I know the 2 sites in devon tentman is on about for statics he is right there is a 12 month occupancy,the site owners advice you to move on for 3-4 weeks.

very good sites fantastic reputation,some that were 19k new are only 15k now due to whats happening financially.

I think this is cheaper than  road living.

We bought Dolphin MH (37')in US on retirement and decided to spend 12 months travelling around. Ended up spending 6 years travelling the states full-time from Mexico to Alaska. Best time of our lives!

I'd quite happily sell up everything over here and live in the caravan in Europe.

Just need the housing market to stabilise first as we have 2 houses to sell.

 Good sound advice there Grub, like you i haven't the nerve to just sell up and move around but wishing anyone that does it all the best.

We did it 19 months ago and still have no regreats, we use our daughters home  for our address  as we still have to have one to tax and  insure   the cars and caravan plus   banking etc. Our plan was to do  full timing when hubby retired but he hurt his knee  and had to give up work when he was 56, so when house prices shot up  we  sold ours at a silly price and  took off .We stay on cls to keep costs down and some will let you stay longer, we hope  to full time  for as long as possible barring ill health and  will cross that bridge  if  it comes to it.You only have one life  so i would say do it
