    Camping Sainte Claire

    Good afternoon We are looking at the above site as a stopover on the way to Dunkirk in August. Having read the reviews, it sounds excellent, and it appears booking in advance is the way to go. I have scoured their website for the latest arrival times (we think we will arrive somewhere...

    Rouen

    We used this route to get to Les Alicourts about 7.30am on Friday morning, and it was fantastic. Managed to fill up with fuel as well. Thank you for posting. Lesley

    Dealer servicing package

    Hi All Thanks ever so much for your replies. The 3 year servicing contract was paid for upfront. I suppose it comes down to whether we want the van in for several days (we normally drop it off early Saturday morning and pick it up at lunchtime so we don't have to book a day off work!) and of...

    Dealer servicing package

    Good evening all My husband and I own a Bailey Madrid with the Alu-tech bodyshell. When we bought our van (from new) 2 years ago, we signed up to a 3-year servicing deal with our local dealer. This saved over £100 (excluding parts) on paying for each of the services paid for separately. The...

    Duinrell

    Hi Mel Thanks ever so much - we are looking for the best serviced pitch they have as far as size and services go. Having found the thread on here and saved a fortune with our DFDS ferry crossing, we have more money to spend on the site! Lesley

    Please forgive my stupidity, but I am trying to get hold of 'Mel' via 'Parksy' in order to take her up on her kind offer to note the best pitches to select at Duinrell. I can't see a way to pm, so any help gratefully received! Thank you Lesley

    La Fuma Recliners/chairs

    Just bought four 'clip' style chairs on their official website. Reduced (with free delivery) because they are discontinuing the wooden arms. Saved a fortune!!! Look at the menu on the left hand side for the 'special offers'. http://www.lafuma.co.uk/

    Bailey Unicorn Madrid

    We have paid a £500 deposit and placed the order. However, when our dealer has one on the forecourt (in a few weeks he reckons) we are going to go and see it, and if we don't like it he'll give us our money back. Although we'll probably end up putting it towards one of 2 other vans we fancy, so...

    Powrtouch Motor Movers

    Hullo all Bought our twin axle van 4 years ago and had the above mover fitted by the dealer ( Barrons/Discover) when it was new. Dealer not only fitted it incorrectly (which we subsequently had adjusted) but also failed to register our mover with Powrtouch for its 5 year warranty (of this we...
