Introducing a novice

Welcome to CT , any questions just ask away ,your get good answers,bad answers and indifferent answers ,but it's all part of the fun 

Hello and welcome to CT.

Perhaps a visit to Lady Margaret's Park at Chirk, or the Chester site, might make for a first trip to let you find your feet without straying too far from home.

Have you found your way to the Solos section further down the forum's front page? There are several members posting there who are in similar situations to yourself.

Enjoy your motorhome.

Hi Judith,

Welcome to the wonderful world of touring, hope you have many happy outings ahead of you.

Alison

There are a couple of club sites on Anglesey, one a basic site without a toilet block and the other a standard site with the normal shower/toilet block. Not too far to drive for a first trip.

Hi

I also suggest Lady Margaret's at Chirk. A nice site within walking distance of Chirk itself & the aquaduct.

Hello Judith welcome to CT.  I also camp alone with my two "girls" - I have also discovered the several groups of Solo people that I found by browsing the CT forums.  My experience is limited in your area although Bedgelert stands out in my memory - but it is a C&CC  forestry site - very dog friendly as long as the whistle of the trains doesn't upset them.  My rescued dog was petrified the first time she heard it - we were parked about 3 foot from the railway line!  So that must mean it was about 10 years ago when she was new to me!  She soon got used to it which is just as well as I love steam trains!  I don't think anyone was watching my efforts to help her - I was jumping up and down in the caravan going "WHooo Whooo" like an excited 2 year old everytime a train came by! 

Enjoy! 

Hello and welcome to our hobby and CT. Staying local for the first outing is sensible, you can whizz home for anything forgotten 😉. Don't buy anything until you know you need it and will use it, we all have stuff we thought we couldn't manage without!

We're a helpful bunch with loads of knowledge, combined and singular. But you will learn there is no right or wrong way to proceed with almost everything to do with our hobby 🙄.  Read and learn, watch and learn 😆. If you need help on site do ask, it can be awkward for those watching you struggle too as they may not want to seem to be nosy or interfering- were British you know 😂.

As some have suggested there are others like yourself who travel alone so do check out their groups.

Finally enjoy yourself.

Thanks to all of you for your friendly advice.  Chirk sounds like a great idea!

A warm welcome to the club and our hobby from  me too Judith. Enjoy your pick up day tomorrow.

Hello judith enjoy your handover day tomorrow what motorhome did you buy ,? Im sure youll have a lovely time best regards mrs bc:))
