We have decided to clean it tomorrow . I could ask my OH but I don't think it fair to do this . I don't mind trying it. With her.
She is quite good at most things and quite fit plus active.

The site she want to site it on is the c&cc site Blackmore . Near Malvern. I have said I will tow it for her. ( I tow our caravan my OH tows as well but he is not very confident. ) her caravan is bigger than ours but I don't mind. I don't panic and am very used to doing most of the driving. I have thought it would be better to look for an independent site. But she knows this site it is about an hours drive from us.
Thank you so much for all your replies. I am trying to nag her to drive. Not tow just drive but she has said no for now. If I had an automatic I would take her some where quiet to try. She has a driving licence from years ago but she never drove.her road sense is excellent so it's just managing the car. I will keep trying.
My next post will probably be about sites. She has to sell their car shortly. This will be another sad day.
Thank you once again for all your replies. Some very rewarding advice. xx

The Malvern site is nice but very expensive and you have pack up everything when you leave. There are some other better sites in the area. She could try Lickhill caravan park in Stourport which has serviced pitches for water and waste and the awning can stay up.

If its the C&CC site at Malvern they store and put the van out for you and then put it back into storage when you leave. All the best

Still very expensive for what you get and a pain to put up and take down everything every tiem you visit. It is on a very infrequent bus route and I can't remember busses running on weekends. There are some other sites in the area which are on bus routes. the biggest issue is busses. No issue in Stourport at Lickhill Caravan park.
