Need undercover storage not too far from Heathrow

We live in Brisbane, Australia and we have visited the UK & Europe several times over the years using motorhomes..

We have a plan to buy a new or near new motorhome (perhaps an Autotrail Tracker FB lo-line) in 2017 and use it for three months each summer to tour UK & Europe.

Buying is easy but storage is a problem.  We will need undercover storage for 3 years with  the ability to charge the batteries each month.

Please offer suggestions.  We can't proceed unless we sort out the storage.

We'll fly into Heathrow so storage that's within an hour or two of there would be great.

Is there a member that could offer storage and manage the motorhome for us?

Cheers

Greg

Thanks for those replies.  I'll investigate them.

My ultimate solution would be to pay a fellow club member that has barn space.  Any suggestions?

GBXRS,  don't put too much hope on finding a member with a barn near LHR, probably a housing estate by now!  There will  probably be many members in the south of England waiting to see if you have any success then following you!  Anyway, good luck with your search

Thanks.  I'm happy to travel an hour or two or will that still be housing estates?

If any members can help, that would be good.

I tried a couple of sites that offer indoor storage but it turns out that's not available for motorhomes.

It's difficult tyring to find anywhere that offers indoor storage from here in Australia.

GBXRS. Take a look at the above link. Some storage facilities listed in Berkshire and Buckinghamshire. Not terribly far from Heathrow I think
