Hi Ray I had a look at the X-Trail before I got the Mazda and I could get into it. The biggest problem for me is the price of the road tax on the 4X4's now and I don't see it getting any better. I am looking at a Mondeo or Passat but I have read good and bad about both so I am stuck right now...

Hi folks I would just like to say 'Hi' to everyone. I used the forum last year and have very good information from it. I am fully wheelchair dependent after suffering a spinal cord injury over 9 years ago. I am still reasonably fit and still work full time and get away with the van as mutch as...

I have found this post particularly interesting seeing that I am wheelchair dependent and drive an auto all the time. I am currently looking for a new tow car and I am not sure what to go for. I have a Mazda 6 2.0 TS2 estate auto petrol but I would like a diesel now for fuel economy. The...

Many thanks for doing this. Dougy

Has anyone ever used this site? Any points good or bad appreciated. Dougy

Oops, I think I made a complete mess of that post so apologies for this. Still learning my way around the forum. "The Ultimate Control would be for Adult Only Sites so that Children are not put at risk. This is children we are talking about, Adults do not tend to run out from behind Trees ...

"The Ultimate Control would be for Adult Only Sites so that Children are not put at risk. This is children we are talking about, Adults do not tend to run out from behind Trees !!!!! I appreciate that this is not practical. So one way may be No Cars near Caravans you pitch up, unhitch and then...

I would have to say that I would never be back on this site again. I was in Blackpool a few years back and I went to visit the site. It looked pretty good so we decided to book up for two weeks in the summer. I couldnot wait to get off of it. There were travellers on it and they used to start...

Hi Jo-Anne When I first looked up the site I thought I had it wrong as it came up with Brixham. When we stayed in Paignton we loved it but I really liked Weymouth so I wanted to go back there but everything is an option right now so I won't rule it out. Many thanks Dougy

Many thanks Annette, I will be sure to look into this one.

Jo-anne I live close to Glasgow so I use a couple of sites for long weekends and I have really enjoyed them. The first one is Craigie Gardens in Ayr. It is a lovely site with the usual CC standards. There is plenty to do in the Ayrshire area, plenty of walk, lots of heritage and many more. I...

I hope you can help me. I am looking for a site near Weymouth which has decent disabled facilities. I am wheelchair dependent but very active and I am looking for a site close to or around the Weymouth area for two week in summer, early July. I have stayed at Sandford Holiday Park three years...

I agree with Kelly. Why don't they put a number of disabled or blue badge bays near to the entrance and then put some further away. Do the same with parent and child bays, put a number close to the door and then put some further away. I bet there would not be the abuse there is now. What I...

Diane Please accept my apologies as my post was not meant to be a personal attack, I was just trying to highlight the fact that I thought that removing Disabled parking bays was over the top. The whole parking 'Blue Badge' parking scheme is all wrong. I think it has to be looked over again and...

Hi folks With regards to Diane's comments, 'Sorry guys but the who-ha over disabled bays get my goat! Personally I think they should take them away!' This is a great idea and I would love to park my car next to you in a car park. I am wheelchair dependent and I do need extra space to get my...
