Figuring out what to pack for a motorhome holiday in the UK can be a difficult task with the varying weather conditions we often get! Even in the summer months you could have gorgeous sunshine, warm, bright evenings and scorchers at the beach, or you could have cold temperatures, downpours of rain and chilly nights! You might even get both! Depending on the weather, your activities may change, so making sure you have all the right clothing, essentials and gear for your activities will ensure you make the most out of your precious time away.
