Setting Up the 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
