Caravanners looking for a budget for money destination in the UK may be surprised to hear that London has been named among the top ten best-value places to go in the world.
According to Lonely Planet, the recession has caused the capital to become more affordable, especially for foreign visitors.
UKinbound chief executive Mary Rance explained the exchange rate between the pound and other currencies has made the city a great choice for those from abroad.
She said that London had a real chance to benefit from the downturn by attracting more tourists.
“With investment from government in overseas marketing to raise awareness of the fantastic value currently on offer in Britain, we could ensure that this opportunity is not missed and that 2010 is a bumper year for inbound travel,” Ms Rance suggested.
Meanwhile, the Caravan Club responded to the Lonely Planet list by saying that its 18 sites in the south-east of England could make excellent bases for a trip to the capital.
