If you take of the front wheels and turn the handlebars sideways you should be able to fit at least 3 of them in the boot, I can get four adult bikes in my trooper this way

I don,t drive 500 miles to get confused about which site I'm on , if it wasn't statics it was holiday chalets , and this was last year in july

Hi, we went to willingcot last year , the sites nice but the shops not open very much and it doesn't stock very much either , but the biggest problem is the noise from the club on the static site next door, cos of the smoking ban they open all the doors so that folk outside smoking can hear the...

you don't need to manhandle a twin axle , just get good at reversing . I've managed to reverse uphill on an s bend right into the pitch(and I'm a woman!).

Andrew, we (hubby+2 kids) use yellowcraigs often at all times of the year, it,s level, with a good shower block and a nice play park , there are sheltered areas and open, grassy pitches too but there are also plenty of hard standings, it,s a level easy walk to the beach and it,s a mile to the...

Hi Ewan , we stayed there for a stop over 2 years ago on our way down to cornwall ,it's basic but clean , it caters mostly for workers , we saw a lot of people going out at 8am in suits and the like, so its quite quiet and not a lot of road noise

we've just spent a week at a cc golden jubilee site , at peak rates (easter) it cost

caravan club cl sites only allow 5 vans at a time , soif you booked far enough in advance I'm sure you could come to some arrangement with the owner.

The cc site at st mawes is ideal it's less than 20 miles away , it's a lovely site , we were there for 2 weeks last year and went to the eden project the only advice is avoid st austell at anywhere near rush hour , it's a bit of a bottle neck.

forgot about the mirrors , I have a towing mirror but in all honesty it doesn't give any better a view than the troopers own enormous wing mirrors

Hi Martin, I have used a trooper for 4 years to tow my twin axle and its brilliant,most of the time you just need 2 wheel drive and its a litle slower at accelerating , the only suggestion would be if your reversing on wet grass use 4wheel drive and let the car di it by itself (I know that...

Hi , royston sorry for the delay, I,ve been to yellowcraigs at all times of the year and the only time theres midges is later in the year in the evenings , the east coast is not so bad for the blighters, the groung is sandy so if there is a lot of rain it drains really quick.

hello royston , I've never been to maragowan but yellowcraigs is a favourite for us , we have been many times. The facilities are up to the usual cc site standards , the site is divided in to different areas by sandy banks ,some areas are formal hard standings and some are grassy where the...

Clive, We have an isuzu trooper and it does the very same,the only thing that that keeps them clear is to have the fan on at low with the vents at the window setting, other than that just grin and bear it, sorry. Mo

folk will never get the message , on the way home from Cornwall on the M5 northbound at Cullompton services the only empty caravan slot was taken up by a POLICE CAR with crew who watched me pull in, and out, then park with the HGVs, and only then did they pull out of the slot
