Word of warning that we have had to move our caravan off our current storage plot near Turks head, Royton, after owners dog chewed electrics, handbrake and jockey wheel knob. Left 3 month early. Despite site owner paying for repairs, no refund on outstanding duration. Nearly every van on site has been chewed. Aware of 3 other vans leaving due to this, others have resorted to wrapping barbed wire around A-frame etc.

Beware of this problem if storing there....would not wish for anyone else to have to delay holiday whilst you have to remedy damage.

That's appalling, I'm so sorry I would be gutted if that had happened to me, so sorry.

Thanks. A bit stressful when you first see it, but vans can be fixed and then moved.

If this post saves anyone else from going through this, it has done its job.

If anyone is looking for storage in this area PLEASE walk round the site and check all the frames first.

Yes. But also has the same effect on customers, existing and new. Young great danes aren't too great for vans
