Camper van rights
Discussion
Couple of things really,
I drove a truck for some time years ago, and a night out away from home
was (if possible)
quiet road>
turn off that onto an even quieter side lane>
park out of the way disused gateway type thing
its not especially an aversion to all things CC, I'm sure they're full to the brim with interesting anecdotes on where they have been staying, I just don't want to hear it.
I was only thinking for the first few trips we might not find those small farm-based camp sites that everyone talks about, and have to rough it overnight

Depends how much you like being moved on at 2am. The authorities tend to be rigorous in enforcing the rules about this, esp in National Parks. Think about it, most modern caravans are pretty self contained, so if laybyes could be used in this way, why would anyone spend 20 quid a night on organised sites?
Perhaps I'm harking back to my childhood, Parents took us on holidays in a caravan where we ended up on a farm somewhere.
The idea of now being corralled in rows with home-from-homes all lit up simultaneously by Eastender television fills me with horror, as I say, if its possible to still find the smaller camping fields without some godawful 'club' thats what we want to do.
I was just wondering how the law stood these days on impromptu parking
Encouraging answers good.
Some of you seem knowledgeable so next question;
On some TV 'move to the country genre program' recently, Two (homosexuals) opened a campsite somewhere like a Scottish island,
No hook-ups, no rows of of vans, something like a near wilderness loosely criss-crossed with footpaths.
When its wet.
Looked more appealing
Than some transit camp for the Combover Club

Fortunately I'm teetotal these days, although on the plus side my sexuality remains hetro'
I only cited. The gay campsite (sic) as they were gifted with a flair for flamboyant decoration, I don't mind the gayness of the host as long as they don't corner me in the shower block.
Like the last post on recharging etc
Also may have modified my choice of vehicle to a demountable pod' to go on back of my Navara as its a modern pick-up with A/C for the travelling,
don't hold out much hope of finding anyone with any experience of ownership here though?
