Worst Place You Have Ever Camped or Caravanned?
Most sites are very nice and do just what they say on tin, to borrow a quotation. But.... I bet lots of us can remember an absolute shocker.
Our's happened very early in our touring life, around 32 years ago, in our old A60 Suntor caravette. We were just married, had little spare cash, and decided to tour the SW on a budget. This mainly consisted in getting down there from Yorkshire, rolling
into a site just prior to running out of petrol, and having a few days before cash flow improved and we moved on. We will never ever forget rolling into a site behind an ancient garage at the top of a hill just outside Lostwithiel. We set up our 'camp' for
the night, and I popped to the loo, in the dark, no lights in there working. Next morning, set off for a shower, and oh my goodness, it was like a scene from the Addams Family, OR even worse, Psycho! Cobwebs everywhere, creaking taps spewing brown water, and
stained shower curtains! I did not have a shower! We paid for our night, a really creepy character took our money, and we rolled the van into Lostwithiel and moved on. We pass this place occasionally now and it is known as "Bates Motel", accompanied by clicking
fingers and the Addams Family tune!
This resulted in us finding an absolute gem of a site in Bodinnick-by-Fowey that we used for the next 20 Years.
Does anyone else have a "horror" site to share?
