 Camping and caravanning was popular way before celebrities turned it into glamping. Its simplicity and freedom not only made it affordable but also improved its appeal especially for those nature lovers with a love for the open road. What was once frowned upon as a poor man’s holiday has certainly crossed financial boundaries, with over 18 million British people choosing camping or caravanning as their preferred style of vacation every year.

There certainly isn’t a shortage of styles to suit every budget and every taste, from the humble pitch up tent to glamorous caravans that more than substitute for the luxury of many a hotel experience. Check out Planet Camping for a caravan to make the trip all the more memorable.
