yes we do, don't take canopy or awning for short weekends but we are away from Christmas Eve until New years day and will be putting the awning up for that long stay. we love being in the caravan when its cold, it's so lovely to see the landscape changing with the seasons

I do keep going but less frequently and not as far. Limited for choice of sites in central Scotland too that are open all year. Don't use an awning or canopy at any time of year. Next booked trip is 10 days at Edinburgh CAMC site from boxing day ... only 20 miles away but far enough if the weather is rough.

Yep we also caravan all year round.. love to wake up to a frost and all nice and cozy in the van …😊

A massive yes from us. we did Shetland in Feb 2023 for the fire festival. Switzerland and Germany in the Alps in spring. Just back from Norway and Sweden four weeks in the Arctic circle and higher. wet and windy in the UK, fine by me.

Hi there Phil & Juliet, We’ve just returned from our November trip and although not booked we’re planning on an early December trip, weather permitting. Otherwise that’s it until Feb. No awning just walking boots 😁, that’s us. All the best, Rob & Gail 😀

If you’re a fan of the outdoors why not? If you’re a fair weather traveller then fine- hibernate. Our caravan site is now in winter mode and we welcome winter travellers here in the North East of Scotland. You must come prepared though, but snow and Northern lights can be stunning!

Hi Phil and Juliet. We love to winter caravan but do not take the awning. It does restrict us for space but saves having the arduous process of drying it out when we get home.

All year for us caravan and motorhome. We used to put the full awning up at Christmas and New Year. With the Motorhome we have the canopy if we need it but have only used it 4 times in 8 years.

Love winter Caravanning and we are in Scotland. Been away last week then having a week at start of December then going away again 2nd January It seems a shame not to enjoy sitting in a lovely toast van

Hi Phil & Juliet, we caravan all year round, but didn't use the awning in winter, in fact we didn't use the awning a lot in summer, so have now gone for a canopy just for some sun shade. Hope you both have a great time over winter and hope to see you out there next year. ATB Mark & Coral

Hi, we live in the north west too . We dont normally go away in the caravan after October, but this year going away all being well for New years eve, Will wait to see what the weather is like before putting our porch awning up. Happy caravanning x

Hi Phil I’m taking things out this week and it gets serviced Tuesday before it goes into Hibernation. Thanks for all the help and tips you’ve give us this season all the best till next season

Morning all. We do try and go away in the winter but wont be this year due to my surgery the end of November. But to be honest the novelty of winter caravanning is wearing off. Made much more difficult with a big dog and 7 year old boy. If the weather is miserable we dont want to be stuck in the van as i wouldn't take the awning anymore in winter. Take care all. 👍

Hello Juliet and Phil, last year we had are last trip out mid November, we were planning on going to the Lake District for new year, but then thought what if it snowed, the lady on the site said no problem there is always some one with a four wheel drive to get you to the main road witch is all well and good but, there is no way we could get the caravan back into the store age yard if it had snowed back home, and there is no chance of storing it anywhere else 👍.

Hi Phil and Juliet, thanks for your interesting video. We tend to winter caravan just staying around four days mainly in Snowdonia, specifically for hiking and landscape photography. I'm not so keen on November getaways, but December, January and February can be spectacular in Snowdonia with snow on the high peaks. The Morris Leisure sites at Llanberis and Betws are well set up for the winter season. I think using the available daylight with early starts to the hike is key because of the short daylight hours.

No, once the clocks change our van is parked on the drive. We like to walk and it's not so much fun when it's muddy and wet.

Morning. We live in the Northwest to Near Chester. We're going away on Wednesday for few days that will be it till end January. We're lucky our caravan is on the drive so can check on it. No don't put awning up in winter but i do miss it. Carn't kick Keith out. 😂 . Xx

I didn’t last year, but have got one booked end of November and away for New Year. Don’t put my awning up for weekends, just longer trips. This is only my 2nd year of owning my caravan.

North! You don't live 'up north', you live in the south! We live in the Scottish Highlands, north of Inverness and we caravan in the winter. Le Shuttle is booked for the beginning of December and we will be heading south for Christmas in the sunshine. It takes us 3 days to get to Folkestone then we'll drive south through France, Spain and Portugal. If the weather is really bad en route we stop until it improves, then move on. We have the cover for our Aquaroll, plenty of gas and will be using EHUs at sites. A warm cosy caravan is a joy when the weather is frosty outside. Good luck with the wedding.

100% yes winter caravan Boxing Day off on our travels it’s so cosy you just adapt and take a different approach to life in the caravan and the scenery and wildlife in the winter is beautiful

Hi both, really enjoy your Vlogs. Keep meaning to put a few up myself but cant find the time. We try and get a trip out in November and quite often join our friends for a January trip. Living in Pembrokeshire SW Wales with the weather changing by the our, we will venture to the Cotswolds or even just as far as mid Wales (Brecon) for our trips. Look forward to your next Vlog. All the best Jason & Marie.

Hi, we put ours to bed drained down mid October,. The weather has been awful . Pitch fees are expensive enough so, Cover on, wait till Feb service ready for spring.

Nah …. The vans back in it’s plastic bag till early spring in storage. Prefer somewhere warm - off to Tenerife in December then Benidorm in January for 3 weeks Congrats on wedding to all ! Regards Howard n Sandra 👍🏻

Afternoon Phil & Juliet. We are hopefully picking up a 2019 sprite major 4 SB next week and hope to get out a few times over the winter. We have done winter caravanning in the past but want to do it more often.

We normally stop in November and restart in March just before going to Spain for 80 days, in between we have short city breaks using deals from premium inn/ or pubs B&B. The advantages of being retired 😂

I am too NW based and a bit 'nesh' so yes once the clocks change the caravan gets permanently stored. There's a few trips planned over the Winter and early next year but they will all be chez Premier Inn or European equivalents....👌

Hi Phil and Juliet, I hope you're both well. We are going to winter caravan going this new year. We normally take the rollaway and not a great deal of stuff outside . Less is more 😂 congratulations on your up and coming daughters wedding 😊 cheers Paul and Sarah

Morning Phil & Juliet I’ve one more trip and in fact will be collecting van from storage later today. Next trip will probably be February, November & February trips does that qualify as a Winter Caravaner? I don’t take awning on my later / earlier trips. Take care ❤️
