The Top 5 Reasons to Choose a Campervan Holiday

Whatever trip you are dreaming of, whether it is by the ocean, in the mountains, or the countryside, a campervan is the perfect means of transport for a convivial, unique, and budget-friendly holiday. With the family or a loved one, a campervan guarantees freedom, independence, and flexibility, and there are a host of reasons why it could be the perfect solution for you. We list 5 of them in our article. Take notes! 

1. Freedom and flexibility

Having no timetable or schedule to follow is a wonderful feeling! The saying that the journey is just as important as the destination is what a campervan trip is all about. Exploring (almost) any place you want, marvelling at the breathtaking views along the way, stopping off wherever you fancy, and continuing on your journey whenever you please - this is the freedom and adaptability we all yearn for in our daily lives, and it is something we are happy to make the most of on a campervan holiday. 

2. Comfort and autonomy

Travelling by campervan is a little like carrying your home on your back like a snail! Unlike holidays under canvas, there is no need to constantly pack and unpack, as everything you need is within easy reach. You don’t have to worry about searching for a restaurant for a meal or a campsite with a PREMIUM pitch so you can take a shower… because you have your very own kitchen and bathroom whenever you need them. And we all know that such comfort is invaluable for those who don’t want to choose between a feeling of being at home and the spirit of freedom! 

3. Explore nature at your own pace

Probably one of the best reasons to consider a campervan trip is the opportunity to fully immerse yourself in the beauty of nature! Free to decide where you spend the night (within designated camping areas of course!), you can choose a peaceful spot far from the hustle and bustle to reconnect with the natural world and recharge your batteries by being in contact with it. There are countless stunning nature destinations to explore throughout France and Europe! From Brittany to the Massif Central, and from the Atlantic coast to the Mediterranean basin, discover all the beauty and diversity of our magnificent planet from camping pitches. What could be better than having nature as your own personal backyard and playground during your holiday? 

4. Value for money

Travelling as a family can lead to unexpectedly high expenses, but, compared to other tourist accommodation, opting for a campervan over a traditional hotel, for example, can ensure you the very best value for money. You won’t have to pay for air or rail fares and you can cook your meals on-site, which means that dining out can be more of an occasional treat... but something worth doing now and then (that’s what holidays are for!). And you don't have to worry if you don't own a campervan because it is easy to rent one! Many websites, such as Wikicampers, offer campervan rentals. That way, you keep your regular expenses to a minimum which means there is more of a budget for leisure activities, much to the enjoyment of your family!  

5. A memorable family experience!

It may seem obvious, but a family campervan holiday promises to be a one-of-a-kind experience! It's an opportunity to explore, laugh, and marvel together, creating cherished memories for young and old that will last a lifetime.
