THE CAMPERVAN GUIDEBOOKCAMPERVAN LIFE / EXPLORE

Campervan life is as much about community, useful ideas and time spent outdoors as it is about the van itself.

Find inspiration for rallies, shows, festivals and informal get-togethers. Event guides will include official dates and booking information when verified.

Stories from the road

Real campervan owners, creative conversions and experiences from across the UK and beyond.

Everyday campervan living

Practical ideas for travelling comfortably, planning food, handling changing weather and making the most of smaller spaces.

Make more of the moments in between

Campervan living is often at its best when the plan is simple. A good place to sit, a warm drink after a long walk and the freedom to change direction can matter more than a long list of attractions. Thoughtful packing and a little routine also make a small living space feel surprisingly comfortable.

  • Keep the van usable: avoid filling every available cupboard. Give regularly used items a proper place.
  • Think about the weather: pack layers, drying space and sensible shelter rather than relying on a perfect forecast.
  • Leave places as you find them: respect local rules, neighbouring campers and sensitive landscapes.
  • Enjoy the wider community: events, shows and local gatherings can be a useful source of ideas and inspiration.
