Camber Sands is one of the few places on England's south coast where you can park within walking distance of a dune-backed beach and still pay under £100 a night for a room. The cheapest stays in Camber are holiday parks, not traditional hotels. Pontins - Camber Sands Holiday Park and SBL48 Camber Sands Holiday Park both sit within a few minutes' walk of the sand, and both are geared toward families who want a kitchen, a pool, and a bar on site rather than room service or a concierge.
The most reviewed budget pick is LBL18 - Camber Sands Holiday Park, rated 7.7/10 by guests. It has a heated indoor pool, free parking, and a minimarket, and the beach is about 800 metres away. Parkdean's MP676 Camber Sands (rated 7.5/10) adds a restaurant and a bar, and the Ashford International station is 34 km away if you're coming by train. For the lowest rates, book mid-week outside school holidays and avoid August, when prices at these holiday parks can double.
