Well that's our first night over in the return to camping for us both...been about 4 years. Setting up the Crusader went without any problems, took us about 25 mins.
Got the kettle on and sat & had a cuppa..

New Lodge Farm was a brilliant site for our come back to the fold. In the evening we went up into the village to The Queens Head, the steak was the best we've had for a long time...along with a couple of pints of falling down water for Moi (Camra winner 2012/13)and a couple of Vodka & cokes for Madame. .

Unit looks good! And it doesn't sound like you had a struggle putting it up. Have you had a folding camper before?
I take it you didn't bother with the awning, obviously as it was just an overnighter-do you have any plans for your next trip?

Rachel Hi.
We've had both, 3 caravans & 2 trailer tents, but never a folding camper...their a strange hybrid of both, but fantastic for space inside. It's great not having to make the bed up every night before you fall into.

As you've said no point in the awning for a overnighter, and yes we do have plans for our next trip, we have the last week in Sept off. I think we'll watch the weather the week before to see where the sunshine going to be and then head for it..
