We have just returned from our first outing out in our Conway Camargue only to have a disaster upon packing up with a bolt shearing off one of the legs.... after an hour of banging my partner managed to get the leg up so that we could come home!

Does anyone know of anywhere that we can get some replacement parts from? We are missing the grey screws on two of the legs and on one of the kitchen legs. Better still...as my partner has no idea how he is going to get the leg out again without drilling out the left over piece of bolt does anyone know where we can get a replacement leg?

We loved the holiday apart from this little mishap and really want to get all sorted out so we can have another break in it.....

Any advice would be helpful.

Helen

Legs often pop up on Ebay. But if you drill out the screw end you'll find the leg will drop out loose again anyway. There's no actual holes in the leg as it just holds in place by pressure from the screw.

Mine have never dropped out  in transit or moved while in use so I think that drilling is more belt-n-braces than really necessary. Mind you it's Hubby and his gorilla hands  that always does the final tighten of the screws, using a leather palmed glove to get a good grip. I can't even begin to loosen them after that.
