We went yesterday the vans were great if looking for new one or just getting a idea but I was disappointed in the lack of stalls selling accessories
I think there are more stalls at the Camping and Caravan show in February. We went this year and there seemed to be more. We are going next year as need things for our camper.
I was also hoping there would be more stalls as I had a shopping list! Just got 2 sun loungers. Bit disappointed but the new caravans made up for it! We'll be upgrading next year to a new one
------------- keep on caravanning, life is too short
We looked at the new caravans and couldn't find anything we liked as much as ours...they all seem really cramped inside.
It was a first time for us, we've never been before. Went to look for a porch awning...liked the vango varkala, but they wouldn't do any deals...came home and got on of t'internet for £200 less. Don't think we'll be going again.
We bought our first (new to us) caravan yesterday. We'll need a few bits and bobs for it - new chairs, sun canopy, wastemaster, etc etc. Is it worth going to a show - Liverpool? Birmingham? for those kind of things?

Personally I wouldn't bother. Have a good look on Amazon Ebay etc if you want new stuff..... add all the stuff up at the cheapest you can get them and then visit a local dealer or two and ask how much for a job lot and then be prepared t haggle down. If you don't mind second hand then try Preloved or similar though some people have an inflated idea of what they can ask.
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
