As with many other organisations in the tourism industry, the Caravan and Motorhome Club is always finding ways to engage with young people, young families and those who one day will take up tenting or owning a caravan or motorhome.

The Big Little Tent Festival is such an initiative. As an existing motorhome owner subscribing to this blog, you do not require persuasion. Like me, you know what fun it is! But do take a look at the video if only to admire the highly unusual venue!

Perhaps unsurprisingly due to the weather and coupled with The Wanderer on site bar and bistro, the Knaresborough Caravan and Motorhome Club site was packed.

Had a lovely weekend there and despite being full the wardens manage to present an immaculate site with that special Club “ordered calmness” which is such a distinctive and unique feature.

I was staying at Black Knowl this week.

It has recently received a massive upgrade, has 127 pitches and is located in Hampshire in the midst of the ancient royal hunting forest of William the Conqueror. Hugely popular with people who want to get away from it all and who want to use the 140 miles of nearby track for walking or cycling.

It also offers a car charging point – is this the future?

The gentle wander along the Alps between Lindau and Salzburg is still very much in my mind and is likely to remain so for some time. Wonderful tour!
