Germany is great for camping and caravanning. Quite a few campsites are on the edge of towns. As far as kit is concerned I can't see that you would need anything different from elsewhere in Europe. Trouble with recommendations is that Germany is such a large country you might need to narrow down the choice of area. I have several blogs on my website about Germany and I have submitted quite a few German campsite reviews here so it might be worth having a look at the sites on here.

riche, we go to Germany a lot and have done for over 30 years the last 7 years with the Caravan if you click onto my homepage above this post on the left hand side you can view where we have been to by trips and 2 pages of info on Germany.  Hope thid helps.  I envy you for moving to Germany, together with Austria they are my favourite countries.  Very clean, actually pristine, inhabitants are very friendly and helpful and appreciate if you try to speak their language although most speak very good English.  You will find Germany is cheapest country in Europe for food, eating out and most other items. 

Hope this helps.

Good luck to you - plenty of good stuff in Germany. Whereabouts, roughly, will you be moving to? It's a long way from Bavaria to Baltic Brandenburg!

Thank you all for your help.

Paul we are moving to Bielefeld, but like i said we will drive almost anywhere. We drove for a day and a half to get to te south of france last year.

Our first trip will be in the easter holidays for a long week end. This is mainly to break the family in to camping.

If you want a weekend site nearby it might be worth having a look at Camping Lemgo which is not far from you. Lemgo is a lovely little town and you can walk/cycle round the old fortifications.
