Hi Martin, Waterfoot Park is one of our favourites, we have only visited it once but will return, looks like I've got some more for our list 👍. We did a Haven site with granddaughter a few years ago but our experience very very noisy most night on the one we stopped at 🙄😩

Hi Andrew, Yes Waterfoot is great and we will hopefully be there over summer. The Haven sites can be a little noisy, I always check that the touring area is away from the rest of the site. Thanks for watching, Martin

Hi Eric, We don’t use CMC sites that much as I find them expensive and the alternatives sometimes have more and better facilities. When we booked Beverley park we initially looked at CMC hillhead, however Beverley was cheaper and a better site. Thanks for feedback and watching, Martin

I've stayed at the Water foot and Kirkby Lonsdale years ago when I was a little lad with my mum and dad, looking forward to when we can get away in the caravan. Going to sort it out this week and make sure we're all ready to go when we can. Nice upload again 👍 Cheers 😎 Jack

Hi Martin just wondering if you have any ideas on corner steadys for security on the caravan whilst it is parked on our drive. I have hitch lock and wheel clamps and a post behind the rear but wanted to make it harder for unwanted thrives.. Mark

Hi Mark, yes you can get locks for the steady’s, there are various makes like these. Purpleline Fullstop Torpedo Caravan Leg Lock www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B01HQ14YKM/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_tai_MrN6EbJ9YT4KF As with any lock they are a good visual deterrent, more locks means more time for someone to try to get them off & hopefully they will not bother. Cheers Martin

@@TheCaravanNut 100% yes, I've been thinking that recently as well, seems an ok sort of price, then if I add Mike in for the few times he comes with us the price sky rockets! Though they're often full in school hols - supply/demand/etc. and we've had some very cheap nights off season - in fact one October the club site was cheaper for me + 2 boys than the nearby CL as it was a kids go for £1 special and CLs assume 2 adults! Have to admit though I've fallen into a bit of a rhythm using them - so easy to see what's available, especially last minute, & minimises hunting around, checking reviews, etc. then click, click book and if I need to slide a booking back or forward by a day also super easy with no worry about booking Ts&Cs arguments with staff! Hence easy to get into the rhythm rather than taking the time to check other places out - hence great video to highlight these other places :) As my boys are a bit older now and more helpful the sense of needing to know what we're getting is becoming much less important so we can be a bit more adventurous :) Take care, Becky

Haven have some brilliant sites. I’ve stayed at the Hafan y Mor site. It’s got brilliant pitches and facilities for all the family. Found the staff extremely helpful too. Thank you so much for uploading this video. Just need to fit a new charging unit to my caravan before we book our next caravan holiday. We have a new addition to the family now too. Our little boy Ernie who’s 8 months old now. Going away in the caravan with the kids and showing them new experiences is what it’s all about for me. Making new friends and visiting places you’ve never been before. You just can’t beat it. 👍

Great video Martin thanks. Beverly is our go to site, being family run we feel they give a personal touch. Nice and clean and friendly staff. we try to visit there twice a year for our main holidays and use CCC for our quick short trips away. For anyone who has not visited and plan to, i little idea that we love to do. Jump on a bus from outside the holiday park round to Brixham, once you have had a look around jump on the boat over to Torquay, we pay approx £7.50 return for three people for the boat. Steve

Hi, Yes we loved Beverley Park. All the staff that we spoke to said it was a great place to work. Lots to do on the site and prices were reasonable, we used the bar over the road as it was quieter. We were going to return next year but had to move our France trip to 2021, however its on our list for 2022! Will keep the Bus and boat trip in mind. Thanks for comments and watching, Martin
