| Caravans
have come a long way since the old 1970's swift two-berth
and can now encompass every luxury you could imagine. They
can be a home away from home and do not have the constrictions
of staying in a hotel.
There are basically two different types of
caravans, static and touring. Both offer a certain amount
of freedom and flexibility, but also have a number of differences
which may mean one will appeal to you more than the other.
A touring caravan is an independent home on
wheels that can be attached to your vehicle with a tow bar
and taken to your holiday destination. They can be rather
basic but comfortable two-berth caravans that can be easily
towed with an average family car.
Alternatively some touring caravans can sleep
six people in luxury and may need to be towed by a large four
by four vehicle. There are endless sizes and specifications
that you can choose from for your touring caravan.
The interior of a basic touring caravan will
comprise of seating, which will be sleeping quarters at night.
A kitchen area of some description and a bathroom area where
you can wash, and possibly a lavatory, though not necessarily.
At the top end of the market a touring caravan
can be something really special and unique. The new Cameo
by Bessacarr has some remarkable extras. As well as a unique
and high-tech exterior, it offers a choice of luxury interiors
including cream leather, a cocktail cabinet, a thermostatically
controlled oven, a sealed shower cubicle and a toilet with
an electric flush.
With a touring caravan you can go on holiday
whenever you choose to wherever you choose at a moments notice.
Best of all, if you do not like where you have chosen, you
can pack up and go somewhere else.
A static caravan by definition stays in one
place. Therefore you do not have to store your caravan when
not in use. Nor do you have the responsibility of towing it
from one place to another.
A static caravan can be purchased from a holiday
park and is then yours to do with as you please. You can choose
to own a static caravan at your favorite location by the sea,
in the country, a quiet retreat or an entertainment packed
resort. You can then holiday whenever you like or let friends
and family stay when it is vacant.
Static caravans can also be outfitted with
an array of modern conveniences - double glazing, washing
machines and top furnishings.
