The pandemic has forced most people to stay in the UK. However, we all desperately need a vacation. That's why, this year, people have opted for "staycations". Staycations are vacations in your own country. While this may sound uninspiring to those who frequently visit the Mediterranean, there are actually many brilliant things to do and beautiful places to visit in the UK. If you have any doubts, let us convince you otherwise. So read on for X ideas for a UK vacation while we're in the middle of a pandemic.
1.) Travel by camper van
One of the best types of vacations for a home vacation is traveling by motorhome. First, you can go wherever you want and be completely self-sufficient. Second, you don't have to pay lodging fees to stay in different parts of the country. Third, you can limit your social interaction while RVing (which is important during the pandemic). Finally, nothing beats a good old-fashioned road trip. Check out www.roseisle.com/ for a selection of luxury motorhomes for your vacation this year.
2.) Go camping
Camping is the perfect type of vacation for adventure seekers, especially in the UK. The country is full of beautiful forests, epic landscapes and stunning coastlines. We highly recommend bringing your hiking books and hiking the West Highland Way. While camping vacations are not for the faint of heart, they are still a lot of fun.
3.) Houseboat Vacations
Instead of traveling across the land, why not rent a houseboat and sail on some of the most beautiful canals in the UK? If you didn't already know, a houseboat is a type of boat that doubles as a home. It's basically the water version of a motorhome. If you're in the mood for a cloak-and-dagger adventure, this is perfect for you. Being on a houseboat also means you limit your social interaction with other people.
4.) Vacation Lodge
We've mostly talked about intensive vacations in this article, so let's move on to something a little more low-key. If you want to rest and relax, why not rent a vacation lodge? These cottages are incredibly comfortable, nestled in the most breathable parts of the UK. For example, you can easily find lodges near the lochs in Scotland or quaint beach cottages in Cornwall. Whichever location appeals to you, really.
5.) Glamping
If you need a breath of fresh air but don't want to go camping, glamping might be the perfect option for you. You get a hot shower, a cozy room, warm accommodations, all while being surrounded by nature. Many vacation providers in the UK offer glamping. For those looking for a quick weekend getaway, this option is definitely worth it.
