Some people look forward to spending a whole week at luxurious resort or hotel where they will be treated like royalty. Others look forward to their caravan holidays.

It is not only about the destination. It is about the journey. The moment that you set off to the horizon is when the fun begins. There will be one assigned driver or maybe more. Hopefully more than one so that he or she doesn’t get to miss all the fun on board. There is plenty to do, from playing cards to napping, watching TV, reading, taking in the sights, eating, etc. What other activities can be done in a moving caravan? Well, whichever they are, people who travel by plane doesn’t get to enjoy them.

Travelling inside of your portable hotel room gives you a lot of room to improvise. What if you fall in love with a place you happen to be driving by while on your way to your destination? The answer is as clear as water; you hit the brakes and stop to enjoy its charm and beauty.

Having mentioned some of the benefits of the journey, the destination itself also has some positive factors over a hotel room in the centre of some city; it gives you a sense of belonging. It is true that if you want to visit a big city, a caravan might not be the most convenient mode of transport. But if you are looking for a time of relaxation, to sit back and enjoy life with friends and family, a caravan might be among the top three choices.

Of course not everybody who chooses to have caravan holidays owns a caravan, no. You can rent a holiday caravan. Most of the caravan parks are situated either near the coast or near a theme park. Or just in the middle of nature with plenty of trees and lakes around it for water activities. In any case, they are attractive locations with plenty of entertainment suggestions.

Many people go to the same caravan park year after year. They meet their friends there and spend their holidays catching up, having lunch and dinner together. It is a strong bond that is created by sharing good times. Even though for most people their holidays are a limited period time a year, they choose to spend them with those friends they have come to know over the years. It is a real sense of belonging. So in a way, this type of holidays gives you freedom but also commitment at the same time.

If we talk about people whose preferred choice wouldn’t normally be a caravan park, having kids might be a deal breaker when it comes to choosing their holiday plan. In a lot of cases caravan parks are the best option for a family with young children. What do you do with two children under five? Although your first choice of destination would be Paris, New York or Miami, a caravan park might be the best and most fun holiday destination for the family as a whole. After all, time flies and memories are the only thing we are left with.
