An avid caravan holiday fan and campervan driver has completed an impressive tour of some of the UK’s finest campsites, clocking up over 5,000 miles in the process.

Rachel Kershaw embarked on her intrepid 70-day road trip as part of VisitEngland’s Fan in a Van campaign, designed to highlight some of the UK’s finest tourist spots.

Setting off from Cornwall’s Land’s End in her trusty campervan ‘Rosie’ back in May, Rachel took in an impressive 48 Camping and Caravanning Club Sites spread across the Great British Isles on her travels before finishing up in East London on July 27th.

During that time she took in a variety of attractive coastal resorts, unrivalled heritage sites, wonderful rolling hills and the impressive city lights located up and down the land.

In addition to this, Rachel enjoyed a range of delightfully English dishes and visited a number of nature spots and animal reserves.

“I’ve always loved England, but it’s got so much more to offer than I realised before embarking on this trip,” she said.

“I’ve travelled from north to south, east to west and have been welcomed warmly all along the way.”

With so much to enjoy across the UK, her message is simple – get out there and enjoy it!
