Help - Unable to tow

I am not sure why you say that your licence does not allow you to tow.

Because the rules regarding what you can & can't  tow are as clear as mud. How many times do you see new comers  talk about a 'towing licence'?

The usual question is 'what can I tow' etc. I do agree though regarding clarity or should that be opaqueness? 

 Why don't others recommend taking the test to allow the OP to tow anything?  That's surely the easiest solution.

There are plenty of sites who would store your caravan and then pitch it for you for the duration of your stay.  The one that is always on the tip of my tongue is Globe Vale, just outside Redruth in Cornwall, but it really all depends on where you want to go?  An idea of the area would give folk something to go on.

If I were in your position, I would probably site is as you describe and then make provision to get your B+E driving licence.  I can't imagine us wanting to site our caravan on the same site for long - we get so much more going to different places - including abroad.

I know that, if I was unable to drive and wanted my caravan siting, I have a couple of neighbours who would gladly do that for me. I would not choose somewhere more than 50 miles away as OH does drive but is not a keen driver and further might be a pain and also far enough to ask as a favour. 

because it's not cheap & some people have better/more important things to spend their hard earned on.

Because it is over £600 to take the lessons and test.This was a few years ago now.Just how many people on that age group could afford that.

Now I understand they possibly did not need to take this test due to the gross weight of car and van being under 3.5t.

I hate grey areas.

No idea what age group the OP is or what licence he may hold

Mollysmummy has it right, but without knowing what car the OP has available to him, the only possible answer to his question is YES - now where do you want to go ? Here are two scenarios both real:

A work colleague bought a brand new Swift Challenger & as part of the deal arranged for it to be delivered to a site on the North Yorks coast where he arranged a seasonal pitch. He had the van for 2 years & never towed it once arranging with a tow company to put it in & out of storage during the winter.

A family member doe not have B+E on his licence, but can still tow a Avondale 630 with his Ford Cmax & stay within the 3500kgs gross train weight limit.

Different strokes........

I can't quite work out why Adamf posted as he/she hasn't returned to acknowledge folks advice or join in the conversation.  Do we have a phantom?
