Cheap site

solarman216 · 27-08-2014, 23:25

OK so thought I would start a new tread on this as have had some interest, we live in Bexhill on the south coast near Hastings and have room for several tin tents facilities are small but cheap so if you are interested please PM me, Rick

Yep. Solarman Rik is in a prime location. Easy to access with a 'van and not far from the coast. Lovely surrounding area with an abundance of shops. Happy wife, happy life.

Now, on the Norfolk Broads, where we visit a lot, there is a broad called Salhouse Broad, and they rent out "Camping Pods" for campers without a tent.

Now, Rick, you have the facilities to knock a few of those up...

£20 per night...

I couldn't believe what I saw on that web site, is there a market for these pods?
Seems they have to book them up. Well it is Norfolk after all...

However on our local Cannock Chase, the "dog kennels" usually have 4 wheels, with steamed up windows and an interior light on...

errrmmm so I'm told...

exosteve · 03-09-2014, 22:59

What's the plan then rick?
Is there a particular weekend your thinking of for us members?

The only holiday I have had all year is my 2 days off roading in Wales.

Need a break.

Thomas-the-Terrano2 · 03-09-2014, 23:09

good rates for repairs and servicing too ?

What!! Too cold for camping no such thing is there? Often woke up with frost on the tent. Nice warm sleeping bags and hot drinks no problem.

You'd be better off buying a couple of old caravans. At least you could move them about.

Can you be classed as a camper, without a tent?
Yes these pods are becoming popular. Deer's Glade is another good campsite which has these.
£50 per night though :eek
