There is a big difference between culture and nature to bad manners and inconsiderate d**kheads.
We shouldn't have to suck it up it's about time decent people and the law dealt with these inconsiderate and ignorant people. Why do we allow these people to win....
Fortunately it’s not like that everywhere. We’ve just got back from some time away in the van, two different sites for two nights each, no noise problems on either. By 10pm all was nice and quiet. Worst problem we had was at the second site the toilets and showers were in short supply, and some did tend to spend as long as they normally would at home in the shower, with a small queue forming outside….
A couple of families camped together across the way from us this week they had 6 small kids up and out, screaming there little nuts off from 8 am till 10,30 pm zero parenting .
I had a close call in the foothills close to the Spanish Pyrenees a couple of years ago. The satnav was struggling with lanes and tracks, I spotted a rough looking house and thought I’d ask for directions. It took a split second for the dogs to attack and I just made back to the van. I won’t make that mistake again.
Nobody came to see what was happening.
Our last few stops have been on adult only sites. They have been so peaceful and relaxing with no stress. Its the future 
Most of the time I agree, just leaving one in Bosworth which has been wonderfully quiet.Our last few stops have been on adult only sites. They have been so peaceful and relaxing with no stress. Its the future
Doesn’t always stop yapping and barking dogs though…..
Whilst visiting Bosworth Battlefield yesterday there was a toddler sitting with mum quietly. Couple come passed with a medium sized dog that goes mad towards the child for no reason. Child in tears. Couple walk off saying “it’s okay rover(?), good boy”. Smiling! WTAF. The kid is going to be frightened of dogs for a long time. This is exactly what happened with my granddaughter and at 7 she is still wary of dogs.
I used to love dogs, but the selfishness and absolute lack of awareness of some owners is giving them a bad name.
Don’t get me started on fouling! Our estate is pretty good and owners seem to mostly clear up. Country lane two minutes away its everywhere - need your wellies for blackberry and sloe picking!
Yeah there's obviously loads of dog owners who just don't bother when they know that nobody is looking. Fortunately it's not quite as bad as the 70s and 80s when picking up dogshit was hardly even a thing and "who's trodden it in?" was a phrase you'd hear often.
We’re currently at Newlands, near Lyme Regis, we were here about 6 weeks ago and it’s night and day difference in the numbers of people. But, by 10pm it’s quiet, so it shows that some sites can be quiet. When we pulled up there were 15+ kids right near our pitch and I was thinking ‘here we go…’, but I couldn’t have been more wrong.

Know we're going off topic with poo talk but I'll be honest if we're out for country walk I'll flick the poo into the hedgerows off the track/path, infact been on some campsite who actively encourage this. Just seems more environmentally better than putting it in a bag and leaving it hanging from a branch. We have it down to a fine art now and the Mrs is much happier not having to carry her poo back home.

At least it went white and powdery after a few days back then.
