The Scottish Caravan, Motorhome & Holiday Home Show, which is once again sponsored by Scotland's leading motorhome dealer BC Motorhomes, is taking over the entire SEC, Glasgow for another year to welcome over 200 exhibitors and outdoor experts across the four-day period. For Scotland’s outdoor enthusiasts there really is nowhere better to be!

With latest figures from the Caravan and Motorhome Club showing that each year the Scottish economy sees a significant boost from Caravan and Motorhome Club members who spend around £40m off-site when holidaying in the region, holidaying at home really does have some fantastic advantages.

This year the much loved exhibition is bigger than ever with an even bigger family camping area, more accessories and hundreds of models, layouts and specifications all in one place. The perfect setting for everyone from avid outdoor fans to those who want to find out a bit more about holidaying at home.

Jamie Taylor, Group Show Director QD Events, said: “With more people than ever before choosing holidaying at home over travelling abroad, the show is the ideal place for visitors to learn about the new adventures on offer on their doorstep, and further afield in Scotland and the UK.

“With record visitors to the show last year we anticipate even more visitors this year. There truly is something for everyone, from those who already have an interest in the outdoors, to first timers.

“The Scottish Caravan, Motorhome & Holiday Home Show is a must-stop destination for all outdoor lovers and we are delighted that BC Motorhomes are joining us as sponsors again this year. With so many exhibitors, exclusive visitor only deals and expert advice all in one place it shouldn’t be missed.”

Nick Lomas, Director General of the Caravan and Motorhome Club said: “Scotland has some of the most breath-taking scenery in the world, it’s no wonder it provides the backdrop to so many iconic films. Scotland is the ideal location for anyone who wants to experience adventures in the great outdoors and also enjoy City culture.”

Visitors to the show will be able to have first sightings of the brand new models for 2018 as well as a variety of holiday homes from luxury lodges to eco pods. With brands including Airstream, Swift, Elddis, Lunar, Bailey, Roller Team and Rapido there is guaranteed to be something to suit all needs and budgets.

In addition to this the show will see a big milestone reached within the industry with the launch of the first ever, commercially available, fully electric campervan from Caledonian Campers & Conversions Ltd.

Back by popular demand, visitors will also be able to purchase the ‘must have’ tents and accessories for their outdoor adventures at the Accessory Superstore. On show will be marine products including jet skis and dinghies, as well as other marine accessories.

If that wasn’t enough, visitors will be able to wander through the Holiday Park Village where staff will be on hand to provide advice and offer suggestions to make sure their caravanning experience is the best it can be.

In addition, a number of clubs, associations and holiday parks will be there to help you pick out your next destination whilst free caravan towing or motorcaravan manoeuvring sessions are on offer from the Caravan & Motorhome Club.
