Thank you everyone, Im disabled and find it very hard work trying to get a shower at some sites.

We go to Billing once a year for the Vauxhall show I allways end up not seeing anything of the show,We now have a porta loo for this show in our tent, that I cant help put up.So Hubby now agress that caravan will be far better for the both of us.

My daughter (20) goes with her boyfreind, our son is 17 and will want to do his own thing in the next couple of years.

Thanks again everyone.17

If you are thinking of changing to a caravan then you would be better off with an end bathroom as there is a lot more room for you as you are disabled. There are lots of designs like that.

i dont as you cant swing a goldfish in mine with the curtain there, actually took the curtain down and gave a bit more space. use the loo buy dont even use the sink as it is too small to wash your hands. if i want a good wash in the van i use the kitchen sink (mum has seen my bits before plus i am no prude) when she is getting washed i go and get the papers and have a walk

We have just changed our caravan for a 1996 Lunar planet mercury. It has an end bathroom with the toilet to the left and handbasin in front of it a wardrobe in the middle and a huge (for a caravan) shower. I am not a small person so these showers in the same place as the toilet are just no good for me. I absolutely love this caravan and the end bathroom and hope to keep it forever.

You learn to shower differently in the caravan. As others have said you wet yourself :0) switch off lather then rinse. After all you only want a quick wash really. We have the Whale taps and set them to the position which gives the tempreture we want and switch the water off on the shower head whilst on camp but switch it all off when leaving. Always check Aquarolls before showering. We bought the waste hog as it carries 50lt of water.

I use our shower all the time lately we have stayed on a lot of cl sites so the only facilities are ours.

Good luck with finding what you want.
