With the winter season still in full swing, you may be wondering when the weather will warm and you can hop back into your campervan and get back on the road. The answer? Well, now of course!
People often presume that campervan holidays are only suited to the summer months, and don’t consider opting for a motorhome holiday during the winter. However, as we’re one of the leading providers of campervan hire in Scotland – we’re here to show you the beauty that campervan holidays can offer, all year round!
So, if you’re looking for somewhere to escape to during the remaining chilly-season – visit Scotland. And here are a few reasons why…
It’s full of adventure
Wintertime in Scotland brings new adventure to your getaway. Forget the cold and remember a few cheeky plus points, such as quieter roads for travelling, spectacular winter scenery and a wonderful sense of feeling smug as you sit inside your warm cosy campervan amongst Scotland’s beautiful scenery.
It’s cheaper in the winter
You’ll also find that many motorhome and campervan holidays are cheaper in the winter season, and camp-sites or holiday spots will be much quieter. So, why not take full advantage of the quiet season and enjoy a weekend or week getaway with your nearest and dearest?
Go for a walk
Swap the green and rolling hills of the Scottish mountains during the spring and summertime for breathtaking and wintry landscapes and snow-covered hilltops. There may be mud, ice and rain, too, but getting out and enjoying the elements while dressed for the weather is all part of the fun of winter walking!
Get active
Whether you’re a surfer, mountain-climber, skier or snowboarder – Scotland is sure to have the winter-activities that’ll keep you active, and is a prime-spot for extreme winter-sports! Scotland boasts five ski resorts, and each offer a range of skiing and snowboarding action. Visit Glenshee Ski Centre, by Braemar, CairnGorm Mountain, near Aviemore and Nevis Range, near Fort William for the ultimate snow-sport experience.
Scotland is also a hot-spot for mountain biking, and many prefer to go off-road on a bike rather than risk the wet and icy roads. Scotland is acclaimed as the best country in Europe for mountain biking, and whether you rent our bikes on arrival or strap them to your camper – there are plenty of mountain trails or woodland ways to enjoy!
