Overnight in caravan in winter & extra toilet needed for Xmas guests

lonestarfan

I have a lot of guests coming at Christmas but have only 1 toilet. No time, or room or money to build an extra loo. I don't want them to stay at a hotel. We all want to be together.
What ideas has anyone got. I could hire a mobile caravan thing and put it on the drive - I have a large drive, or hire a portaloo for outside - not keen as they're a bit plasticy or a mobile toilet unit for outside which I think needs a 13amp plug which is no problem but theres no prices on the websites I've looked at. Any ideas - keep them clean and sensible please - thanks.
Also what have I overlooked that I don't know about eg water pumps, access to electricity. Any websites and prices info welcome. Thanks everyone.

We've got 7 people staying. In a 3 bed house with a large garden and drive. We've done it before with one toilet and at least the bathroom and toilet are separate. I investigated building an extension or a toilet after last year but it was jut too prohibitive. So I'm only really looking for one extra mobile loo not 2 or more.

Sorry it's 8 not 7

7 people. Is that all. Thats hardly a lot of people for one toilet. I wouldn't worry about it. Its all part of the christmas fun.

I know lol. As I said we've managed before. But we do have one particular toilet hogger lol & the other family member who wants us to stay at theirs has two loos so if I can overcome that issue then the vote comes to me and yes as unbelievable as it sounds my life will be at lot easier at my place.

As your bathroom and toilet are separate maybe you could put a caravan type chemical toilet in your bathroom? £45 + chemicals.

Thanks. Not a bad price. I did think of one them as we thought of buying one for our holiday and never got round to it. I'm not sure it's what I'm looking for as I want something less portaloo and more luxury and sturdy but thanks as you've reminded me we do need to think about getting one for the car next year as we do have a loo problem in my family lol 😊.

If your guests are incontinent then adult nappies would be easier to manage than portaloos.

I would be more worried about access to a shower than a loo with 7 in 1 house.

You're probably right lol ��������

Well that wasn't going to happen for long was it?:rotfl::rotfl:

Without offence to Tony, the caravan portaloo isn't a good idea as anyone who's ever tried to clean a decent No2 out of 1 will tell you:eek:

I think it was Phill who said 7 isn't many, well I too was thinking 20 or so.
The best advice is do as you did before, you will manage
