A new holiday caravan, midweekA new holiday caravan, at the weekend
The town goes quiet midweek. The boats still run, and the caravan’s fire is on when you get back.
Friday and Saturday nights in town, and a warm caravan a few minutes’ walk away when it’s time to go home.
An amazing peaceful setting but all the action is a very short walk away.
