Hi all, hope you are all keeping safe. I am looking ahead and thinking of trying cl sites in the future. But as some sites are on grass has anybody got any advice or tips as to the best way to level up the caravan if I was on grass. This is because I have never pitched on grass. Any advice most welcome. Thanks

Owners are lovely and it's our favourite spot for relaxing.
Another one is Deerholme Farm near Thornton Le Dale, just on the edge of Dalby Forest - mix of grass and hardstanding - and perfectly level.
Thebells - thanks for mentioning Low Hedgeley - we should be there now!!

Lakes
Penrith Slapestone Villa; hardstanding with views towards Ullswater fells. Moss Thorn, H/ S again. Patterdale Hall Estate, at southern end of Ullswater
Coniston Braithwaite; right in the centre of the village.
Keswick. Shoulthwaite; H/S one of the very first CL's to open.
Silloth. Horn House Fm, at Abbeytown, a gem in the far north of the Lakes.
Wigton Throstle Hall, H/S, another in the north.

Do you have a mover? Buy Milenco ramps. Put one under the tyre move the caravan until level. Chock the wheel with the other ramp. Sorted. Don't forget to level front and back. If you haven't got a mover pull the caravan up the ramp if you can because some hitches don't like coming off when under reverse pressure. Watch you don't pull off the ramp!!!!! We use CLs and rally fields most of the time.
I didn't check what had appeared. That's the problem with working on a Kindle, I find. Thanks.
