New to camping!!! Help!!

Post by Pudsey1975 »

I have just purchased a T25 1981 converted hi top and I need some help organising my first camping trip away!
I live in south east london and want to explore the Kent/Sussex coastline. Please can someone recommend a 'safe' and easy campsite to use for my first night away? Any helpful tips would be appreciated.

You're running out of light evening now and the temperature is dropping but don't let that detire you. I'm used to tents rather than Campers and next week will be the latest I've camped. The only thing that concerns me is keeping a young family entertained when it gets dark.

But if you are camping this year, I suggest choosing a site near to home. You're bound to forget something (I once forgot all the plates/cups and dishes and had to pop to sainsburies to but cheap repalcements).

Or how about joining us all at the New Forest this weekend. Plenty of experience on hand to help you out,
1986 1.9 Petrol/LPG with Devon pop up.
