    Good job - as a Pathfinder owner for past 18 years only comments I would make are 1) We probably wouldnt have put the shower curtain down as we like to let the inside breathe (unless a we put-down in which case we would take them out again when all dry) 2) Might have missed it but didnt see you lift the yellow hot water tank drain lever near the hot water tank to drain the water prior to travel (mind you, you may simply have ben moving to another site) - but good job & very similar to what we do

    It’s amazing how everything comes apart and compacts down to a little trailer! I have always wondered how it all fitted! Thanks for sharing we found it really informative. ATB Sue, Brian and The Westies👍🐶🐾🐾😍

      I was the same, didn't know how it all folded down. I found it very interesting as well. Thanks for watching and supporting our channel. ATB 👍

    We camped in a pop up trailer when I was growing up. It was so much fun as a kid. I'm sure my parents thought it was a lot of work, but we camped all summer in it because they were both educators so they had part of the summer off to explore. So many memories.
    Love it. It's so much bigger than anything we ever had. We never had one with as big of a kitchen as this one, or a bathroom.

      It was the first time I have seen inside one and I was surprised how big it was. Thanks for watching 👍

    Over here we refer to them as "pop up campers". My oldest daughter Amber had a pop up camper for a few years, she pulled it with her Jeep. I have not seen one with zipper skirts for the bottom though. I imagine that skirting would help insulate the camper a great deal. As always its so fun to see how people RV across the pond. Thanks for sharing Mark!

    Clever design, but not sure if I would want one. I can see the practicality of these, easy to tow, not needing a large car and small enough to store at home. I think they could be filling a gap in the market. Great video, thanks for sharing❤

      Reading these comments, I think these folding campers are a bit like Marmite 😆

      Mike made it look very easy and I probably slowed him down by getting in his way, but it still only took 20 minutes. I was expecting it to take longer. Big thanks to Mike and Rose

    I do like how nice and compact it is when all folded up, but sure is quite the process of putting it away. I kind of prefer our camper where we just pull up and..... well that's it. It's ready lol.

    Great watching the fold away, but one question, how big was that pitch?

    • @HitchUpAndTow
      @HitchUpAndTow  11 місяців тому

      Don't know the size of there pitch, but most are pretty generous. When you book a holiday at Tregarton park, you get to pick your pitch, what size and facilities , ours was a XL Jumbo pitchwith water and drainage, size was 17.80M W x 8.30M D. Hope this helps

    Bonjour à tous, dommage pas de revendeurs en Belgique. Est-il possible d'avoir un pare-soleil en option? Ou extension auvent? Merci d'avance et bonjour de la Belgique. Super modèle et quelle qualité aussi.

      The owner had a full size awning attached on this trip, but we didn't show it as we just wanted to show how easy it was to fold away the camper. Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it 👍
