Water

[Mrwotsits]

Hi all, being a complete newbie to Motorhome life I’m wondering where apart from campsites, you all find places to fill water tanks?. I will mostly be based in the South of Uk but all answers appreciated

Campsites and home, mostly. It is considered rude to use fire hydrants and taps found on the side of people's houses. Across Europe there are usually aires, which often have water points you can use (for a small fee) and either stay the night or move on. In the UK, you can join C&CC and pop in to club sites to top up even if not staying (but not currently, due to COVID). You might have luck at a pub if you ask nicely, but you'll probably have to order dinner. They might even let you use the car park overnight if you hit it off.

If you've got a big tank, you can go many days between fills. You can just use a campsite every so often to fill up.

Cemeteries normally have an outside tap along with as mentioned garage forecourts.

Get yourself one of these as some taps in the areas mentioned will need this to operate them.

Hi and Welcome. Be mindful that it’s not just about filling up with fresh water but the need to dispose of your toilet waste and grey water so a visit to a low cost site every few days is advisable if looking to keep costs down and wild camping.

Bear in mind that if you take water anywhere without permission you are stealing it.

Join the dirty dozen and don;t wash for a week, social distancing will be no problem at all
