Caravan holidays are becoming increasingly popular in recent years due to many reasons. Once thought of as having a limited appeal, caravan holidays these days are more luxuriant and well catered to suit a family holiday.

There are many reasons to opt for a caravan holiday:

*Reduced costs

Money is an important factor to weigh in on family trips. People tend to look closely at their spending habits - weekend breaks and holidays involve a considerable amount of expense, so it makes sense to choose an option which saves money with travelling and accommodation. Any savings that can be made in these two areas will obviously help, and having a caravan holiday saves money in both cases! Instead of spending money on hiring cars, train tickets or plane tickets, you can just hit the road with your caravan. You can enjoy the flexibility of knowing that you have good quality accommodation with you at all times, and save tremendously on hotels and bed and breakfast joints.

*Improved caravans

Another reason for the increasing popularity of caravan park holidays is the fantastic improvement in the caravans themselves. Forget the small caravans you sometimes still see being towed along the motorway. Modern caravans have gone upmarket in both size and design – they have adapted from very basic accommodation on wheels to luxurious settings that are associated with hotels and homes. These include a TV set, DVD player, toaster and kettle. Some caravans of today boast fully fitted kitchens with ovens, hobs, fridges, freezers and surprisingly good storage space. Modern caravans also have their own showers and toilet facilities, and have double glazing, heavy insulation and hot blown air systems to keep you warm at night.

*Sense of freedom

Caravan holidays are much more than a cheap option – they are all about having a sense of freedom. With a caravan, you are free to explore a much wider range of locations. There is also room for flexibility. Unlike staying in a luxury hotel, you are not fixed in one location for the entirety of your stay. You can create a more flexible holiday, moving from place to place with a real opportunity to discover new regions and areas. As a result, a caravan trip combines comfort with flexibility and freedom.
