Braithwaite Fold CCC 27.7.12

27th July 2012


Braithwaite Fold - Windermere

Montys next outing took us to the camping and caravanning club site at windermere.

Another site, located close to town, just a 10min walk or 15mins if you go via the lake.

 A nice site, well laid out.  Some pitches give a slight view of the lake through the trees. Plenty of rabbits on site.



doesnt apply to the birds!

Rowntree Park CC Site YORK 21.7.12

21st July 2012


           








York - Rowntree Park CC Site.

Our second trip for Monty took us to York and the caravan club site, Rowntree Park.

Well sited in the middle of York on the banks of the river Ouse. Short walk in to town. Pitches are small but the location makes up for that.  On this trip thought i would try and get tv reception via an external aerial that connect via the battery box. But couldn't get a signal, my meter said there was one but nothing came through on the tv!  We also found one minor problem the magnetic catch on the washroom door cupboard wasn't very magnetic, letting the contents empty on to the floor.

We only stayed one night but have decided to come back for a few nights next time.



Sheriff Hutton CCC Site 14.7.12

14th July 2012


Sheriff Hutton CCC site.

Our first trip in Monty to check that everything worked okay.

We wanted somewhere not to far away for the the first trip. This turned out more difficult than expected, most sites where full, but luckily the camping and caravanning club at Sheriff Hutton had a free pitch.

Everything worked okay, and we where amazed at how easy it was from arriving on pitch, setting up and relaxing. We wish now that we had got a motorhome 3 years ago instead of a caravan.

Collecting Monty.

Collected our first motorhome, a new Swift Escape 686, Monty, from Catterick Caravans.
Now looking forward to trips away.
