with a little sadness we`ve decided to put our cheltenham sable up for sale as we found another,lighter and older caravan
good points
tows well,we`ve been to wales,cheddar and a few local camps since buying it from a barn last year
has electric hook up with a RCD which runs the inside lights and a few sockets
doesn`t leak
gas lantern works(I love that!)
right bad bits
some of the windows don`t open at the moment as the top screws have rusted away
some rot buy the main door
one leg needs replacing/welding,but does hold the van up
the second aux cable needs a new socket(we didn`t have one on our towcar)
someone put a fridge in,then took it out so there`s a gap
no toilet


cooker works fine,nice to have a roast at a camp!
its a nice light van,weighing only 650kg and we`ve been towing it with a 1972 vw camper




oh and looking around £900
