Caravan holidays provide ideal tonic for tough times



Spring and summer may still seem like a long way off, but for many Brits thoughts are already turning towards planning a holiday in the sun.

This year however those thoughts will be clouded somewhat by fears over the fate of the economy and even their future income as government cuts continue to bite.

As a result, many will be looking to a less costly alternative to a holiday overseas and this may prove to be something of a blessing in disguise as there are plenty of delights to discover much closer to home.

One fantastic alternative to foreign trips can be caravan holidays, which have enjoyed something of a renaissance in recent years. In fact now may be the ideal time to invest in a caravan, which offers unrivalled flexibility when it comes to choosing what to do with your well-earned time off.

Of course, in addition to you initial investment you will have to pay some additional expenses such as caravan insurance but these, and also site fees while you are on your travels, are a fraction of the cost of the annual pilgrimage to the travel agents.
