With all the stresses of everyday life, it’s important to take a break sometimes – especially when you have kids! Campervan holidays are a great way for families to bond and create magical memories together, exploring new destinations and having fun.
Here’s our top five reasons to go on campervan journeys with your kids…
It’s a learning experience like no other
Not all learning happens in a classroom. Showing your children the great outdoors will not only teach them about nature but also let them experience the diversity of different cultures in towns and cities across the UK (or Europe). A proper camping trip can also teach them important life skills like campsite cooking and orienteering.
The journey is half the fun already!
There’s so much more to see through the windows of a campervan. Road trips with the kids can be great fun and give you the opportunity to spend quality time together, chatting and playing games. Once school’s out, you can just jump in the van and hit the road as a family. Show them the simpler times of fun without Wi-Fi!
You can build a fail-safe holiday plan
Travel costs are astronomical in the school holidays and there’s always the risks of delays and cancellations. Once you already have the van and it’s ready to roll, all you really need to pay for is food and fuel. You can also plan a route, avoiding traffic as much as possible!
Plus, you can’t have a trip ruined by a bit of rain. Snuggling up in the camper with a hot drink and a blanket can’t be beaten! Why not download some movies or bring a few board games for those cosy moments?
It’s not just a vehicle…
As well as holidays, the van can also be a great place for kids to get changed before and after sports. If they’ve been swimming or playing football, make sure your seats are protected from water and mud with a set of our seat covers! If you’ve got pets, why not bring them along? After all – they’re part of the family too.

They don’t stay young long …
Ultimately, campervan holidays are great for making memories, especially when you’ve got young children! Their sense of adventure and curious nature means there will never be a dull moment. After all, they won’t stay kids for long so these are the moments that count.
