Have a walk round to double check everything before you set off.

I forgot to lock one of my locker doors and it came open so I travelled 80 miles with the door 2 inches from the ground and never got a flash from other motorists on the motorway

We are thinking of going on the same route so to speak. We are in our late seventies and after owning Pathfinder campers for the past 20 odd years, are now thinking of getting a fixed bed caravan. After doing a bit of research we have decided on a British built van as they look plush and have an ambiance about them that others do not have, We will wait until the end of the year before taking the plunge, hopefully prices will have come down by then. Our present tow car is a Ford Kuga that is a joy to tow with. and should be easily up to the task of towing our chosen van.

As well as checking out the route and the aerial view on google maps I always look on the street view to check out the approach and any landmarks that indicate the entrance

One that hasn't been mentioned yet and despite it being fairly obvious we managed to do it once at a cost.
Don't forget your bedding. We could only find shops nearby that sold rather expensive bedding. 😳
Canned beers, screw top wine & canned food with ring pulls etc. are readilly available so if you forget these openers you'll get by until morning, but I like bedding on my bed 🛏.
