Hi this is the second time I have spent a few days on a campsite with the luxury of running water and electricity must admit that it does feel nice.
I'm on the same site has last year the redpost inn and tourist park on the A3072 between Bude and Holsworthy post code EX23 9NW .
WWW.REDPOSTINNHOLIDAYPARK.CO.UK
This place is well worth a visit good food,ale, and the site is fine it's quite and has a relaxed atmosphere also the charges are very attractive. www.redpostinnholidaypark.co.uk
While am here is will be charging all my battery operated items my Drill , torch, radio, shaver, cameras, computer and both of the vans batteries. Surprising how much we rely on battery operated items all these items can of course be charged by the vans charging system but you would have to lay some miles down on the road.
The cost of the fuel to do this against the cost of a three nights stay here is minimal !.
In September I will be posting a spreadsheet with all my living costs involved in living on the road this will include a first time set up cost for bedding, mattress towels ,pots and pans .
Essential items to me are as follows_ tax,insurance, mot,repairs,fuel,food,laundry, parking charges, campsite fee's, household items ( consumables ). I will not be including comfort and luxury items or personal items as I feel these are not essential also I will not be including the cost of the vehicle it's all about what it's costing to live the life while travelling around on the road. Please remember this costing will be a personal one and will vary depending on your own needs.
I have a computer a camera a video phone and I pad none of these are to me essential item's just comfort items.
You might consider the above items along with a TV ,microwave, washing machine, the add on awning as essential we all deffer in needs and interests also the choice of your base vehicle plays a big part in this.
Im not telling anybody this is how you do it !!. I'm showing you how i do it!
