Finally, read a handful of recent reviews rather than just the star rating. Look for comments on cleanliness, how the caravan or lodge compared to its photos, and how helpful the on-site team were if something needed sorting. A pattern across several reviews tells you more than any one glowing or grumbling comment on its own.
Midweek arrival is the other thing worth trying. Weekend slots get booked up first, particularly for short breaks, so a Monday or Tuesday arrival often has availability when a Friday one doesn't. If your work pattern allows it, a midweek break also tends to mean quieter on-site facilities, since most other guests are working to the same Friday-to-Friday pattern you're avoiding.
Footwear deserves more thought than it usually gets. Bring proper walking shoes or trainers for dunes, coastal paths and pebble beaches, sandals for round the caravan and the pool if your park has one, and something you don't mind getting wet for rockpooling or a paddle. Flip-flops alone rarely survive a full week of coastal walking.
Families with younger children often lean coastal, since a beach gives you a ready-made activity that needs very little planning: buckets, spades and a few hours, and everyone's entertained. Couples or those wanting a slower pace, or a base for cycling and walking rather than swimming, often prefer the countryside or Broads setting, where the pace of the Tingdene Holiday Parks matches the pace of the surroundings.
If you're travelling with a dog, check the pet policy in detail rather than assuming all units accept them. Ask which specific caravans or lodges are dog-friendly, whether there's an extra charge, and whether there are dog walking areas on site. This is one of the most common causes of a frustrating check-in when it's left unchecked.
There's also a cost angle to booking early, separate from availability. Parks often price the same week differently depending on how far out you book and how full that week already is, so an early booking for a peak week can work out better value than trying to catch a late deal that never quite materialises for the exact dates you need.
