Bedding for static caravan

[fultime07]

We have just bought a static caravan which has a double bed normal size and two single beds which are only 2ft 3 wide I can't find any fitted sheets or mattress protectors for this size anywhere! Is there somewhere I can get these or near sizes please? Also, where do I get a low wattage electric kettle as I am told that a normal one will short out the electricity? Can I use a normal wattage vac cleaner and iron? As you can tell we are complete novices so need all the help we can get.

What do you mean by static caravan Karen? If it's one of those large boxes that sits on site and ends up with a picket fence, veranda and wheelchair access, which never gets towed, then you should have a very capable power supply and you can feel free to use all domestic type goods. Youare probably on the meter anyway so will get charged accordingly. If you have a touring caravan that is on a seasonal pitch you need to ask the site owner/warden what the output of the mains supply is. If it's 16 amp then you can run most equipment without it tripping the cct breaker but try not to use all of it at the same time, items such as a fast boil kettle should be left at home.

kettles available from Barons or (i assume) any other local caravan shop.

p.s. why do you want a vac and iron - you're on holiday! ;-)

I never bother taking an iron along. However, I agree with taking a small vacuum cleaner. We bought one from Asda and was very cheap. We have never had problems on site with the electicity supply when using it.

Have a look at the kettles whiles you are there also. Domestic kettles vary in wattage! We bought out 'normal' kettle from the Co-Op!
