Martello Sunshine mug

Similar to our blue 1980s design - this design featured on badges that were given to kids in the 70s. There was a sticker on the back of the badge, that your caravan number was written on, in case you got lost!

This high quality mug features a design from our Martello range. 

Originating as the Southcliffe Trailer Camp, The Martello Caravan Park was established by Douglas Garton, a Colchester based transport contractor, along with Florence Garton and Kate Norfolk.

The Gartons' son Robin, later provided the entertainment at the Martello with his band.  Robin also ran a Martello Studios from the basement of the Martello tower on-site, producing jingles, advertisements, recordings, even recording his own band's singles on the Big T / Martello label.

Many other entertainers would appear over the course of the years at the Martello as well as Robin's much loved dance band; the Benny Harris Set, Bryan and Charlie, and later Bryan and Tom (after Charlie sadly passed away).

Mug is microwave and dishwasher safe.
