How many nights away in 2023?

91 for us, about 15 less than planned as we shortened our UK tour to get some work done on the van.

CAMC    38

C&CC    13

France   40

There would have been 3 nights on a commercial, plus more of both clubs if we hadn’t shortened.

The longest trip was 45 days and the shortest 3. Total mileage was just over 4000.

We didn't do much at all in 2023 mainly as result of a cancelled trip because of Margaret's hip causing her mobility issues. Only a total of 33 nights which is very low for us but not so unusual if compared when we were working and the boys came with us. 

CMC                 17

CMC Affiliated    4

C&CC                4

Commercial        8

Only covered about 1500 miles. Longest trip away 14 nights. Site costs £1124 so an average of about £34 a night.

We did 95 nights last year. 6 on camc club sites 10 on camping club sites, the rest split between private, Cl, Cs,  & forestry, but mainly THS sites with no ehu at around £15 per night.

2023 saw us away in our MH for 141 nights :

Spring Trip to Spain via France - 60 nights

UK Commercial Site - 6 nights

CCC THS - 14 Nights

Autumn Trip to France - 61 nights

Total mileage was 6,207.

We only managed 90 nights last year, commercial x 5 nights, 1 club (no facilities in Wales) x 6 nights and the rest CL’s

We managed 133 nights in total, about our norm. 

Over 2 trips the spring one was car and caravan 60 nts, the autumn trip was MH 72 nts. We only stayed in France on the spring trip. 

France 68 nts

Spain 41 nts

Portugal 11 nts

CMC 1 nt

C&CC 3 nts

CL 4 nts

Private 2 nts

Ferries 3 nts

Miles 8982 mls split over 2 long trips, 1 with car and caravan, 1 with the MH. 

Add to that 21 nights in the Canaries but we didn't take the van there 😅

Hopefully this year will be around the same. 

We had about 70 nights away, and DD and family also used the van for 21 nights.

CAMC 4 

Commercials   (DD) 21,      (us)  14

CCC   18

CLs      34

All in UK, no idea of miles

More than usual! 

4 + 6 +7 = 17.

All CAMC.

Too busy farming to get away - which has to be negociated with the two generations below us.

We were away for 74 nights which is slightly down what we usually do - largely as a result of Ros's accident in April.  Made up of:

55 CLs /CSs

3 Commercial

16 CAMC

What is noticeable is that our average nightly cost went up to £28pn from £22, last year - largely attributable to increase in CAMC pitch fees.

Bit of a lightweight compared to most on here.

3 CL/CS

5 Ad Hoc park ups

13 Aires

4 O/Seas sites

3 UK sites

1 C&CC

Total 36 UK nights 30 O/seas avg cost £13pn
