Vintage Camper Van Holidays in Cornwall
Ok this might not be the most seasonal of blog posts, but just in case the dreary cold has got you hoping for sunny times, here is a really wonderful way to see Cornwall.
Picture this; the allure of the open road, the vintage camper, breath-taking beaches and quality family time - sounds rather perfect to me! Wild and Free Cornish Campers are a little company based in Wadebridge, North Cornwall, who offer the chance to do just that, borrow Pip the beautifully restored T2 WW camper and take off! This stunning retro classic is not just for surfers. 'Pip' is a 1974 VW Westfalia and sleeps 4, the company provide pretty much everything you might need (even a bluetooth radio and sat nav!) for a lovely, movable, holiday in Cornwall.
I do love these camper vans, a friend had one when I was at art college in Plymouth and we would all pile in for an adventure. Pip has been thoughtfully and beautifully restored and the family-run company seem to have thought of everything, you can tell they are fans of the open road themselves.
I recall some of the best adventures we had as a family in Cornwall were when we didn't quite know where we were going! Random country lanes, surprising views as you turn the corner and picnic spots that you never want to leave. Truthfully camping in Cornwall always comes with the possibility of rain which is why camper van holidays are so great - added protection from the elements! With so much of the county still to explore I have to say I am really tempted to take Pip for a jaunt, what a way to holiday in Cornwall!
