    How to Enjoy a Caravan Break this Christmas

    Christmas is a great time to get away. Whether you want to go somewhere to cosy up and celebrate, or escape the madness of silly season altogether. With purse strings being stretched more and more around this time of year it can be nigh on impossible to afford an expensive holiday abroad, so why not head for a caravan holiday instead?

    Needless to say, at Regal Furnishings, we love caravan holidays at any time of year. But here are just some of the reasons why Christmas could be the perfect time for a caravan break.

    You can visit relatives without imposing yourself

    We all have a long list of loved ones to see during the festive period, but it can be difficult to visit far away friends without inviting yourselves to sleep on their couch.

    But with a caravan this needn’t be the case; you can go see your loved ones around the country safe in the knowledge that you won’t overstay your welcome.

    Break up those long trips

    Heading across the country to visit friends and family with a caravan?

    It can be tiresome trekking to different cities to visit loved ones, so why not turn the journey into a holiday of its own by travelling by caravan?

    Christmas is about being close to loved ones

    Nothing evokes a feeling of closeness like taking a caravan trip with someone.

    Reconnect and spend quality time with your family by taking a trip in a caravan during the holidays.

    Enjoying a break from work

    With a lot of people having time off between Christmas and New Year, there’s no better time to treat yourself to a little getaway.

    Celebrate you and your loved ones enjoying time away from work together by heading off to enjoy the beauty of the countryside in winter.

    A caravan trip can make a great Christmas present

    With a special someone in mind, you can go almost anywhere.

    Show them you care by planning a trip away and enjoy the money you save, as it is sure to be much more affordable than flights!

    Get the best spot for the New Year’s Eve fireworks

    Everybody wants to be in the best place to watch the fireworks welcome in the New Year, but securing a last-minute hotel room near them can be difficult, not to mention expensive.

    Are the fireworks near you are a bit ropey? Then, what are you waiting for? Hop in the caravan and head to a city where they are sure to impress.

    Beat the January blues and save your trip for after Christmas

    If you don’t have time to get away during December, what with work dos and festive fuddles, then why not plan a caravan holiday for the New Year?

    As people recover from the post-Christmas comedown, you could be enjoying a break by the sea.

    Or just avoid the madness

    Maybe Christmas isn’t for you. But a caravan trip still could be; they provide the perfect, affordable way to escape the scense of Christmas.

    Just return in January when the it is all over.

    So, whether you’re mad about Christmas or a self-proclaimed Scrooge, there couldn’t be a better time for a caravan trip!

      Can thoroughly recommend Regal Furnishings in Ilkestone if you're considering renewing upholstery in a motorhome.
      After our initial visit to discuss, we arrived for the work to be done on a Wednedsay afternoon and departed Friday morning. We camped" out in their car park with EHU for a couple of nights whilst they worked their magic.
      We took the bus and spent an enjoyable day on the main refit day discovering Nottingham to amuse ourselves. (Recommend City of Caves and Justice museum)
      They did a whole upholstery refurb for us -Captains seats, rear lounge, head bangers! (as they affectionately call the upholstered bits above windows and as you go into cab) were all redone along with new foam- even with the IH logo embroidered in if desired on headrests.
      They also rejigged the rear cushion into 3, meaning we can more easily use the storage door in to the boot area from inside.
      Regal Furnishings are a company that truly is a pleasure to deal with.

    • Thank you to everyone at Regal Furnishings for a wonderful job and for making us so welcome! Highly recommend to anyone thinking of having theirs done!

    • I can not recommend this company enough. They turn up at your door at 7.30 am strip the Motorhome and have it all back together and on the road by 4.30 in the afternoon. I would also say the ladies/ team will kidnap your dog and spoil them rotten given half a chance as they did with our staff, Bella. Great people!

    • Just to say again,
      very many thanks for your superb hard work on our new Campervan Autosleeper Symbol upholstery.The photos are also very helpful!

      I left our thanks yous until we had slept a couple of nights ( in incredible heat!) on the bed too ,when assembled ! It worked really well- the leather was very comfy and the firmness just right! Brilliant work!

      Not quite home yet,but very pleased with all your attention to the detail, superb customer service and completion on time ! A lovely team !and highly recommended.
      Considering the amount of leather needed and workmanship also good value!

    • Absolutely amazing… thank you for transforming our auto trail you are all fantastic, professional and polite. Thank you to for all your help.
      Would recommend every time x

    • Today we had our motorhome completely recovered in leather what a fabulous experience. We were looked after like one of the family, we arrived late last night offered a place with electric hook up nothing was too much trouble and safe behind metal gates. What can we say Michael was a true gentleman he came into our motorhome and checked everything made sure we had the best advice. Karen and the staff were kind and very friendly and the finished result had me in tears, I was amazed that in a day our motorhome looked stunning incredible workmanship. We are going back in January for new carpets and curtains. Thankyou regal no one is as good as you. So anyone and everyone looking for a revamp should look no further than Regal furnishing. Thank you so much guys!

    • We are really pleased with the brilliant job that has been done, it transforms our interior completely and makes it look brand new. Please pass on our thanks to the team.
      Wishing all of you a very Happy Christmas and best wishes for 2025.

All done in very quick time and for a reasonable price. All put back to the van now and waiting to test them out tomorrow.
