Once upon a time with a Campervan or small motorhome you could travel far and wide in the UK and Europe and besides camping in paid campsites there were many places you could stop overnight and also use the vehicle for sightseeing etc.
But now, particularly since Covid, society seems to be turning against this community if they step outside paid for campsites.
Many areas are introducing restrictions on parking overnight or even sightseeing parking ( no camping involved ) if you have a campervan so the freedom or spontaneous element is being increasingly curtailed.
In fact a car and caravan can give you more sightseeing choices in some areas than a campervan due to parking restrictions.
I know a few people, a loy younger than us who have crossed over to a car and caravan so that they can travel to an area and go out each day sightseeing etc without worrying if they can park here or there with a campervan.
Any thoughts?
