Some regular readers here may recall that I posted a thread on here last year, looking for a seasonal pitch in order to escape for regular weekends. I registered with several sites within one hour of my home.

Imagine my surprise when I received a telephone call from a site warden two weeks ago offering a seasonal pitch. Went to see the site and very impressed with the site, the facilities and the warden was extremely helpful. Until now I used a tent, so a complete novice to caravan ownership, but all my questions were answered.

I then set about looking for a suitable caravan-no problem plenty to choose from. I settled for the Lunar Delta 640EW (2005) from a local dealership, also negotiated some essential accessories too.

This website is excellent, also cannot praise enough Jim (Warden) from Bo Peep Caravan Park near Banbury, Oxfordshire. I am looking forward to 20th March and start enjoying weekends of walking our Jack Russell in the local area and also enjoying my passion of landscape photography.

If anyone is planning a stay at Bo Peep this year it would be nice to see you. Haw will you recognise me? A Jack Russell on a lead, camera bag over shoulder (that's me not the JR!), walking apparell and boots, oh and the awning will be inside out! :-)

Look forward to responses

Malcombe, Lynne & Poppy

we have had a caravan for a few years now and last year we sited as a seasonal for the first time. It was the best thing we have ever done, no hassel towing, just pack the car and off we go everything set up and ready to roll.  like you dog in tow, camera in hand we have enjoyed a wonderful season, when it was time to go chuck what neeed in car and left leaving the van where it is. 

Congratulations on your purchase and hope you enjoy your new season and manage to take some wonderful shots of the area
