VW Campervan roadtrip to the Isle of Arran

It is fair to say that our 2 week Scottish adventure didn’t really get off the the best of starts or the best of weather. We had been lulled into a false sense of security by the great week of weather towards the end of March- we had iddilic images of barefoot walks on the beach in shorts and T-shirts. Without giving too much away, the shorts remained in the cupboard, the walking shoes and boots were well worn and merino base-layers were the order of most days and nights!

A long weekend adventure in the Lake District.

A national holiday is a great chance to plan a long weekend trip away, but how do you manage an amazing getaway when the rest of the country has the same idea? We look at how it is possible to avoid the crowds, avoid the traffic and truly get away from it all for a few days in May.

9 of the best week long campervan getaways in the UK

In 2017 when we first decided to take the plunge and invest in our VW Campervan Nelson, little did we know how much it would change our lives. 4 years later and over 400 nights away, we look at some of the places Nelson has taken us and how it is possible to get the very most out of your Campervan and at the same time, not breaking the budget.

Top tips for weekend campervan getaways in the UK

Buying a campervan is a significant investment, and one you want to take full advantage of. One of the best ways to get the most out of your campervan is to get out and about at weekends as much as possible. Two day breaks are a wonderful way to combat the stress of working life.

Our VW campervan trip to the Isle of Mull

Join us as we head north to the beautiful Isle of Mull on an impromptu road trip. All we planned were the ferry crossings, the rest was an rollercoaster trip of hiking, wild swimming and storm dodging.

A summer staycation in the Yorkshire Dales

For a variety of reasons, the summer of 2021 was to be a summer of staying close to home and rediscovering the places on our doorstep, only this time in the luxury of our VW T6 Campervan Nelson, rather than under the tent canvas of our youth.
