A site called ’ Love2Stay ’ is just outside the town of Shrewsbury. Robby had mentioned a number of times its reputation for having the most comprehensive range of facilities of all the caravan sites in Britain, and 90% of the reviews were very positive when we were deciding whether to book a place there.
The journey took around three hours from the depot from Cardiff. We took the wrong exit somewhere near Ross-on-wye and were consequently directed by the satnav onto the motorway through Birmingham.
After a very long drive (~5 hours) from the Cardiff depot, we set up Bertha at the Carnon Downs site, in the centre of Cornwall, about three miles south of Truro. It is the ideal place from which to explore the region, and there are numerous things to see.
Our area was fully-serviced, each station having a water supply, electricity and a waste water drain. Everything at Carnon Downs is meticulously-kept, from the grounds to the shower facilities.
Since we aren’t going abroad anytime soon, Robby and I have taken to visiting places around Britain in the Swift Base Camp, affectionately named ‘Bertha’. We have been a couple of places closer to home already, but there wasn’t much to see.
Tenby is Robby’s favourite location in Britain, and it’s certainly the best place we have stayed so far. We managed to get a place on Meadows Farm, which seems the only site within walking distance of Tenby.
