    Oaklea CL

    This is top secret information.....we would hate for word to get around..but...Oaklea is great. We spent a long weekend there last week and if you are looking for peace,tranquility, and nature on your doorstep there is nowhere better to stay. There are no toilet blocks or showers so you have...

    Blu-Tak Nightmare

    Thank you all for your helpful hints. I also had a quick look at their website and duly dispatched Fouldsy in search of a citrus based stain remover. He returned empty handed stating no such thing existed. Yes Maureen I think I'm going to give the Sticky Stuff Remover a try. If that fails I...

    Pets requiring Urgent treatment whilst you are on site

    Euro, That would have been positive luxury on the infamous trip to Ferry Meadows when Bridget decided that "eau de goose poo" was the very latest in whippet perfumery!

    Pets requiring Urgent treatment whilst you are on site

    Bridget the fat whippet is a) clumsy & b) unlucky as a result of which we are often asked on our return from hols how the vets were in whichever area we visited. We too ended up at the vets in Worksop after an unprovoked attack from a fellow canine resident on the Clumber Park site which...

    Does anyone go away for New Year Celebrations?

    Two years ago we spent Christmas at Chatsworth (which was lovely) and it became very apparent that the New Year party there was something everybody was looking forward to. Unfortunately we hadn't booked through to New Year, so were disappointed to have to leave before the festivities began...

    Fireworks - yes or no?

    I would definitely ban the sale of fireworks to the public. To be honest fireworks are so expensive I'm amazed that people still buy them to let off at home, the organized displays are generally safer and much better value for money. I agree that the shops start to sell them far too early, and...

    What make of dog do you own?

    Am sorry to say as an update to our entry earlier on in this topic Benson our elderly labrador is no longer with us as from last Thursday so the Fouldsy household has been a bit sad this week. He was 16 though and had had a great life (which was of course made even richer by his discovery late...

    What Breed of Cat Do you Have ??

    We've got a moggy called Molly, or Miss Malone when she's feeling formal. Unfortunately Miss Malone carries the weight of the world on her shoulders and suffers from stress which she shows by stripping off as much of her fur with her teeth as she can. Her belly is totally furless and very pink...

    What have we all done to deserve such derision?

    After feeling initially peeved by it all I've decided the mockers should continue mocking, I'd hate for the world and his wife to discover the how great caravanning really is. Let them keep pitching their ill-informed opinions from their two week holiday a year rat race. Means more site...

    hi

    Hi Dee and welcome. We love the North East and often bring our caravan up to Powburn too, don't know if you've been out in your caravan yet but I'd certainly recommend a stay there if you've not tried it. Maureen, you may already know but there's a great butchers / farm shop tucked away in an...
