Motorhomes tend to go on and off site while a caravan stays put with only the towing car moving - which causes less damage to the grass.

I have been to plenty of sites where some dog owners just don't care. Some even let the dog out to do it's business early in the morning before anyone else is up. I have seen with my own eyes an owner watching his dog deficate then just walk away leaving the poor warden to clear up his mess (no...

Are there any caravan parks in North Scotland which have banned dogs? I am fed up with stepping into my van and only noticing I have stepped in something when my carpet is caked in ....?

Midges on the West Coast are here for the same reason we are - the West is far more beautiful than the East. Rumour has it the severe cold this winter will have killed them - but don,t bet on it

We were plagued by the company behind this promotion, they must have called us a dozen times over the winter. We told them it was no good unless we had a clubhouse etc where we could make up the loss of pitch revenue. It is not the campsites conning you it is the newspaper - they are in this...

Don't assume because you send an email that it arrives. We had an email arrive from a guest over three months after she had taken her holiday (she booked by telephone as she did not get an answer). Not getting replies from six sites would point to a problem your end. Even sites not open in...

Steve. Speaking as one of those people you mention, tell the warden/owner that you appreciate his hard work. That is all the reward we want - and it makes up for the ones who have no idea what goes on in the winter when they say things like "it must be great to have five months off a year".

The police would do a PNC check and find your motor home is registered to your home address. They would then know you are not a "traveller" and you would be moved on - while the travellers would be left to decorate the surrounding area as only they know how.

Ian. We charge by the person to make things cheaper for single people and we show a little discretion if the group is large. We do not charge for awnings so I tend to agree with you on that one. Dogs were free here until I hit several "accidents" with the strimmer. One "accident" hit me...

Hi Clair We have two laundry baskets in our laundry. If the machine is left with washing or drying in everyone knows the washing can be put into these baskets to keep the machines available. Some people fold the washing, some don't, however we have very few problems with this. Thanks to...

Thanks both of you -I will be changing all our pipes and fittings on Monday. With nearly every caravan coming on this site using the well known brand of yellow connector it shows how few people know this. Thank you once again. Colin.

Not this again - soooooo booooooring!

Could you all help me with a survey please: What is the average cost of using a washing machine for one wash on a campsite & also what does it then cost to dry it? Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know if there is any truth that using a standard garden hose to fill up our water tanks results in carcinogens entering our water supply? A guest on our site had been told this and was persuaded to purchase "food grade" hose pipe. I am sure this is just something a caravan...

Damian You rather missed the point. My point being, if global warming exists, and if human beings have caused it, then human's are collectively killing the planet - not one particular type of vehicle.
