If you are anything like me whatever space you have you will manage to fill. So how do you manage to store everything you need for holidaying or living in a static caravan?
Well, first bit of advise for those of you who are holidaying, comes from my better half, who always tells me to pack half as many clothes and twice as much money as you first thought (and he is usually right!). But seriously, looking at some of the practical solutions to storage in static caravans these days I have listed my favourites below:-
- Vacuum Bags - they come in all shapes and sizes to suit clothes and bedding and can be stored dust & moisture free in all the out of the way places - under the beds; at the bottom of the wardrobe or on the highest shelves that normally only collect dust. (Just Google them if you haven't come across them yet)
- Next - get yourself some multi - hangers so that you can hang more than 1 item on each hook. Great for shirts, trousers, skirts etc.
- Another good idea is a box footstool - great if you have children for storing toys, games, books and DVDs etc.
- I've also found (in a specialist camping outlet) caravan shoe organisers - these have pockets and a zip front to stop things falling out. I use mine to store shoes, cleaning materials etc. All the things you don't want on the floor creating a trip hazard.
- Finally I find having a glass cover over the hob is great for creating extra worktop space when you are not cooking in the kitchen.
If any of you have any other bright ideas for storage, do let me know. You can add any useful ideas in the Comment box below.

Decking for your static caravan can be made from a few different materials but no matter the material they are all made to a high standard. The standards for decking especially around statics need to be high as these homes away from home can take a serious beating by the weather, especially on the southwestern coast.
Here at Surf Bay Leisure, we are excited to be hosting another April show and it is right around the corner! Head down with the family to see the latest and greatest from our three manufacturers (ABI, Swift and Atlas) and maybe find your new holiday home.
What is the lifespan of a Static Caravan?
The lifespan of a Static Caravan can vary, however, like with most things if it is looked after and properly maintained then you could expect the static caravan to reach up to 30 or more years on private land. Parks will generally ask for it to be upgraded around the 15-year mark to keep the park looking appealing and safe.

Location:
What is the ideal location? This varies from person to person, but it is important to consider what makes a holiday special to you, is it being near stunning coastlines like you might find in Tintagel or would you prefer to be surrounded by the countryside like you might find near Winkleigh. Luckily if you enjoy both these things then the Southwest has it covered. The sea and countryside are never more than a 30-minute drive away from each other.

Winter storms have been relentless across Devon and Cornwall over the last few months, and this was followed by a vicious tide that has now exposed a slice of history previously hidden beneath the waves. The wreck of the three ships is a stern reminder of the perils that sailors of the past had to undertake. The ships in question all sank around 130 years ago and their stories are etched into the sands of Carbis Bay.
The Eden Sessions
Cornwall is known for its stunning natural landscapes, but did you know that Cornwall also has a massive music scene? Cornwall has always been a big place for music and some of the earliest discovered ‘dance music’ manuscripts were believed to be from around 1750 – 1850. It is believed that this music spanned the classes and was generally enjoyed by all.
