Hi Camper man

Welcome to the Small Motorhome Forum, have you had much of chance to camp in your new van yet? I expect if you downsized you are finding that there are good points and not so good points about small motorhomes.

You will certainly need to be more organised when loading the van and get rid of few things that are non essentials, you will have less room that you had in your previous van but it will be more cosy.

You have also probably discovered that you can get amazing mpg from your R20 and you'll get a lot of interest from people wanting to view your van, you will now be able to park easier too and driving down narrow country lanes is a doddle, you might even decide that you now only need the R20 to go about your everyday business so you can sell the car.

Happy camping and I look forward to hearing about your experiences.

Wow

Wow what a welcome, thanks to you all I feel at home all ready, yes I had some good trips out in my new R20 Hasting, Moreton in mash, New forest and next sunday off to a CL in Stonehouse Gloucester. Thanks again for such a good welcome

[Vanderella]

I know Stonehouse quite well - used to live in Stroud. There are some good days out from there - the docks at Gloucester for one. Easy parking, plenty to see and do. Lots of cafes, a good antique centre, museums etc. If anyone is into shopping it is an easy stroll into the city centre from the docks.

Let me know if you need any info.

Hello from another happy R20 owner, this time a Hylo. Bought mine last October and we just love it. You'll find the folks on this forum are a happy band as well, really cheerful and helpful. Lovely folk to meet. Glad you've joined the clan. Graham

Hello camperman & welcome. We have just come back from a "meet " at Moreton in Marsh. There were 22 units there I think but Graham may be able to put me right there ! We had a great weekend, pity you didnt join us before, then you could have met all the mad & lovely people on here, well all those that attended. A meal at the pub with a game of skittles afterwards. Great fun.

There were 22 units there I think but Graham may be able to put me right there !

26 units and 40 members.
