The economic downturn has brought about many difficulties now facing the travel industry, and of course the height of summer is the worst possible time for disruption of holidays, bringing on disappointment, but more importantly monies that could be lost.
For many years luxury travel was of essence and has been the primary choices of the British tourist, having said that, things have started to change over the last few years, and camping in the UK has come up as an alternative to vacation hotspots in an extraordinary way.
Camping has now become very popular; furthermore this recreational holiday was not even among the first five choices for families a few years ago, but primary attributes has provided magnificent impetus to the camping practice in the UK, such as inexpensive, easy, the natural ambiance, and to add to this, camping has now become one of the coolest things to do in the UK.
Camping may involve the use of a tent, caravan, motor-home, or cabin, although camping is now reinventing itself is was actually a very popular recreational activity in the early 20th century, and campers used fields, publicly owned natural areas, and privately owned campsites.
Camping is enjoyed with activities such as walking, kayaking, climbing, canoeing, cycling, swimming and fishing, thus with so many activities to enjoy on holiday, of course the great British public started to look for cheaper alternatives without sky-high costs, and many families have ‘kicked into touch’ the package holiday abroad, without compromising on the pleasures that one usually expects when vacationing.
The English countryside is beautiful to say the least, camping in either a tent a caravan or motor-home at a recommended campsite can take your breath away each and every day, add to this the hospitality of the owners can make this type of holiday perfect.
The West Country has and always will be a popular place to spend the annual break with the family, and choosing one of many campsites in Cornwall, or also a campsite Devon can prove to be the best decision you ever make for the perfect place to take the family.
These two counties have much to offer the holidaymaker, and camping in Cornwall the same as camping in Devon, will open your eyes to the beauty of the countryside, also with miles of sandy beaches to enjoy the entire water sports on offer makes it the perfect location.
A spokesman for Wooda Farm Holiday Park Cornwall said “our bookings show that the British holiday maker is moving away from a holiday abroad, and who can blame them with everything on their doorstep to make the perfect holiday for all the family”.
Join the many people that now think the coolest holiday is camping, and have given up on suffering long airport queues, delayed flights, and worse still a cancelled holiday, that is why home is best.
