If you have a campervan where do you keep it?

Other than on your drive if you have one. Parking around me is dire. I do have a garage where I park my car that I could use. It would be quite a pricey solution but wondering what others do, especially over Winter.
I don’t have a van yet but if I get one it will be a small romahome type one.

We have a motorhome and keep it on a local storage yard. It costs us £30/month and there's a mix of MHs, campers, caravans, 4x4s, and boats parked there. We can squeeze it onto the drive if we need to, but it's a major inconvenience to us and our neighbour when we do.

If you look around there are lots of storage facilities, you should find one reasonably close.

On the road outside the house. Winter storage was £400 approx so we decided not to do that.

7m motorcaravan.
After initially keeping it on the driveway (we are lucky that our driveway is long and double width so the 'van doesn't hamper normal operations with the other cars and we have a dedicated AC supply to keep it powered up) we decided to put it in secure storage, this was £45/month and only 1-mile from the house so I could just walk down there whenever I wanted to.
Went well for a few years but the first lockdown was a problem as the site was locked up and I couldn't get access to the 'van, I knew it would start ok (fitted with a large solar panel) but I had suffered rodent damage to the fuel-lines the previous year and like to keep an eye on it.
Not being to get access to the 'van was the last straw so as soon as I could I cancelled the contract and brought it home (which was always my preferred solution anyway).

Sold the van and have just moved home. New driveway is long enough for a new 'van plus car (one of the cars will be going) but this time is only single width. In some ways this is not as good but is a minor problem and we can live with this.
