The British Boom in Campervan Holidays

January 8, 2018 6:05 pm Filed to: Cars by Jerry

For many decades, the tiny island we know as Great Britain managed to avoid campervan holidays, being a small landmass with great infrastructure, and the lack of vast expanses negated the need for a holiday on wheels. When you look at countries like Australia and USA, it is clear they have a long relationship with motorhomes and taking self-driving holidays, and recent developments in vehicle design and devices, holidaying in a modern campervan is extremely comfortable.

UK Holidays

Higher accommodation costs and expensive restaurants has resulted in more and more UK families opting for the campervan lifestyle, and with the open road ahead, there is an unmistakable hint of adventure in the air, and with complete freedom over where you go and how long you stay, you really can’t go wrong! If you take away the accommodation, your budget for your holiday increases dramatically, and for many people, hitching up to their camping trailer is a cost effective way to enjoy a self-driving holiday.

Camper Trailers

These are designed to accommodate everything you need, with the main structure turning into a large tent, and this type of trailer can be towed by a BMW or Audi, all you need to do is buy a towbar online, and you are ready to go. The trailers themselves come in many shapes and sizes, and your choice should depend on your intended use. Extreme weather conditions call for expensive equipment, and if it’s for weekend fishing, then a suitable design is out there, and with some online research, you should be able to source an ideal trailer, which you simply hook up to the car whenever you want to escape the daily grind of modern city life.

Camping Amenities

Due to the steady rise in popularity of self-driving holidays, all regions of the UK offer great camping amenities, making it super convenient and affordable. The cost of a 2-week family holiday in the dramatic peaks of the Highlands, or perhaps a serene weekend amongst the rolling hills of Shropshire, is very affordable and allows for extended trips; and with shower and toilet facilities at hand, and retail outlets for essentials, a campervan holiday is very appealing.

The Adventure Factor

Perhaps this is the main ingredient, as it is the only holiday experience with no schedule, leaving you in complete control over where the experience might leave. If you’ve always wanted to go surfing on the stunning Pembrokeshire coast, simply drive in the right direction and you can. Similarly, if you dream of flying a Spitfire over the green fields of Devon, Spitfires has a list of flight options for you to choose from at your convenience for when you arrive in your camper. You might just like the idea of packing everything up and simply driving in one general direction and seeing what happens. Or if you prefer to research the potential regions and find something suitable, a camping holiday is the ideal way to spend quality downtime with your family.

Preparing your car for such an experience might involve upgrading the shocks, and with an online supplier of tow bars, you simply order one that is made for your model, and once fitted, you can go and collect your new camping trailer and join the thousands of other families that prefer experiencing the wonders of Great Britain by camping.
