Caravan Newbie

We had alovely holiday in Skegness Sands. it’s probably one of the few holidays where I didn’t want to come home. The site itself was absolutely wonderful, right on the beach, and a playing area ideal for the kids just in front of where we were parked up. You could even see the sea from our caravan. It certainly helped that the weather... [Read more of this review]

I haven’t been to Skegness for years, (neither has Bob) and we are really surprised I think at how much we are looking forward to actually going. The reason we picked Skeggy is because Tracey has an old friend called Kerry whom now lives in Ireland but comes from Yorkshire who is going to Skegness with her mum etc that particular week in a static... [Read more of this review]

Believe it or not we actually got to Nettleton Park with no mishaps. (well unless you count the problems surrounding my mum who is in hospital, but that’s a different story). Because I had to do a few bits n pieces surrounding my mum, I was a bit late getting home from work. We wanted to be sorted and packed etc so we could go straight to school... [Read more of this review]

We’ve booked to go to Nettleton Park next weekend and I’m in revolt over that damm bed! Bob has been looking at one of his caravan magazines (yeah we really do get and read em), and he was showing me some ads for memory foam toppers for caravan beds (exactly what I need) so with no more ado I’ve been online and found this company.... [Read more of this review]

Whilst we were in Primrose Valley last weekend we decided our deckchairs arn’t comfy enough so we decided to go over to Bawtrey and see what they had. Wwe ended up spending about £180 plus, but much of it was what we had saved in pound coins etc thrown into a jar over the last month or so. (Amazing how it all adds up). We got a couple of decent... [Read more of this review]

We’ve had a super fantabulous weekend (Well except for minor mishaps), and I’m absolutely exhausted lol. After all the stresses and strains of actually getting to Primrose Valley I did wonder whether it would live up to expectaion but I’m pleased to report it certainly did. Adam made a new friend called Abigail and they were both off... [Read more of this review]

Well we got to Primrose Valley today but OMG what a disasterous start. (It very nearly didn’t happen). Do you ever have those days when you just know something is either definitely not meant to happen or you have to go through trials of life andor death to get there. For a start a warning light had come on in his brand new car on Tuesday, he took... [Read more of this review]

We had one of those caravan movers attached today at a cost of 1200 quid at a local dealer near us called John Cooper. We had shaved about 300 quid off the cost compared to Bawtry, so even though I gulped a bit at handing over that amount of money it was worth it, especially as Bob has had a bad back all week, (Make moving it a  lot easier). Problem... [Read more of this review]

Not for us though! Tracey has gone from calling us a couple of Anoraks to absolutely loving the whole caravan thing… She asked her dad if he minded if she took the kids back to Grange Park for the weekend as they had all enjoyed it so much. As it was Bank Holiday I did wonder whether there would be any pitches left, but she was lucky, we got the... [Read more of this review]

We had a super time in Grange Park, we very nearly didn’t get there though because before we even set off I wanted to batter Bobby with a vengeance. He rang me at work screetching because he couldn’t find the keys etc for the hitchlock. Obviously I hadn’t had them and let him know in no uncertain detail. It ended with us having a major bust... [Read more of this review]
