Welcome - and well done for carrying on Mary! We don't use many sites, though we are on one now at Porth in Cornwall; right by the beach and a bus ride into Newquay or Padstow. We are here with the Autotrail Club, and there might be something in it for you to join the Motorcaravan Club, the club for your marque of motorhome, or I believe there is a single persons club (which is not a 'solos' club).

Otherwise there's always the many facilities (District Association meets, Holiday sites etc, Certified locations as well as Club sites) provided by the Camping and Caravan Club

A bit of googling should find some leads if you decide to give this sort of thing a try.

Good luck and enjoy!

Hi there hblewelt - thank you for your tips, I have been a member of the CC&CC for many years as we originally have done camping & caravanning, also a member of the CC. But I will make enquiries about the Motorcaravan Club, etc.

Thank you once again.

The C&CC has a motorcaravan section too. All the best with your travels

Thank you.

Mary

Hi Mary
New here too well done you.
Never been on a campsite in last 5 years of traveling but have found many pretty pubs with big car parks some of these are in town or near to towns or on riverbanks etc and they are free! :roll:


Paul

Thank you Paul - how do you go about finding these pubs?

Kind regards.

Mary

Hi Mary - if you go to the 'Magazine' section then Travel and you will find a comprehensive list of pub stopovers all around the UK.

Hope this helps - we've stopped at a few and always had a very warm welcome.

I suppose I just drive along road if I see a nice one with decent car park I go in, but I always ask if its ok to stay in car park which I think is only polite, oh and threaten them with buying beer etc. I have never been refused yet in last 5/6 years.

Hi Mary as mentioned by others Sue Britton runs <http://www.thephoenixcampingclub.co.uk/cms/about_us>
Has been doing so for a few years in our part of the world Plymouth ,and a nice site also Plymouth <Riverside campsite> just a short walk from bus routes and beside the river plym superstore close by for shopping ttfn jr

Thank you very much for getting back to me. I actually stayed at the Riverside Site a during August as my nephew is in the Navy and stationed in Gosport. I would certainly visit this site again because as you say it is very convenient for visiting other places.

Thank you once again.
