Setting up your Caravan
Finding a Suitable Spot
When choosing a spot to set up your caravan, start with a flat area with no overhanging trees. Birds and
bats occupying trees can defecate leaving droppings on your caravan that can damage paint and leaves
and sap can also stain the coating. Ensure you are not camping in an area prone to flooding or with bad
drainage in the event of rain. Even the slightest hollow in the ground can put you in a mini lake. In hot
weather, if possible, set your caravan up so the sun’s arc goes from front to back or back to front with the
annex/awning in the general direction the sun is arcing across. Doing this will keep the bulk of the
caravan in shade and the inside cooler as it will be shaded by the awning.
Weather
It is important to know the weather prediction for the area you are camped. Storms can be destructive with items
such as awnings and annexes being particularly vulnerable to wind and storm damage
