Product Description
Whether you are a young family with a desire to holiday in a convenient and safe environment, or an older couple wanting to benefit from increased time on your hands, "teach yourself Caravanning" will cover everything you need to know to get full enjoyment out your caravan. From the initial decision-making (what is right for you?) to the different models (towing caravan or motorhome?), from buying and maintaining, to driving, camping and holidaying abroad, this is a uniquely comprehensive manual for every owner. It offers key practical advice on things you may not have considered (is your car suitable for towing?), troubleshooting for every problem you might encounter on the campsite, including electrical faults and other maintenance issues, and background information on rules, regulations and the intricacies of going further afield into Europe and beyond. It is formally endorsed and supported by the UK's largest caravan organization, The Caravan Club, who are distributing copies across their 200 private sites and through their own magazine and website.
