    Hi Groovy,  We are having a Coachman Vision 575 plus, spent many hours looking at caravans but always came back to the Coachman, I have spent years towing racecars around so not worried about towing. So looking forward to joining the caravan world.

    We will definitely enjoy,think I will be spending some time on CT to learn about caravaning, 1 thing that I have noticed is that everyone comes a cross as being very friendly and helpfull

    Welcome, and congratulations on taking the plunge and ordering a caravan. Lots of advice on here, sometimes conflicting, but everyone's different and you'll also find your own way of doing things as you do more and more trips away.  The main thing to remember is that if you're on a site and you have a problem, do ask a fellow caravanner for help. Most people will be happy to advise, or to show you how something is done, but are sometimes reticent about offering (unlike here on CT where advice abounds wink). We all had to start somewhere.  As has been said many times before, have a night or two close to home for your maiden voyage so that you can try everything out and see what essential items you've forgotten before you go on holiday.  Have a great time.

    Welcome to the world of caravanning and to Club Together.  Please ask any questions - I'm sure there will be some along to help.  There are plenty of sections to choose from - just choose the one that best suits your question.  Use this next 7 weeks to find out what you can and to earmark some sites to visit.

    You were only about 10 miles from us then, we are hopefully going to Barmouth for our first time out, the guys at Trwasdir seamed really friendly and a nice park
