Myself & the OH have been thinking for a good few months now about giving up the caravan.
Not had the chance to use it much and a lot of expence sat on the drive with both the caravan & the tow car.
Then the usual extra's with insurance, servicing the additional breakdown cover, maintenance etc etc etc.
BUT before we were to let it go we decided we had to find an alternative path.
So off we go last week and had one night in a hotel, enjoyed that one, then 6 nights in a chalet near Great Yarmouth.
Oh my days we left after 4 nights, couldn't bear it any more, so much wrong with the place it was a dismal experience.
(Too much to list so wont bore you all)
So not to let this get us down too much we booked a lovely Inn for the remaining two nights, Oh my days here we go again,
The room was across the road in a separate cottage type of house, walk in wet room shower, drain blocked, had to put your shoes on in the night to go to the loo!! and the first ever loo I have been to with out a loo roll holder, still flooded in the morning, The bed was that uncomfortable I should have slept on the floor, ceiling stained from upstairs bathroom leaking, OH.......... and the gent above us went to the loo at 5,30 that morning...............WE HEARD HIM!!
Straight to the bar/reception in the morning, they thought we we wanting a breakfast, FULL refund requested and given.
Still working on a refund for the first one.
So 6th and final night back to a hotel, again enjoyed but cant see us doing that for say a week at a time.
So folks we are here to stay with the caravan, AH.............. home comforts, own loo, shower, heating you can control, and a comfortable bed.
And of course the expense of it all !!!!!!
Happy vanning folks
