    North Brittany

    Having 'done' quite a bit of western Brittany we fancy somewhere around the St. Malo, Dinan area for next May. Any suggestions for sites with, preferably, fully-serviced ,Grand Confort pitches would be gratefully received. Just the two of us so not fussed about bells and whistles, bars, pools...

    Fully-serviced in France

    Can anyone recommend any fully-serviced pitches in or around the Loire region of France? Also .being extra picky it would ideally be adults only and.or not one of the fun-for-all the family type gargantuan sites also. Hoping for too much? Any suggestions gratefully recieved. ACB

    Carrying bikes

    I tow a Lunar Qasar 524 with a 56 plate Mondeo estate. I would like to take two lightweight adult bikes on our trips but not sure of the best way to carry them. Noseweight is an issue for me as, try as I might through careful packing, I cannot get a level rig. There's a noticeble dip between the...

    Satellite setup

    I have an excellent Avtex 16" tv and usually in this country receive very good pictures through its freeview and my Lunar's fixed aerial. I also have a Sky+ HD box which I've just stopped using having cancelled my subscription to sky. My question is - what would I need to get to receive...

    Spare Wheel

    Many, many thanks for all the replies. So I'll get a spare and I could *** along to my local Chichester Caravans and get one but does anyone know of a good reliable online source wher I might get one a bit cheaper, just by way of comparison? Cheers.

    Spare Wheel

    We've got a 2008 Lunar Qasar 524 fitted with a power mover. I'm wondering whether I should get a spare wheel & carrier fitted as we've lots of trips planned for this year. Clearly a sensible precaution, but I'm wondering if the additional weight in addition to the power mover will cause load...

    Cadac barbecues

    Cheers. I'll give that a go. Just wanted to check that it was actually removable before the brute force route was attempted.

    Cadac barbecues

    Is it possible to remove the centre stem from the Cadac barbecue for easier storage and transport? I know I slotted it in when new, but have mislaid manual and cannot seem to remove it. Any help appreciated.

    Where to take them

    We are planning to take our two grandchildren aged 6 and 4 away in our 'van next June. We'd like a site that was fully-serviced, but had a good play area and within a couple of hours towing from Uckfield, East Sussex and ideally in an area with children's things to go and see or do. Is this too...
