Why Are Caravan Park Holidays So Popular?

By Craig Ellyard

If you ever spent a holiday in a caravan park as a child and have not spent time in one since, you will be in for a pleasant surprise. Forget the basic facilities of the typical caravan park from decades past. The modern day park offers a fabulous caravan holiday with top class amenities, and a whole range of luxury caravans in which to spend your holiday. There is always plenty to entertain you on the site, or you can use the park as a base to visit the beautiful local countryside or seaside resorts.

For many people spending a holiday in a caravan beats staying in a bed and breakfast, and allows more freedom than staying in a hotel. It can be the ultimate in self catering holidays with the caravans of today boasting fully fitted kitchens, and - in a far cry from the shower blocks of old - their own showers. And, if you can't tear yourself away from your computer, then don't worry! Many modern day caravan parks provide wifi, meaning you can take your laptop and surf to your heart's content - when you're not sunbathing on the beach or out site seeing. What more could a holidaymaker want?

One reason for the increasing popularity of caravan park holidays is the fantastic improvement in the caravans themselves. Forget the small caravans you sometimes still see being towed along the motorway. Modern caravans have gone upmarket in both size and design. They can be up to sixty feet long - and more - allowing them to be packed with the kind of luxuries that families have now come to expect while on holiday.

Then there are the facilities themselves for the holiday maker in the caravan park. Bars and cafés are becoming, along with top class entertainment, the norm for the parks of today. And the children - who as always are as demanding as ever - are well catered for with paddling pools, play areas and their own on site entertainment.

And should you decide to go further afield you can be assured that the park is close by either to the seaside, or surrounded by beautiful countryside. So take the kids down the beach, to the fair ground, or on a trip to the countryside before coming back to have a meal in your luxury caravan, or one of the park's excellent eateries.

So with such excellent caravans and facilities available, along with a whole host of activities to do, it is easy to see why caravan park holidays are becoming so popular!
