A FINE DAY OUT
Last year, during restrictions, Jeff and Mary used their camper as a day van for outings to Leonardslee Gardens, and going to their local Shoreham beach, with their grandchildren. “We parked by the fort on a glorious sunny day, went in the sea, ate in the van and it was brilliant. The toilet was very handy, too.” “We also like going to Seaford with our dog. She is a little Bichon Frise and has her own bed, seatbelt and a bowl hanging up in the campervan.”

DAY TRIPS WITHOUT RESTRICTIONS
Whatever the weather, campervans are perfect for days out and short breaks. Many owners say they use their campervan as a day van – or for short breaks - even more often than for longer holidays. Archaeologist Jenny uses her NV200 CamperCar as her only vehicle. She lives near beautiful Reigate Heath, in Surrey, and uses the camper to visit far-flung friends, or as a day van when she goes on archaeological digs. She says, “I went to Abinger in Surrey to see an archaeological site and cooked bacon sandwiches for all the people on the dig. They’ve come to expect it now. I’ve been out for plenty of picnics too.

Ian and Liz live in Cambridgeshire and collected their campervan in June last year and headed off to the beach for their first excursion. "We cooked up a lovely breakfast overlooking the sea, just beautiful." said Ian. Later in the year they went to Tan Y Rhiw Caravan Park in Llanrwst, North Wales and explored the Cley nature reserve and beach on the North Norfolk Coast, before heading for the bright lights of Cromer.
