right looking to do some subby work around the uk. just wondering how you go about accomadation.

Chuck the bikes out of the race van and rough it in that for a couple of weeks at a time

 

Or drop in on those long lost relatives who just happen to live near to your proposed work site.

well we just have panel van ha . and a caravan ... doesnt look very good if your pulling a 25ft caravan on the back of a transit tipper ***** springs to mind. but im thinking the caravan is the best bet.

A search for B&B's in each location should be straight-forward enough. Then get dialing. Should be some reasonable deals to be negotiated if you plan to stay a while.

Why not ask fellow Arb talk users for accommodation, this could be the start of a new thing, like the youth hostel association, but called the arbhostal association.

We used to do it with a caravan years ago. The novelty wore thin trying to heat a 5 gallon bucket of water to wash with in February:001_smile: The only trouble working away is the fact you tend to spend money in the pub to relieve the boredom on winter nights.

Hi there I have a ford transit and I had it converted in to a camper I had all the insulation done also a side window and sky light put in plus a diesel heater it has a toilet a cooker and a near full size bed and lighting .

 

It's a really good way to go if you are staying away most of the time .

With accommodation costing between 10 & 50 per night it soon pays for it's self . I live in mine most of the time as work uk wide for weeks at a time .

 

It's the way forward for you All the best
