Couple sold home for €155,000 to move into a 1989 caravan and create a sustainable campsite

In 2022, Jon and Emilia James (36 and 37) sold their house for about €155,000 and bought an abandoned campsite in Llanelli, South Wales. After the purchase of the three-hectare site, they had about £500 left. For the first three years, they lived in a 1989 caravan with no fridge, running water, and a camping toilet that had to be emptied manually. During that time, the couple installed solar panels and renovated the property themselves, turning it into self-sufficient tourist accommodation with cabins, renewable energy, and a wood-fired sauna.

Caravans return to Newport playing fields days after football shutdown

An unauthorised encampment has reappeared on public playing fields in Newport. Caravans and vehicles were seen on the pitches at Kimberley Park, off Malpas Road, on Saturday, July 18. This comes days after Albion Rovers FC suspended all training and matches due to a previous encampment at the site. The club notified Newport City Council, which is working to resolve the situation. Residents have expressed concern about the duration of the encampment and its impact on use of the fields by children and local teams.
