Re: National Trust

It’s time to plan tours for 2022, and I’m sure many are thinking about joining the National Trust (£120 for joint membership), so I wonder what the situation is now, Mark Edgecombe? Here is a post I’ve just seen on FB’s Motorhome Madness group page, showing fees for visiting a NT property, with high...

Re: Parking services / larger - vehicles - and- campervans

Isn’t it such a pity that there are no ‘dedicated motorhome sites’ in East Suffolk? It means that no motorhomes will need their car parks to go shopping or to have a good night out in the towns’ hospitality businesses. Any response to this anonymous reply?

Re: Walcott, North Norfolk - MH Park ‘Nelson’s Patch’

Well, it’s going to be expensive but that can be altered in due course. It will have ANPR linked to its CCTV system and let booked visitors enter to pre allocated plots. Each plot has a water and electric bollard with a light on top, and there’s a small waste grey water drain 9” diameter to the side...

Walcott, North Norfolk - MH Park ‘Nelson’s Patch’

A new ‘Motorhome Park’ will be opening on 14 July, solely for visiting motorhomes and campervans. https://www.nelsonspatch.co.uk/ It’s got almost everything!
