    St. Ives, Cornwall

    There is a place called Calloose, which is at Leedstown, just outside of Hayle/St Ives, have never stayed there but looking to in the future. The Rugby club also provides extra public summer parking, and the mini buses run up and down the hill into St Ives all day for about 50p each. Wise...

    Surf Sites in the South West

    Stowford Farm Meadows near to fantastic surf beach at Woolacoombe North Devon. They are open all year, and swimming pool etc, seasonal pitches, or all year storage whereby you just give them a call when you are coming down, pay a small fee and they tow on and off of a pitch for you, subject to...

    washing line

    I'm sorry, but who are you people to tell me what I can or cannot put on MY pitch. I use a rotary drier when I am away because having children you tend to accumulate a lot of wet towels from swimming, beach, showers etc, and if I try my best to be enviromentaly friendly by not using a tumble...

    super pitch

    I never book a premier/super pitch for the main reason of I like walking backwards and forwards to the tap and the waste disposal. To me it's all part of the fun of caravanning, and gives you the opportunity to meet and talk to fellow campers.

    Devon Cliffs, Haven Site

    Hi Lee. Devon Cliffs is a fantastic site for kids, (cost you a fortune though on all the "pay for extra" things), but, they do have a tendancy to treat the campers like 2nd class citizens. They have little or no interest in any problems you may have, the pitches are crammed together, and the...

    Hi Dougy. I can highly recommend Polmanter at St Ives. Beautiful location, fairly level, and Morvah field has the most lovely toilet/shower facilties for the wheelchair dependant guest.

    Treloy Touring Park, Newquay

    Hi. I went there last year. The pitches are a fair size (stayed on bigger) but in my honest opinion I wouldn,t return there. The noise from the airport and RAF base is unbelievable at times, the toilets were not too pleasant, nearly all staff migrant workers who couldnt understand a word I said...

    Fire Bucket - Do you put one out?

    With ref to Ians comments, I can understand that if all occupants are out of the caravan, and the caravan is engulfed, then I agree, let it burn. The risk to life on a no hoper is not worth it. BUT, if there is a small fire, be it awning or van, then I would be one of the first with my bucket...

    ú4000 loss in 4 months

    A friend of mine was in a similar position last year, and decided not to sell at a great loss, but make the most of it instead. She purchased a larger awning with an annexe at both ends, gave her loads more room.

    Which groundsheet?

    When you use an ordinary pvc groundsheet, the grass will die. Even with the breathable type, if you pitch up for a week or more, when you lift the groundsheet the grass will appear yellow and flat, BUT, it is not dead, it usually recovers quite quickly. Saying that, if you are away for a long...

    site open in february Devon/Cornwall, dog friendly

    Hi, Stowford will not be packed at all at this time of year. It doesn't matter that they rate now as mid season, because if you look at "special offers" they do a full week, mid season, inc of EHU and 6 people for just under
