In the second part of my relaxed and chilled caravan holiday, we travel to the town of Pickering in North Yorkshire and a delightful Camping and Caravanning Club Certificated Site (CS). The CS is right next to Pickering Station and the North Yorkshire Moors Railway (NYMR).
For the next couple of days we do little else than ride in vintage carriages in this delightful Heritage Railway to Grosmont and back, take long walks with the dogs, and prepare and cook simple and wholesome food. It's my idea of heaven :)
One night it gets very cold (we even have a frost) and I find the gas heating too noisy. I instead use an electric oil-filled radiator powered by the V2L connection of my Kia EV6. The V2L allows the car to be used as a 220 volt 13 amp power supply. I measure the battery before bed, and after I get up, and the overnight consumption of the 750 watt heater might surprise you.
