Let me know if you find one Whistle

Seriously though been there, done that and got the t shirt. For example we stayed at Ritz in London for wedding anniversary a few years ago and for 1 night there we can have a month on the site where I took the photos Wink

We can get up at 10am if we want or later and have breakfast, we were 3m from a river and listened to the water running past instead of horns and engines, the views are incredible and the dog was free Cool

We don't even have to tow it now it is tucked up safe in the farmers machine store Bow down Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

SWMBO was a bit worried being on the bank that we might slide into river but I told her as long as we didn't rock the caravan too much we'd be ok - should of kept my mouth shut Rolling Eyes

The view was fantastic though - we could see a field of stags at the front, Red kites overhead, a kingfisher and swans with cygnets on the river and a fox watching us on the opposite bank - in just 3 days Cool

It is unbelievable how much improvement they have made in just 4 year to the caravan - much like the jump from MY10 to MY13 with my RRS Bow down

Getting rid of the blown air heating and replacing it with a combi boiler and radiators has made it so comfortable I could live in it all year and there is so much storage now if I filled it we would probably be fined for overloading Laughing

Only towed it from Banbury to Oxford so far but could not believe it is the same size/weight as the last one as it is so easy to tow Shocked Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Love it muddy.

We've just come back from Pentawen in the Bessacarr and it was superb.

Saw a Eldis Tempest there which looked Cool (much like yours) so maybe next year Whistle

How are you finding the air awning? I like th idea but was worried about strength in a breeze? RRS gone
