A beautiful site with stunning views of Blencathra and a beck (stream) running though. What more could you want from a peaceful touring trip? Perhaps some sunshine, a local village fair, fantastic cycling routes and an activities centre right next door! That’s exactly what we got at a our first stay in Troutbeck Head last…
Many members stay at this site just for the single night en route to the continent via the Channel Tunnel or the Ferries, but should you linger for longer, this part of Kent has much to offer. My visit over the May Spring Bank Holiday was marked with some un-seasonal lovely warm and sunny weather which was ideal for visits…

I have just taken delivery of a brand new A7 sportback. After discovering Audi wanted £2500 for an Audi tow bar I decided to go to Indespension and get them to fit it at a far reduced cost. I have used then a number of times and trust them. The bar they have quoted is a Witter with a 13 pin socket. They told me that I may…
Hi I’m Amy, I work in the marketing department at the Caravan and Motorhome Club and this weekend I’ll be embarking on a lot of firsts! It’ll be my first time in a motorhome (driving and living), first time staying on Club sites and first time to the Lake District. I really enjoy being outdoors and wanted to experience the…
