Advice on choosing a campsite

Choosing the perfect place to stay in a campervan may seem tricky, but it doesn’t have to be if you know where to look. Firstly, consider the sort of campsite you are looking for, whether it be a holiday park with plenty of facilities or something quieter and off the beaten path. 

Also, always be aware of the campsite’s guidelines. For example, small and remote campsites maybe stricter about noise, whereas larger holiday parks may sometimes be noisier at night due to the entertainment they might offer. It all depends on your personal preferences and the type of campervanning adventure you are planning to have!

If you want to have the best camping experience, it is important to always do your research when choosing your ideal campsite. It is important to read reviews and check out the campsite’s website. Here are just a few things to consider:

Always make sure to check the campsites arrival and departure times

Are you close to the area you are planning to explore?

What facilities does the campsite offer?

If you are planning on lighting a BBQ or toasting marshmallows, will the campsite allow this?
