Re: Whitby update - local knowledge / advice please

Scarborough BC are not quite as anti-motorhome as they used to be. Motorhome parking is permitted on Marine Drive, North Bay and they have even now installed a free-to-use CDP point (think there may also be fresh water there). Parking is free until 1 March, at which point each space occupied needs t...

Re: Gainsborough

Fantastic Sandie - well done. Now you have contact details, would you mind sending them info of letting motorhomes park overnight? We have a briefing document for councils in the business hub, and the recent information from Fleetwood showing they received nearly £26k in income in 2022 from motorhom...

Re: Marinas, Canals, Waterways

Bantry aire is expensive, given that the same facilities are available at the Westport Hotel just up the road, which is €10 a night (though no EHU).

I’m ...

Re: Isle of Man

Wow that's fantastic news. We've already booked tickets for 2023 Practice Week, though I suppose it will either be suspended or rammed then!
