We wanted a quick, and cheap, getaway weekend, to get away from all the stresses of work and DIY !!
In actual fact, it cost us £64, £32 per night for the two nights we were there. We know there are better sites in and around York, but they were either not open yet, or fully booked.
We have been to Fox Hill before, but we were pitched on their camping field, and had the place to ourselves. This time, it looked like it was going to be rammed. But as it turned out, all these units, with the exception of ours, and one other, were on seasonal pitches, and the site was going to be almost empty.
The roadway through the site is mostly gravel, and the access to your pitch is across the grass. The warden showed us to our pitch and asked us to pull up on the grass while she decided which one we were having. She then asked us to reverse onto the pitch. Well, that wasn't happening, the grass was really wet, and we just made skid marks with no progress. We had to use the motor-mover to get on the pitch. Well, thats what its for, but it could have been easier.
We ventured out, not into York, but to a nearby caravan sales, Ebor Leisure World, just a mile or so up the A64. We fancied some new cutlery, and I wanted a cable reel for the EHC. I know we could get stuff like that cheaper at the big box outlets, but it got us out for a couple of hours, and they were very reasonably priced.
We had lunch at a motorcycle cafe that I had visited in my previous life, a nice place, just on the A19, south of the McArthur Glen shopping outlet. We should have gotten pictures of the bikes before we went in, and it was chucking it down when we left, and we had to run for the car.
Back to the caravan to catch up on that much needed relaxation, and to try out the 'new to us' bedding that we bought that actually fits the bed. It looks great with the bed runner and cushions to match the main seating area.
The caravan is absolutely filthy, and the new cleaning brush that I bought will be getting some use in the next week or so.
See you soon, when we go to SilverHill Woodland Retreats, formerly the Teversal Caravan and Motorhome Club site.
