Caravan enthusiasts were once a particular demographic, but this has changed in recent years and today there is no typical caravanner. Caravans have become boutique hotels on wheels and a symbol of adventure, freedom, and outside living, and this type of holiday has grown in popularity, especially since the Covid pandemic made travelling so troublesome.

In the UK there are over 550,000 caravans on the road and this number has recently increased to include many owners who have never stayed in a home on wheels before. There are also many more types of caravan available, from the incredibly tiny and stylish ‘pods’ (basically a bed on wheels) to large but compact luxury cruisers. This book holds everything a caravanner needs to know, from the complete beginner to the fully experienced old hand, and covers all the most vital information, advice, and how-to instructions anyone needs for embarking on their own exciting journey.
