For many, a holiday is incomplete if no beach is in sight. If that’s what you think too, and you want to go back in time as well, you can go ahead and hire a classic and traditional beach hut just in the seafront at the Scarborough Beach Huts. Your stay will be colourful as ever, with the differently coloured huts and the sun giving its million dollar smile! Hop into your vintage swimwear, grab your spade and bucket, and prepare yourself to paddle away your days in the seas, eat as much ice cream as you can think of, and take donkey rides.
If the groovy hippie style is what you like, then we have something for you! Take on the adventure in a vintage split screen VW campervan by hiring it with “Split the Difference” company. Here you can explore North Wales, with either Jessie or Lucy. They are no humans but VW campervans from the 60’s. There routes include mountain bike adventures, a real ale tour, antiques and craft exploration, family camping holidays, surfing and road trip adventures, and more. Now you can hire these classic campers to cruise the open road for a truly unique adventure and adopt the philosophy of making home where you park.
In the heart of the Wye Valley in Hereford, just about an hour from Bristol or Birmingham, is “Mad Dogs and Vintage Vans”. Here you can stay in the beautifully decorated and named vintage caravans Elsie, Gertie, Sybil, or Monty. These caravans are located in a small windflower meadow, where you can enjoy the great view of the Hay Bluff and Black Mountains. Each caravan has its own private seating area and personalised retro décor. You will also indulge in various activities, such as visiting the town markets, swimming, pony trekking, follow the various hiking routes, and exploring the forest of Dean and River Wye.
