People unaware of caravan advances, it is claimed

Posted by Freddy Morton


Advances in convenience such as Comet caravan taps and Thetford caravan refrigeration could entice more people into caravanning if they were more widely publicised, according to Salop Leisure.


Marketing manager Scott Higgins said many people were not aware of the advances in comfort and technology which have been made in the caravan and motorhome industry.


"The main reason why we attend so many shows is to give people an opportunity to see the latest caravan and motorhome models and hopefully attract new customers," he added.


Mr Higgins added that the middle of England and Wales offered better value for money than many parks in Europe.


Salop Leisure has sales centres in Shrewsbury, Machynlleth and Stourport. It was recently named caravan dealer of the year and hopes to take advantage of increased interest in British holidays to increase its sales.


Freelance travel writer Linsey McNeill recently mooted Cornwall as a potential destination for British holidaymakers planning a staycation over Easter.
