Tragedy has struck at a Scottish caravan site where two people were found dead inside a mobile home.
Fire safety is always an issue to be aware of when staying in a caravan and this latest news should highlight that fact.
A man and a woman were discovered dead inside a static caravan in Gartocharn’s Lagganbeg Caravan Park.
Fire crews had been called to deal with the blaze at around 06:15 GMT and, despite having it under control less than an hour later, were unable to save the victims.
The pair are believed to have been a 65-year-old man and a 59-year-old woman and while police have yet to name them, it does not appear that there were any suspicious circumstances.
Due to the flammable nature of caravans, it is vital to ensure that the proper safety precautions are taken, including having a fire alarm fitted and an extinguisher within easy reach.
Caravanners should also be particularly vigilant when smoking, cooking or using the heating in their mobile homes.
