We’re always trying to improve the value of our membership at Retro Camping Club, and we’ve entered a partnership with Protec Covers to bring our members discounts and the latest information for the leisure vehicle industry.

 

Protec’s latest blog post is a comprehensive guide to saving money while in your motorhome or caravan, which we think is more than useful in the current economic climate.
