Easy peasy approaches to caravan site

I find your remarks rather strange.

why are you answering this section with such a negative tone?

my husband and I have driven minibuses for 35 years, we both have towed a trailer for many years, my husband has been on the manoeuvring course where he was complimented on his skills and confidence.

our favourite campsite is Cloud Farm in Devon but we would not be so arrogant or over confident to attempt that. Arrogance on that approach would be an accident waiting to happen. We have seen a couple of caravan getting themselves in trouble there even experienced people

It has been our many years of visiting wonderful campsites out in the sticks that makes me ask is there a book which tells us about approaches

so if you have the correct car licence you can buy a caravan set off without any knowledge or training and get yourself into a load of danger I find that strange ,just for the record I have been a lorry driver for 30 yrs and I trained to do my job my point is if you lack the ability and confidence get training before setting out

 

From what I am reading, in the above posts, you seem to be totally agreeing with each other. All Jennysheepdog seems to be saying, is there are still some approaches they are not confident on and would prefer not to tow. I can totally understand this and think it a very sensible approach. When we first started there were certainly sites that I avoided because of difficult access. As with all things, it does not matter how much training you have, confidence comes with experience.
