We went and collected our new swift challenger 636 today. Sadly it is now down the road in storage but we have a local weekend away scheduled for next week to go and have a play with it all!

For the past 7 years we have tent/trailer tent camped, so this is our first caravan experience. Looking forward to not having to worry about whether we get rain on the last night as to whether it will be peaked away wet etc!

Thanks to those that have offered advice/tips along the way
