I am having a little rant, we were at a lovely camp site a few days ago, peaceful, no children only well behaved dogs. We are in a tent - I know, wrong section but ... some campervan/motorhome people around 10.30pm decide to get their beds ready ... bang, crash, boom, what do you do!! Please take note if there is a tent next to you, they can hear every single noise. Also pitch next to us decided he liked his bass up high whilst listening to his music!! Then around 3.00am presumably he was using his pull out toilet!! Don't really want to go to tent only places so please some of you, take note. Rant over, majority of you are very considerate, it's the odd few that spoil it. Comments awaited ...

People who sit in their awning watching TV with the volume up annoy me. Don’t people realise that tent fabric does not stop sound?!

Rant over 😂

People trundling those toilet cassettes with built in wheels along the gravel site road at 0700, because they’re heading home today & must leave early. You hear them coming from a long way off. Dubrovnik has banned dolly trolleys because of the noise of the wheels on the cobbled streets.

No one has mentioned the slidey doors on VW's......

We try to get the beds ready earlier, certainly before it goes dark, and use the back door as exit, so we only need to bang it shut once.

I was going to and glad you did. Although they are not purely on VW's.

I don’t like people playing music outside at any time (either at home or on a site). I would never inflict my taste in music on anyone and it bugs me when people inflict theirs on me! That’s what headphones or earbuds are for!
