First caravan break in a couple of weeks - the outfit has arrived and is sat on the drive, I am working out how it all operates and worrying about all the details.
We have a hard standing pitch with awning booked, but haven’t yet picked up an awning. I have my eye on one but at 3.6m deep it seems big - I’m worried it’ll overhang the pitch, which I understand is a no-no. Can guylines/storm straps reach onto the grass?
In researching all this I see talk of a ‘peg’ - I assumed there’s some kind of marker denoting where you should locate the van and this will ultimately determine how much space you have on the pitch to the side, which may have to accommodate the awning and a car.
Will a large awning like that cause problems at some sites or is it nothing to worry about? The outfit is 2.23m overall width.
