Charlie Graham drops in to talk about vehicle and caravan fridge slides, the different types of slides and how they are becoming more and more popular with caravanners and 4WD owners.

Caravan Park Confessions sees a serious health related story in which a park guest thought it was crucial to call the park manager instead of triple zero when suffering a heart attack.

ECCParks Chairman Jason Filippini talks about how park managers are well trained and prepared for such situations.

Scott catches up with Brisbane base adventurer – Brig Dooley – who has downsized from a 23 foot caravan to get away on what she calls circuit breaker holidays to reset.

She travels with a dog and lists a number of her favourite spots and provides some tips on packing and unpacking a van that will save you time and weight.

We head to the stunning ECCParks New Zealand –All Seasons Holiday Park Rotorua, and discover what is magical about this park, and is definitely one you should put on your bucket list.

A stone’s throw away to the lake, with a heated enclosed pool, and the park is littered with life sized dinosaurs and is only a short distance away from all that Rotorua has to offer.
