Caravan owners could be issued heavy fines and even face a court appearance for parking on their own driveway due to a little-known rule.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Experts at Ripe Caravan Insurance warn some houses may contain clauses in their deeds which prevent caravans from being parked on a driveway.<\/p>\n

According to the specialist, some UK homes come with restrictive covenants with caravans banned.\u00a0<\/p>\n

It means caravan owners can be taken to court by their own neighbours in a possible blow to keen holidaygoers this autumn and winter.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Experts have now urged drivers to check their property deeds before assuming it is okay to leave the heavy vehicles wherever they like.<\/p>\n
