Also known as the conventional motor home, the Class A motor home resembles a bus in appearance. However, unlike buses, this motor home type is entirely built on a specially designed motor home chassis that is typically bare. Many have considered it as something that is constructed on just the chassis cowl. The Class A motor home is run or powered by diesel or gas engines. It is divided into a number of units; each may feature multiple slide-out sections that open up the living space for the trekkers. What you can generally expect from this type of motor home are kitchens, bathrooms, bedrooms, entertainment centers, electrical system, hot and cold running water, air conditioning and controlled heating. All of the luxuries of a complete home can be found here, the reason that Class A motor homes are known throughout the world as the largest and most luxurious recreational vehicle available. Features of Class A Motor Home The Class A motor home is commonly considered as the perfect vehicle for families seeking for an ultimate mobile trips. For some good reasons, I agree to such claim. The Class A motor home is really a perfect place for a home-away-from-home vacation on wheels. Here are some of its wonderful features: * Large, Roomy and Well-Equipped – I bet you are considering a Class A motor home because of these attributes. Well, this type of motorized recreational vehicle is really spacious and well-appointed. It offers every possible luxury found in most recreational vehicles today including bedrooms, bathrooms, entertainment centers, kitchens, basement storage, washers and dryers, VCRs, hydraulic leveling, hot tubs, satellite dishes, back-up cameras, and even security systems. * Slide Outs – Perhaps what makes a Class A motor home worth living is its having slide outs that provide added space for the dwellers. The sections inside the vehicle can be moved outward or inward at the touch of the button. This way, you can enlarge the kitchen, dining or living room easily if you desire. * Fully Winterized – There are a lot of Class A motor homes out there in the market today that are fully winterized. This feature may include a high BTU furnace, double-glazed windows, heated tanks, and insulations that are upgraded, making this motor home type perfect for winter outing. * Smooth and Stable Ride – A fully, properly loaded Class A motor home provides a smooth and stable ride for the travelers. What’s more, no special license is required from the driver, so any experienced driver can take the wheel wherever is desired. Although the Class A type of motor home has all such wonderful features, it still has certain disadvantages that make it a bit unfavorable. One of the most well-known negatives of this type is some people find it difficult to back up and turn in close places. As such, it could be difficult to drive for sightseeing, shopping or running errands. It may also provide the travelers problem with determining the right side clearance because of the width of the driving compartments it provides. Now, if you are thinking of renting a Class A motor home, then it’s best to weigh the available options first before you decide on taking it. Consider its advantages, disadvantages, construction, and of course the price.

Outdoor adventure. Extreme sports. Great bonding. Exciting activities. Unforgettable summer. All these and more await campers from different walks of life. It is not just all about amusement but an experience that gives room for learning and growth, to prepare them in the real challenges to be encountered. Here is a list of grounds in the United Kingdom that are conducive for campers to pitch their tents and stay for an overnight or two. * Low Wray, Windermere, Lake District Campers of all ages would love this place because the site has flat grassy areas for larger tents. If you get there early, you can pitch in the wooded corners on the lake shore. It is quiet and secluded with panoramic views of the fells and the sound of the water lapping gently against the shore, on a warm summer’s evening. The Drunken Duck pub is within easy walking distance if you fancy a good meal, but you can’t beat a barbecue and a few glasses of wine by the lake in the dusk on a balmy twilight. According to Bolton Roz Kaufman, “I had never camped in my life until 13 years ago when at the age of 40 and sailing on Lake Windermere with my husband, we noticed a magical-looking wooded area with a small beach. It was a paradise to behold”. www.nationaltrust.org.uk * Flamingo Land Holiday Village, North Yorkshire This is fantastic for campers that arrive by family. The facilities are terrific with a luxury pool across from the pitch area. It is well organized and feels very safe especially for those who have toddlers with them. The play areas are great and within sight of the tents. The shower and laundry areas are well kept. Flamingo Land theme park has everything from fairground rides to a wonderful zoo, all set around a beautiful walk. www.flamingoland.co.uk * Norman’s Bay, Pevensey, East Sussex If you love the crystal blue waters with white sandy shorelines then this site is suited for you. It can be a bit windy though but nothing compares listening to the sound of the sea at night and seeing the sun rise above the water in the morning. The beach goes on for miles. The site has clean toilets and showers with a small shop. Behind it is a railway line which provides a friendly rumble when the trains pass. Cross at the level crossing and you’ll find one of the best pubs in East Sussex, The Star, which has a fabulous menu and an amazing outdoor playground for children. www.ukcampsite.co.uk * Tom’s Field, Langton Matravers, Dorset A mature site which has plenty of shelter giving campers that utmost privacy and spectacular view of the sea. There are no fancy facilities and the shop has an air of days gone by, which all adds to the rustic charm of the place. The coastal path nearby offers excellent walking opportunities with good pubs in a walking distance. www.tomsfieldcamping.co.uk * Glanllyn Lakeside, Bala, North Wales Located on the shores of Lake Bala, in Snowdonia National Park, it offers a lot of watersport activities like parasailing, windsurf, canoeing and kayaking. Campers can even simply mess in and swim. There is a narrow-gauge railway runs beside the lake from Bala to Llanuwchllyn. The Tryweryn National Whitewater Centre, acclaimed for its rafting and canoeing, is five miles away. Great cycle rides can be started from the site.

Commonly known as recreational vehicle or RV, a motor home is actually a unique form of vehicle perfect for camping and travel. It is easily identified by its being self-propelled and attached to a chassis. It can occupy a large number of people, from two to seven, making it perfect for family trips. Well, what really makes a motor home a “home” for families is that despite it size, a motor home is full equipped with a kitchen, bedroom, bathroom and dining facilities. All of these are accessible to the driver’s area. Aside from that, a motor home is complete with electricity, air conditioning, water and propane gas and heating. A motor home comes in different types. To mention but a few, below are the most common types of motor home; all differ according to sizes, facilities included, and of course the assembly and appearance. Coachbuilt Motor Vehicle The coachbuilt type of motor home is identified by its being an extended chassis on a van cab with a coachbuilt living space, hence the name. It differs according to sizes, but usually the coachbuilt is wider than a typical van. It has wider caravan body that allows users to incorporate almost everything they need into a pretty small area. This type is also known as C-Class in the United Kingdom, but is also sometimes called as motor caravan. Class A Motor Vehicle The Class A type is perhaps one of the most well-known and commonly used motor home in the world. This vehicle usually comes in medium and large size that is completely coachbuilt. Perhaps what sets this type unique from the others is that it has nothing of the original van bodywork or cab exterior. Also, many of those who have known this type noted that the Class A motor home is potentially the best design that is ever known to man as almost everything is provided based on the needs of the occupiers. The downside of this type, however, is that the Class A is more expensive and is historically not popular in the United Kingdom. Hightop Motor Vehicle Another worth noting type of motor home is the hightop. According to some reviews, this vehicle is basically a delivery van or a panel van conversion that features a special high fixed roof. It has a wheelbase found on the van chassis which has actually a strong impact on the space available for the occupiers. The impact is perhaps notable as the width of hightop is more or less fixed. In addition, the hightop type of motor home typically comes in long wheelbase van that no doubt provides the most space. The downside of this width, however, is that it can be unwieldy to drive, meaning that the driver may need some effort and control to properly maneuver the vehicle. Because of this fact, the medium sized hightop motor home is much favored. This vehicle is often referred to as “campervan” or “camper”.
