Hello,
I'm very new to this forum and I'm hoping to get some answers to a basic question.
My wife and I are a family of 2 in our 50s, kids have grown up but we have a dog.
We have never owned a caravan or motor home before and we don't know where to start - do we get a caravan or a motorhome.
For me as the driver the simplicity and instant availability of a motorhome in terms of getting from home to the campsite really appeal. But on the other hand when we get to the campsite we like to visit local and not so local attractions which the versatility of a tow-car and caravan maybe better.
I have only ever towed aircraft around an airfield (I'm ex RAF) so don't have experience of towing on the open road.
The cost is also important and whether to buy second hand or new is also a factor.
We are considering hiring a motorhome in the new year to help us decide what to do. Do you think this is a good idea?
Any advice would be appreciated :}
Cheers, John and Maggie..
