New adventures await us







 For a long time I've wanted a touring caravan and had a dream of touring the UK visiting all the wonderful places it has to offer.  We have been looking for several weeks and finally today we found one that we liked enough to buy ๐Ÿ˜€  It's not new, just new to us.

We had arranged a viewing of a different caravan but on speaking to the seller about another van we were hoping to view this afternoon she suggested that we look at another one she had for sale but hadn't  advertised yet.  As soon as I walked in I knew it was the one I preferred, and Mark felt the same.  The interior was lighter and although it was a little smaller it didn't feel cramped, and it has the fixed bed that we wanted plus the seating area also doubles as a bed if needed. 
 
We've looked at some awful caravans in our search that had price tags that far exceeded what you would expect to pay for the condition they were in, but I think we've had a good buy with this one, everything is in a good clean condition, It's obviously been looked after and it was bang on our budget.

I'm over the moon!  We are looking forward to many adventures exploring new places and of course I can't wait to go and buy all the little extras that will make it ours. ๐Ÿ’•

How lovely, it looks really clean and well looked after. We had touring caravans for years and loved the lifestyle. Enjoy!

We used to love caravanning and went all over England and Wales, even across the channel to France. I'd recommend joining The Camping and Caravanning Club, we found some fantastic little sites through them. Enjoy! Xx

Enjoy, we loved pulling our tent trailer to various places. I hated to give it up and even though I was kind of promised that it would be replaced it never was. Lots of adventures coming your way.

God bless

Enjoy! It looks very well kept. We purchased a used trailer just before we retired. We don't camp a lot but we go to Maine every year for a week, we've been to Pennsylvania, North Carolina and a few places here in NY. We meet up with a college roommate for a week as they love to camp too. We love it... I hope you do too.
