Planning a Luxury Motorhome Adventure.

I know I am not alone in being excited about the relaxation of the lockdown rules and I am sure that I am also not alone in making grand plans during the darker days about where I would love to travel to and how when the pandemic panic is a distant memory.

First priority is to head back to my beloved Cyprus to give my mum and my friends there a big hug before enjoying a swim in the ocean and a cocktail on the beach.

But with my actual boundaries restricted, my imagination has taken me to a variety of destinations and I dream of travelling  in the UK and abroad ticking experiences off the bucket list I have created in the last few months.

I was due to revisit Cheddar in Somerset, England before COVID-19 started wreaking havoc across the globe. I have spent many happy family times there and was looking forward to taking my younger children along to stay at the YHA accommodation there. I am hopeful the trip can be rearranged once the caves and other attractions reopen.

I'd love to stay in a luxury spa hotel and be pampered after months of cooking for and cleaning up after a houseful of children, some of them adult, who have been locked down with us thanks to university and work closures.

The idea of being able to wander into a spotless en suite to prepare for a dinner I don't have to cook without a child yelling "Mum! Where are you?" sounds like heaven on earth.

Having said that the pandemic has made me slightly paranoid and control-freaky about cleanliness and I wonder if a break where I am responsible for catering and cleaning might actually be more relaxing until coronavirus is more controlled.

My friend suggested a canal boat holiday which sounds quite fun but I think I'd really like to take a trip in a motorhome.  Lots of people travel across America, New Zealand and Australia in motorhomes but I fancy exploring the UK coastline and maybe mainland Europe when the returning quarantine rules are relaxed.

If you are looking for outstanding customer service and brand new luxury models suitable for 2-6 people you should check out award-winning Freedhome Motorhomes who even offer some pet-friendly options.

Freedhome is the north's largest motorhome hire company and with every booking all inclusive you don't need to worry about packing kitchen utensils. There are even complimentary toiletries in the bathrooms and the hire fee includes use of bike racks, hi-def TV/DVD with USB and HDMI ports, a gas bottle, sat nav and Caravan and Camping Club Privilege membership.

Having stayed at Caravan and Camping Club sites I know they can offer something for any taste from busy parks with kid-friendly facilities to almost wild camping where New Forest ponies wander between the informal pitches.

I also quite fancy a motorhome experience at a festival - we love camping but actually the luxury of returning to a motorhome with a comfy bed after a long day singing and dancing sounds very appealing.

Ohhhh just writing about travelling makes me desperate to book an adventure. I think Brits are soon going to be thinking about staycations so if you are keen to get in before everything gets booked I would start making plans now.
