Hello all, happy Easter. We are motorhome virgins so be gentle. Taking the plunge this summer and decided on hiring a motorhome to do the Scottish Highlands and Islands (yes, someone else who has decided that our lovely currency is too weak for the usual european jaunt!) - 2 adults, 2 kids sub-10. 2 weeks mid August.
Renting seems straight forward enough. Have found a number of websites and I'll be doing a big ring around tomorrow to ask searching questions like "are you allowed to make tea while you drive". Recommendations & warnings always welcome of course.
One idiotic newbie question concerns where you can/cannot park up and sleep. Do you really need to book sites ahead? Do you need sites at all? Any "must stay" places? Any tried & tested island hop routes? Can you just pick a parking area or remote layby or are there any laws or bylaws etc stopping you. As you can tell, I'm clueless right now but I'm hoping to be an expert by the end of the week!
Thank you in advance for your help.
