price or less of a long weekend over the Easter hols? (plus the weather would hopefully be a bit better by then.)

    Take a look at Hoseasons, accomodation has always been great, Woolacombe Bay was nice but caravan a bit grotty for me (that's not through Hoseasons). We are looking at Hoseasons Isle of Wight for April, 4 nights from £128 including ferry.

    Haven's Devon Cliffs resort near Exmouth is one of their flagships I think. Has a big pool and a seperate spa with gym for grown ups. We've been twice.

    It's only about half an hour from nearly the end of the M5 which means the journey is bearable.

    April will be cheaper than Easter, without doubt.
