We've become big fans of Serviced Pitches recently.

We bought this:

and a lenght of tubing for the Waste.

May be silly question but ........ is there a certain place that the waste outlets normally are on serviced pitches so you know how much waste pipe you need to buy ??

I'm scared buying in case the next one I go to is different place.

I have just used my normal waste carrier and wheeled it over and pored it down the hole lol

No standard place, seems to be totally random. For a long time we had to buy a bit more waste hose everywhere we went, then changed 'van and needed a different size. Best thing is to have some connectors and various lengths of pipe, so you can create a custom length. Longest we've needed was about 8 metres, shortest about 0.6 metres. Have needed 25 metres of water hose a few times though!

Well, had a great time, and as already said on here, Hafan y Mor tourers site is great. Very clean, and far enough from the main (old Butlins) complex to be in a nice spot, but close enough to the hustle and bustle as well.

Thanks for the advice everyone. Looking for another excuse to go away for another weekend soon!
