This christmas we are off to Ross Park, Devon for a christmas break in our motorhome.  We went a few years ago decked with a bit on tinsel and a few lights thinking how festive we looked - well we looked a very sorry sight when we arrived....the vans there go all out with decorations, trees, lights etc etc, you name it, it's there!!!

Now we don't want to go in competition but thought we should make a little more effort this year, what do you guys suggest, and also, where can you buy motorhome decorations from?

Thanks in advance

Hi Caroline

We're off down to Ayr Holiday Park, St Ives for our Christmas break again this year and have just invested in some MORE Christmas decs for our Daisy!!!  We tend to stick with battery operated, which costs us a fortune in batteries but hey ho!!!

Garden Centres seem to be the best places for battery opperated decs!

Merry Christmas!

Poundstretcher were selling solar lights in blue also in white up until a few weeks ago They were £12 for 2 packs or 7:99 each. there were quite a few lights on the string and connected to a small solar panel with a spike to put in the ground at base of m/home.  I bought a pack for our local F.O.L. DA meet and they worked OK.

They may be off the shelf now 'cause of the christmas stuff coming in, but ask instore.
