Is the law the same for parking a car and caravan the same as it is for a campervan?

    Considering going the car and caravan route rather than a campervan and wondered if it was possible / legal to park in a suitable spot by the side of the road and stay a night or two - obviously only in a spot where there was sufficient space.

    Also can I park caravan - small two berth - in one parking space and the car in another - and pay for parking for both spaces?

    Cheers

    A car and caravan outfit can legally park any place a car on its own can.
    However, if the caravan is unhitched and steadies put down then you will be subject to all the laws which are there to control the setting up of 'temporary dwellings' and be liable to being 'moved on'.
