I am thinking about taking a holiday for a week

By forcing you to call, they gain the opportunity to market to you. They will give you all the reasons why their prices are reasonable and how wonderfully attractive their dump is. They don't want you to make your decision based on price alone.
 
When I look at accommodation listings, of 29 in the area, only one has a price.
The rest say, call for pricing information.
Not likely. Why would I ring all those businesses to get a price? All I can say is that none of them will win my business.
What would be the reason for not displaying prices?
I like your camping idea better.
 

Just go to Travelocity or Expedia or another travel site. They show all the hotels for the are you are traveling to with the prices. There are several sites to choose from. KAYAK, Orbitz, hotels.com, etc.
