WINNER TRAVEL GUIDE BOOK OF THE YEAR

BY

BRITISH GUILD OF TRAVEL WRITERS

It's time to take to the road with this selection of stunning handpicked trips throughout England, Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and Jersey (Channel Islands). The trips are suitable for campervanners, motorcaravanners, long-distance cyclists, EV cars, basically anyone on a set of wheels, especially those that like to go camping (although details of finding alternative accommodation are also included).

Whether you're a novice motorcaravanner or experienced road tripper, solo adventurer or family group, these self-guided tours will provide the inspiration to set out and explore - as slowly and leisurely as you like - the UK. There are routes of all distances, from day/weekend trips of no more than 30 or 40 miles to routes of 1,000 miles and more for those enjoying a longer holiday.

Collectively these routes explore the very best scenery that the UK has to offer - from coastal views and mountains, forests and national parks, UNESCO World Heritage Sites, vineyards, lakesides and riverbanks, islands (including parking up and visiting car-free islands), to pastoral idylls, wilderness and vibrant cities brimming with architectural heritage.

No end of adventures await! Travel the coast of Cornwall in search of excellent food and drink, or go walking in Herefordshire. Explore the North York Moors, or visit the vineyards of Kent and Sussex, or cross the Pennines in search of industrial heritage.

Packed with practical advice, tempting photographs and inspirational itineraries, Camping Road Trips: UK is the essential handbook to your camping adventure.

For more than 20 years these UK camping road trips have been explored either as a lone female or companioned by three young children. Activities and slow travel adventure on foot and by bike are as much a part of the trip as driving. I aim to inspire all, whether a lone female traveller, young families, single parents or couples of any age that anything is doable.
