A brother and sister have founded two new caravan sites for Brits to enjoy after seeing the pleasure their parents derived from their new mobile home.
Ian and Wendy Todd bought a motorhome as a 40th anniversary present to themselves and their delight in the camper led son James Todd and daughter Sarah Lyon to take the step.
Both own land and decided to use it to create small campsites with help from the Camping and Caravanning Club.
Ms Lyon explained that she believed she could offer campers more than other sites she had visited by using a two-acre field to provide pitches.
She explained that the Greets Farm site has plenty of room and is just a mile from the “pretty village” of Welburn.
“My brother’s site, Mount Pleasant Farm, is a working farm, and offers pedestrian and cycle access to Dalby Forest,” she added.
Both facilities have been awarded Certified Site status, which is given to camp grounds with space for up to five caravans and additional tent pitches.
Brits may be encouraged to avoid the hassle of flying caused by last week’s volcanic eruption and opt for a short break at a campsite instead.
