Blimey was busy, busy, busy. Just getting everything set up must be a massive job, got there at 10 and didn't leave until 3. The people on the Pennine stand were fab, as was the chap from the Conway owners club, if any are on here <waves>.
So, what swung it? The space was great, felt much bigger than we'd get in any of the small folding caravans or pop top caravans on show. Can fit up the drive and in the garage, where space is limited. Plus nice being a tent top, very airy. No hard sell at all, the team were very sweet and honest.
Chose the countryman as the fixed beds were more comfortable than the fiesta's settee/bed. The fixed seats also felt more comfy and were at a better height for being around the table. The kitchen provided a lot more work and storage space without the loo taking up room. Also advised the loo chemicals (loo in this model different from pathfinder) can pong a bit, so decided to buy a loo separately and put it in a toilet tent.
The colours for this year are very smart, greys and whites with grey and white speckled curtains, grey carpet, black granite effect work tops.
So, very excited now. Bought some duvulay memory foam sleeping bag thingies and some nice new robust caravan crockery. Will pick up in new year.
All the stands in the trailer tent, folding camper and folding caravan area were really busy, a lot more so than I remember them being a couple of years ago.
We had a look at Raclet, they had a nice robust folding camper which felt more utilitarian than the Pennine/Conway. Camp-let were mega busy and those are lovely built, spacious, high quality units. Would probably have bought one but for the British weather recently. Gobur caravans were very cute, the build quality was excellent. They should probably update the furnishings, a little old fashioned. Eriba caravans were a lovely build and internally modern in design. We felt too tall, even with the roof popped.
Won't bang on about caravans and motorhomes as this is the trailer tent forum but was very glad wasn't in the market for one as there were so many to choose from. And some were £££
