Hi

I am off to Holland camping for a week on Sunday. V excited. Nearly packed (!)

...but its occurred to me that my ehu cable might not work without an adaptor of some kind.

I tried to google it but all I've come up with is some dubious items with the blue connector at one end and a standard eu plug at the other. Does anyone know if I need something special to make my cuppa, and if I do where might I be able to procure it last minute, (I asked at GO, but was greeted with gormless face, probably due to my bad questioning skills 😀)

Many thanks x

Most sites now have the blue connectors, but some, in France at least, use the old style European connector (but not a domestic plug!) though they are two pin and do look similar. Ring or email your Dutch site and check it's the standard blue connector - they will have fluent English.

Every site in Holland I have used has used the same blue/white socket as in UK campsites so plug in as normal.
