Where ever you use on the motorway be sure to put the hitchlock on or have someone stay with the unit while everyone goes to the loo. Recently read about Caravans and Folding Campers being unhitched and stolen from motorway services in the 2008 holiday season while owners went for "refreshments". Your insurers might not be very understanding if you did'nt take precautions and ended up in a worst case scenario.

We have found that most services have a caravan/lorry section.

Yes we always have someone stay with the car & camper while others use the facilities etc.. A family from our village had their caravan stolen at a motorway services when they were on the way down to Portsmouth at the start of their summer holiday to France. All the kids clothes etc. gone, as well, of course, so an absolute nightmare - we don't risk it.
