Hi John and Lisa
The caravan club have some really nice sites in Norfolk, and we found that their sites are a good way to start for novices to get their confidence as they have everything you need, big pitches to get on, good directions to find them, and park up next to another motorhome and you'll find out anything you need to know! Broadlands near Great Yarmouth is lovely and peaceful, Seacroft at Cromer is a short walk from town, and (if you can get on) Sandringham is also nice. Have a great time motorhoming, but be careful - you get hooked!!

parts 3 & 4 would be most relevant for you.
Don't go too far, get everything loaded up & go for a "shakedown" trip so you get the hang of it without feeling too much of a prat!

Welcome to you both John & Lisa. May you have many hppy hours in your new "home". I agree with Mike-stay within just a few miles of your dealer to start with, just in case you need a bit of attention when you try everything out, then you can move on to enjoy "in earnest"!
