The south-east of England has been hailed as an ideal spot for caravanning holidays by the area’s tourism body.

Fran Downton, marketing and communications manager at Tourism South East, said many of the best caravanning and touring sites are located in the region.

She insisted that the area boasts some “stunning scenery” and offers a wide range of activities, including guided walks and biking tours.

“From stunning countryside to outstanding coastlines, the south-east is one of the richest parts of the country for a day out, short break or holiday,” she remarked.

“Discover the south’s ancient past, explore the region’s literary connections or get the blood pumping with an activity based pursuit.”

Some of the south-east’s biggest family tourist attractions include Legoland in Berkshire, Chessington World of Adventures in Surrey and Howletts Wild Animal Park in Kent.

There are also numerous cultural attractions, such as Windsor Castle, Canterbury Cathedral, Blenheim Palace and Portsmouth Historic Dockyard.
