The motorhome rental business has done fantastic in 2010 and 2011 looks to be another bumper year. The web site traffic on this site is up 37% on last year and people are getting busy now, booking their summer 2011 motorhome holidays.
One of the many beauties of motorhome travel is that you can stop when you like. However, it’s worth noting that some camping sites are only open during high season. Although a lot of campsites accommodate tents, caravans and motorhomes, some may insist on advance booking for larger vehicles that need big pitches. Availability may also depend on season. But of course with a motorhome you also have the option to wild camp.
So why is this? Well quite frankly it just isn’t good value any more to book up a cheap package holiday to Spain or France anymore. Although it is much better than it was 2 years ago, the UK Pound is still weak and the Euro is strong so UK tour operators have had to raise their prices so they can pay their European bills and this increase has of course being passed onto customers.
The strong Euro is not affecting your motorhome rental holiday as the company is UK based. So if you want to go to France or Spain you can. If by the time the summer is here the pound is strong again – good for you! If not, consider touring the UK where your currency is good.
Consider this: If you are trying to plan your holiday now, then you may not be sure how your finances will be in the summer. With a motorhome rental holiday this won’t really matter, you can customize your holiday according to your finances.
All in all motorhome holidays are going to make more sense in 2011 than ever before, and that is something we are happy about.
