I should imagine its a case of personal preference.
So trailer it is - quids in all round.
Without doubt it's a personal choice.
But I make the point because I don't think people do think this choice through.
We didn't. It was a case of "caravans, that's what poor olde fartes who cause traffic jams use, MH, the real deal, just get in and go.".
Three years on I see a broader picture. Yes indeed a MH is get up and go, which is what we do. But I have experienced the downside, stuck on site wishing we had a scooter or car for visits just too far for our pushbikes or too crowded to take the MH. Now folk in this position then take the quick view "oh we need to tow something" but fail to take a broad view and ask "if I am towing what is the optimum thing to tow".
Then I think there is a very strong argument to tow something light and low drag with a vehicle that is low drag, efficient and gives on site transport.
I have no experience of caravans so I may be talking a load of bollox.
