Caravanners planning Christmas getaways are being advised to check weather updates in their chosen location before travelling.
The Camping and Caravanning Club is recommending that holidaymakers who have made bookings for the festive period check with their site directly to make sure they can still be accommodated.
Freezing conditions have affected the whole of the UK in recent weeks, with heavy snow hitting many parts of the country.
Since some areas have suffered more than others, it is worth calling ahead to check that conditions are safe on site and that bookings can still be honoured.
The Camping and Caravanning Club said it will be posting any information it receives regarding weather conditions at its campsites on its Siteseeker website, so caravanners should keep an eye on the updates.
Motoring groups are also advising drivers to check weather forecasts and traffic alerts before setting out on long journeys, and to carry warm clothing, blankets, torches, food and other emergency items in their vehicles.
