Top Campervan Destinations In The Uk

If you own a campervan and aren't sure where to travel in it this year, the following can provide some inspiration.

2020 has been full of ups and downs, but perhaps with more downs on people’s holiday plans due to the outbreak of the pandemic. And so not to anyone’s surprise, breaks and holidays away in the UK have become the most popular choice. This year there’s been a particularly high interest in camping with bespoke van conversions, as it’s a smarter way to travel and live as it ultimately means less chance for coming into contact with other people. Social distancing becomes much easier when people can make use of campervan conversions rather than a hotel stay. If you already have the pleasure of owning a VW transporter conversion, we’ve covered some of the top destinations to take your moving home for your holidays this year.

If you truly want to be at one with nature and stay somewhere that feels set apart, Cumbria is an ideal choice. There are plenty of campsites to choose from and are suitable for bespoke van conversions. Whether you intend on visiting as a family in your camper or just as a couple, getting away to the Lake District is a real treat and one that’s definitely needed after the stresses of this year! So, if you’re in need of some real escapism this year, keep Cumbria on your list of places to go as it’s affordable, has many walks and has plenty of lovely sights for anyone seeking nature this year.

Scotland is very famous for its spectacular views and roads to drive along, which makes it perfect for owners of campervan conversions to travel to. The famous Argyll Coastal Route is just one of many amazing roads to drive on in VW transporter conversions, with many areas to stop at along the route- so there’s no need to book a campsite at every point. However, there are also many camping sites available, suitable for whole families or groups of friends. It’s a little easier to follow government guidelines when it comes to travelling solo in Scotland, which is why it should definitely be an option as a holiday for bespoke van conversions this year.

Again, for those who are wanting to witness some untouched nature this year on holiday, Pembrokeshire should be on your list of places to go! In particular, the Cilrath Wood Camping destination is ideal as it’s very isolated. The campsite location is classed as ‘virgin territory’, as it’s centred around an 18th century farmhouse with surrounding hay meadows. So, a bit like Scotland, if you want complete remoteness for a campervan conversion visit, this is a great choice. Also, if you don’t fancy sitting in one place on your trip away, you can find woodlands nearby which are fantastic to explore.

One thing the UK is great for is it’s massive choice of places to go which are immersed in the natural world, which brings us to Wales. Wales is fantastic for mountainous walks and biking, so if you have a keen interest in getting active away from your VW transporter conversion, consider a trip here. Snowdonia is famous for its height, however, if you’re wanting softer terrain, the Brecon Beacons has great peaks to explore also. The views in Wales are hard to find elsewhere in the UK.

Although 2020 has brought many typical holidays for Brits become more difficult to pursue, there’s still plenty of places to visit closer to home this year. If you have a campervan, it’d be silly not to take advantage of the amazing destinations the UK has to offer. Above only covered some of a plethora of destinations to visit this year, so make sure to have a good look about to plan your holiday away to make the most of your time off.
