I have to say we agree with your opinion of the fixed bed arrangement. We have an L shaped lounge with side dinette and rear washroom. The overall feeling in our 'van is fairly spacious and as long as I am fit and capable of making up the bed we will stick with the layout we have. IMHO the...

We got this one from Towsure and use it just outside the door in the awning or it pegs down if we don't have the awning up. It collapses down to take up very little space when not in use. Eco Bin Excel Pyramid B714

Hi Katie I copied this email address sometime ago from some kind person on this forum www.canvasrepaircentre.co.uk. This company will alter your awning for you. Sophie

I agree with everyone here. You will have no problems with the space you describe. Just one thing though about the gravel drive, we found that moving the 'van over the gravel was no problem and still very precise. But, when we came to move the 'van after it had been standing on the gravel all...

Each to their own I say, otherwise, we'd all be towing a swift charisma with a Kia sorrento.......but, in my experience which turned out to be a costly one, a rogue jar of coffee which was in an overhead locker which I missed, fell out in transit and burst open. As the carpets were slightly damp...

Thanks John, your way sounds so simple. I'm trying to simplify our bedtime routine as my other half wants to get a fixed bed and I'm happier to have all the lovely living space in the van we've got.

Thanks Tim, I was thinking that I could save some effort in turning the cushions over but I would of course still have to move them so that the knee rolls were to the outside.

Thanks Tim our cushions can only fit one way so we don't have any choice in that. I like the idea of the safety pins though

Can anyone tell me how they use their mattress toppers? Do you still turn over your cushions to the wrong side first and then lay out the mattress topper, or do you think it would be ok to use the mattress topper, with a cover, straight on top of the seat cushions without turning them over? My...

Hi Anthony I saw one at the caravan show in February and liked the look of it. I'd also be interested in any feedback if anyone out there has one?

Hi Reecea Like Chris I have the Maplins kit and used the sucker mount, I wouldn't recommend it though because in a gust of wind it came off and put a dent in the caravan and a large scratch on the car. I now use a "Hangaway" which you can get from Lakeland (look in the laundry section under...

We've been to Cannich and enjoyed it, but it is remote. Single track road access which wasn't a problem. The Glen Affric area is great for walking in the hills but there's not a lot else. Ideal for a very quiet weekend or few days but imho not for a long stay or for anyone who doesn't want to...

Thanks Woody, I have several options now and no excuses for not getting this sorted out. Thanks again for taking the time to reply. Sophie.
