Anyone had any problems with a leaky drain tap (yellow one
under bunk)- first time I tried refilling system after the
winter I couldn't stop it pouring out no matter which way I
flicked it over (horizontal).It eventually stopped but now I have a constant drip. I can't seem to get anywhere near it. (Bailey Monarch 2005)

Cheers

These can fail unfortunately and as they are 'unserviceable', the only option is to replace them.
Easy enough as most are push-fit connections.
Example here, however there are several slightly different versions depending on how the pipes currently fit to yours, so check your valve fittings.

Hi,
You say it leaked no matter which position horizontally you had it in.Both horizontal positions are open on this valve.Leave the yellow lever in the verticle position to close it.
