Dear all
I have to go to the NEC in a couple of weeks time and thought that I would combine it with a few days away in that area as I have Sat to Wed off work - hooray! You all sang the praises of Kingsbury so much that it would be an ideal place to stay and explore from as well as go to the NEC. However it all looks very open. In the past I've often felt as if I was in a goldfish bowl on open field sites so nowadays always try to check that there are some more private or divided areas before booking - is this the case at Kingsbury or would I have to park on a field where everyone can see my every move? I've had a look at the video etc. The other thing is that on so many sites you have to park in rows in the same way as everyone else, like a car park, when I would rather park with the side door towards the hedge or other boundary - again for privacy and especially as a solo. Is this just convention or would I be able to park any way round I want?
Sorry, this must sound so unsociable but I am generally I'm afraid, - and one reason for campervanning is to get away from it all rather than move onto the equivalent of a housing estate with twitching net curtains (yes, one site was just like that)!!
If you think Kingsbury wouldn't suit me can anyone recommend another in the area I might look at? I've looked around but it's difficult to tell without personal recommendation.
Thanks - sorry this sounds awful but I know you're a tolerant lot and it takes all sorts!
