Social media removal.

In a world of social media, Motorhomecraic has decided to close down all Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and other social media groups.

Rather than using social media, we will continue to spend time on our website where information is easily found by other Motorhomers and not locked in a closed group on social media, "Information for Motorhomers on the Internet"



Our Facebook experiment has brought out exactly what we thought it would.



Motorhomes are for travel & friendships. That is what Motorhomecraic represents. The meeting of people, the information sharing and above all the Craic.

At Motorhomecraic we prize, above all else, your company at our meets and our events. Our focus is on personal, face-to-face relationships. No matter how great social media proclaims to be, it can never replace those priceless moments.


As a website with 30 million views, the upkeep and management of our social media accounts is time consuming with no real reward for our members. Information is lost in seconds, repeated questions get asked over and over.

Meeting people, sharing experiences and sharing online information is what Motorhomecraic is about. Motorhomecraic is the biggest resource of information for Motohomers, visiting or touring Ireland, whether they are indigenous Motorhomers or are here for a brief time, the information is available here on motorhomecraic.com

This decision is not up for debate, it is a final decision. Our Facebook page will remain for announcements only.


We will always continue to promote the Motorhome Parking Ireland App which we believe is the best way for Motorhomers, when touring, to enjoy Ireland using the latest technology.

Heard this argument many times and I have considered it a lot. My answer is this.........

That affects us how, exactly? doesn't affect me or you on motorhomecraic.com - I'll not go into the reasons why I have came to that conclusion as I have posted it many times on here.

How does it affect them? when they search on the problem they have with their motorhome, it won't be facebook that comes up in a search engine with the answer, it will be a fully search engine friendly website and forum like Motorhomecraic.com

I have been on the internet from the begining, have seen it change a lot, I may be wrong in this decision but it wasn't taken lightly by moderators and admin and the vote that took place a year ago. The decisions that have been very bad for Motorhomecraic have been taken by other people against my judgment.

I think this is the right one for Motorhomers in Ireland, the future will decide whether I was right or not.



If it was good enough for Wetherspoons it's good enough for us

We already have and we will lose more. We are however gaining some from there whom are sick of its useless format for information. People have Facebook devices now and that's mostly all they use on those devices, I'm well aware of this. I however, tend not to be a sheep and go, where I think, is the better direction for MHC.

Said it many many times, Facebook is good for idle chit chat and keeping in touch with family and friends, that's it. They are going to end up with a forum format, it's been heading that way for sometime, it has too, it can't keep up with the information and popularity. Corporate owned forum formats have been around for a long time. I know what happens to most of them.

I'll shut up now, most are not interested in my views on this subject, maybe I should start a blog as I could go on and on about the demise of what was the internet due to Facebook.

Glad you think I am making the right decision, I certainly do.

I've been having a look at your books, was about to start with the trilogy, but should I begin earlier?

For Davids book continue...

Ok, there is a bit of confusion out there.

We closed our Facebook GROUP - not our Facebook PAGE - it can still be found here and will be used for announcements, only admin can create a new post. https://www.facebook.com/motorhomecraic/

Why would we need a group? we already have one here motorhomecraic.com
