We have just had our First weekend away in the Motorhome. We stayed at Claylands Caravan Park. Lovely Site but was kept awake the first night by the trains that passed every ten minutes . There is a  lovely Bar and Restaurant on site and small park area for the kids as we took the two Grandaughters the youngest enjoyed it. Toilet area too far away from the Tourers and Motorhomes. Other than that free hot showers clean toilets .There is a  Farm just over a  quarter of a  Mile away called Hollys Farm where there is some smaller Animals for the kids to see and a Fun area not a  massive one and the price is 4.50 per child there is cakes and drinks bit steep in prices they wanted 1.49 for a  fruit shoot we opted for a  carton at 85p.

We left the site and got stuck in soggy grass luckily 3 people from over the way pushed us out . We then forget to wind the ariel down so we had to stop to do that. We also forgot to empty the toilet something we always remembered to do when we had the Caravan ..Other than that the Motorhome was toasty no cold spots we just need to purchase so exterior blinds as we did wake up to wet windows ..

    It's a life long learning curve this caravaning thing, motorised or otherwise! Mostly a very enjoyable one mind thankfully.smile

    I used to use Claylands regularly 20 years ago and jad my caravan stored there FOC as I used to go for two or three long weekends every month betweenMarch and end of September. It has no doubt changed greatly but was a site that I enjoyed
