Families choose caravan holiday home ownership for many reasons, but for everyone it's a getaway retreat for weekends, short breaks and holidays to be used as often as desired.

After caravans made history centuries ago, became associated with the hippy lifestyle. Nowadays the caravan is having a surprising recovery. Knights used caravans in Crusades and the people who afforded to have one used it as tool for moving around. The conquest of Wild West is probably the one who made the caravans famous. What would it have been like to cross the Rocky Mountains without the covered wagons? The alternative was a cold draughty ride on a horse or tramping along in the mud.

Only a hundred years ago you could see brightly painted horse-pulled Romany caravans on our roads. But what about now, when you have roads and maps and so many means of getting where you want? What would be now the role of caravans?

You can find the answer in the need of freedom people are still having. In the last century motor-car ownership took off but the same thing happened to caravans and soon drivers found themselves queuing behind lines of caravans on the way to the coast. For decades the typical image of motor-caravanners was probably that of a hippy family in an old VW.

Owning a luxury caravan in a safe and secure environment with plenty going on can play a considerable part in family life, allowing you and your family to make the most of your leisure time. And, as you would expect from the UK’s largest holiday company, we like to make that experience even better by providing a fantastic array of facilities complemented by first class service.

Nowadays the image of caravans is so much improved and in many cases a caravan has become a luxury home-from-home with a price to match. By the time more and more people that had money to spend became interested in having their own home from home that could give them the freedom to travel all over the place in good condition, the static caravan took off. These uncool and static caravans located by the sea or by the wild forests are now history.

Lately caravanning became one of the country's most popular holidays. Celebrities enjoy this way of travelling or more accurate this way of living. Actresses like Helen Mirren and Tracy Shaw, singers like Mark Owen, Chris Evans and even Sir Jimmy Saville are owners and satisfied users of caravans. And now we can talk about fancy, luxury and styled caravans.
