This was our first weekend away in the van after loads of breakdowns and technical problems. We found a campsite (Fallbarrow) right near the centre of Bowness which was perfect for us. It does have statics but it was a lovely site right next to the Lake and only 5 minutes walk to the centre of Bowness, plus it has a clubhouse that is open late. When we arrived on saturday it was really warm for the time of year. And we headed into the village for a look around. Bowness was a great place for a 1 nighter. A lively night out and lots of places to eat out too.
What we learned...
No. 1 - Heavy rain pounding the hi-top is not conducive to recovering from a BAD hangover.
No. 2 - Don't trust Argos EHU cables. Ours wasn't wired in at either end. Thanks go to the site mainenance staff for rewiring it for us.
No. 3 - The van still wasn't fixed. We broke down AGAIN with water in the fuel and a blocked filter on the way home.
