Hi - Does anyone know of any good websites I could go to that offer tips to people who live in static caravans all year round? I'm looking for DIY tips and information on how to go about making steel-cages-on-wheels more like homes.

I've searched on the likes of Google but most of the sites only seem to cater for the tourer caravans. I've also tried the caravan information service website but I didn't find it particularly useful for my needs.

What about magazines? Are there any caravanning magazines aimed purely at those of us with static caravans?

Thanks.

Try looking up websites on Park Homes rather than caravans, they are similar and may offer more choice.

Most of us on this site use their caravans as holiday homes but I'm sure that like me we all try to make them as homely as possible although this is mostly cosmetic with me anyhow.

Plenty of pictures and other things you normally have around the house works for me. Try to paint a wall or something small and simple like that, it can help take away the out of the box feel a caravan can often have.

It may be worth taking a look at http://www.phhc.co.uk/

Can you maybe be more specific in what you are hoping to achieve? Its hard to suggest something as it is quite a personnel thng making a caravan feel like home.
