:thumbs: Hi, I'm Sharon and I have recently decided that I want to buy a motorhome and get around as much of the british countryside as I can. I have never participated in any kind of club activity before but changes to my personal life have catapolted me into a whole new way of thinking so here I go!! I love being outdoors, I love space, fresh air, sunshine, and winter strangely enough! I would appreciate anyone's advice on the most suitable motorhome to buy as I am clueless. I have a crazy dog who will be my travel companion and would like to be able to accomodate at least 1 friend on some of the trips so I'm thinking a 2/3 berth? One of my favourite places is South Shropshire just bordering Wales. I prefer mountainous country to pretty or flat, rugged all the way:-) If you think you could offer friendship/guidance in my new life quest it'd be great to hear from you.
Hi Ronnie and :welcome1:

Firstly well done for posting if this all new to you - that's the first hurdle over .

As regards recommendations for what motorhome to buy its going to depend on a lot of factors. If there's only yourself, dog and occasional guest to consider then you don't need a large vehicle unless you just want plenty of space.

How the interior is laid out will be down to what feels right for you and of course budget will have an impact too.

Might be an idea to visit a few dealers to see some examples that you can sit in and imagine yourself using. Don't take too much notice of sales patter at this stage just get a feel for what might be right for you.

Once you narrow it down you can spend ages trawling through the likes of Ebay seeing what sort of prices things are going for.

I'm sure others will offer some more advice :thumbs:

Hi Ronnie
I agree with what Neil says. We spent nearly 12 months looking at vans before we decided on one that suited us.
I notice that you enjoy the winter season. If you are thinking of using a motorhome in winter then another consideration might be that you choose a 'winterised' model. These vans are better insulated and will be much warmer.
Good luck
Julie
