Looking to stay near Gerard's cross over the Bank Holiday weekend.
Within 20 miles
Any suggestions of any sites with electric hook up

Wyatt's Covert, a Caravan Club site is very close. It is small and you would be advised to book ahead. Don't approach it from the north at night if at all possible. The road had wheel swallowing potholes when we were there a year or so ago.

Hi, would this be a good site to stay at (few days) for visiting London by train, bus etc? Looking to do this in early spring maybe.
Thanks in advance ??

Looking on Google maps it is about a mile, possibly a little more, to the nearest tube/rail station at Denholm. I think the road is walkable but I don't remember a pavement. Taxi might be an option. I suggest ringing the site and asking them how easy it is to get to the station.

Thanks DBK, ? I'll do that nearer the time as I am changing my motorhome before I go.
Looking for sites outside the zone & with easy access to trains into London. Will be travelling from near Bristol so West of London probably best?

If you've got the dates firm for your trip I would suggest you book now as it may be full if you leave it too late.

Some time back Google showed at least 2 Motorhomes parked at Denholm Station?.

Don't have firm dates yet but can be later than Spring, just has to be after I've changed the motorhome, which will be late Feb/early March (hopefully!)

Thanks, think I'd rather leave the motorhome on the site & get to the station by bus or taxi (or walk if not too far, lol)

The trip to Denholm from the camp site is around 350 miles so I would not recommend walking but its about a mile and a half to Denham railway station.

Thanks PeteH, probably be the bus or taxi then! ? ?
Might not be this site, there may be another which would be better for London.

Reason I know is that we looked at leaving the M-H at Denham Station, when I went to renew My US Visa. In the end we stayed in a Hotel.
