Not used too many serviced pitches, but from the ones I've seen, there seems to be some variation in location of taps and drains in relation to how van is pitched, no such thing as a 'standard' layout, that means necessary hose lengths may vary from site to site, even seen a shared service 'bollard' situated between two pitches, that meant quite a long hose and cable run (especially for the van on 'wrong' side of bollard), some are just behind the van offside, and others are a way back against a hedge/fence line and more central to pitch!
Also used a few CL/CS/rally field type sites where grey water went into a hedge!
My drain outlets on van are about 2.5m from the rear on offside. My solution for flexibility to cover most situations was to buy a 30m length of corrugated waste hose, cut it into one 8m and one 22m length, and with the aid of a push fit straight jointing piece, I have everything to cope with a drain/disposal point between just behind the van (snake the 8m hose mostly under the van and out of the way) and up to 30m away. It all coils up and stuffs in a sack and is stowed in the front gas locker, doesn't weigh very much, so no nose weight issues, and the space would otherwise be unused anyway, doesn't interfere with gas bottle, nor 2nd bottle if I chose to carry one on my van.
So far, used every variation of 8, 22 and 30m, and it seems to cover all that I've encountered so far. TBF, think most are dealt with by the 8m hose. But like a good boy scout, 'I'm prepared'!
