Winter

Hi Folks, as a newbie having had our new Coachman for a couple of months, having had 4 enjoyable trips out and one more to go this weekend. I was wondering if I could get some ideas of winterising our caravan over the next few months. I have heard different ideas of having things like moving the soft furnishings away from the walls to taking them out completely. Also leaving a roof vent slightly ajar to provide ventilation throughout the inside. I will of course remove the battery at home on a trickle charge to maintain its capacity. A colleauge has also mentioned having a device that attracts any condensation that builds up in the van. I dont have a cover at the moment but will get one as soon as our finances allow as I think this will help.My van will be stored at a outdoor storage facility in Sheffield. I can remove all soft furnishings and take them home with me but will take up valuable space at my house. Any ideas from seasoned tourers would be welcom.
