Camping in Great Britain also known as The UK.

Here I go again moaning about the rules living in the UK -

Do you know the rules for Camping in a Tent, Touring Caravan or Motorhome in the UK, well you'll be surprised to learn that once you camp on a registered site over-night and leave the next day you can't return for over a year, yes a year you can stay on that site for up to three weeks but no more, you can't camp within a fifteen mile radius of that site under a year.

When you turn up to a camping site you book-in/register your details, those details are past onto the authorities, ok who's bothered about that, that's OK they the authorities are all watching us and there'll be big problems if you camp again there within a year.

My Late parents had to put up with those rules and the same rules are still law nowadays Britain is simply a "NANNY STATE".

I wonder what year did the British people lose their Freedom.

Can you give a direct reference to this law? Although not for some years in my younger days I was a regular camper and never ever heard of this or was told and I regularly revisited campsites on the same trip.

@OldBrit A Police Officer has been in touch she said they are dropping this rule, apparently it was a Police Law/rule I was told about it on three camping sites years ago, my Late Parents were as well.

Obviously my blog on SW had been noticed my neighbour was told about it recently, I remember camping at "Black Rock Sands" Porthmadog the Police turned up and told everyone of us that rule they were enforcing it, however apparently it is now dropped.

Such a relief if I run into any problems with that rule I'll let you all know as well as the Caravan Club

You simply escaped having that rule thrown at you I had it thrown at me at three different sites years ago my neighbour has heard it this year, hopefully it's been dropped for good.
