yes, but not new york just near york!!! it's about 20mins drive from york, very easy,there is also a big shopping complex near by, + flamingo park if you fancy a day out. it is a lovely little camp site, the people who own it Louise and Nick are a lovely couple,they took over this year and are really looking to improve some things, not that there is much to improve!!,  there are 3 different fields which they are going to try and put young one's in one, older people in an other, statics in an other, there is a big play area for the kids + they some times put no elu tents in there. the toilets are always spot less and clean. this is the address and web site, i know they have closed for the season at the moment but i would think they will answer sooner or later!!

Just got to ask this...you`ve not jacked the trailer up by the steadies, have you? Because this is a no-no for TTs...the weight when parked should be carried on the wheels and the jockey wheel only. Steadies shouldn`t carry any significant weight on them. They should barely touch the ground when they`re down, in fact. You can warp the chassis if you try to hold the trailer up on the steadies.

I`ve never experienced flats on the TT from overwinter storage, incidentally...a TT is pretty light compared to a caravan or car. I barely even need to top the pressure up at the start of the year. If you`re worried though, I belive you can buy storage wheels.
