As a continuation to the discussion previously regarding Caravan vs Motorhome numbers, and following my “count” at Home Farm in Anglesey last weekend, I thought I would start a thread to do an informal survey of numbers

Last 2 days at Southport CAMC, and as of a few minutes ago there are roughly 120 outfits here
80 are Caravans
40 are MoHos including 5 VW sized

any one else interested please feel free to post your “ count”

No agenda here, just out of interest

I would be well impressed if you could say how many Brit vans versus the continental variety.

1100 people i our village, divided by say an average of 4 persons per house = 275 "homes" and i know of 18 camping cars in our village so that's 1 camper for every 15.30 people. There's 4 caravans that i know of as well.

We usually find that in the early season when it's colder and wetter that then % of camping cars is much higher vs caravan and anything else. Com the summer that all changes for those on longer vacations and with the better weather all the true campers in tents literally pop up

Sounds about the right split. But for MHers accounting for about a third of the club membership it would still be called the Caravan Club.

I didn't do a count at Cirencester Park a week ago. Nevertheless the MHs were abundant. The number of caravans might have been greater had the grass pitches not been closed because of all the rain and bookings cancelled by the wardens.
