Homeowners have so much to pay out for. Unless you are fortunate enough to own your home outright then you will be shelling out for a mortgage, or paying rent on a monthly basis to a landlord. Then there are the other costs associated with running a home including utility bills and maintenance. Living in a touring caravan doesn\u2019t come for free (you will still have to pay site fees, and costs associated with running and maintaining your little home on wheels), however, this will be far less than the cost of living in a house or flat.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"More_Time\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\"><b>More Time<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Looking after a home can be a real pain, there are floors to clean, shelves to dust, toilets to scrub, beds to change, the list of chores seems to go on and on. Living in a touring caravan will drastically cut the amount of time you spend keeping your home spick and span \u2013 a smaller space means less to clean and less room for clutter. Your days of pushing around a vacuum are well and truly numbered! Instead, you can spend your leisure time lounging, reading, sitting in the sunshine and enjoying a siesta whenever you please \u2013 bliss! <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Fresh_Air_Great_Views\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\"><b>Fresh Air &amp; Great Views<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">When you\u2019ve lived in the same home for a few years the view can be tiresome, and residential streets can be a little uninspiring. Living in a touring caravan allows you the possibility of waking up every morning to green fields, majestic mountains, rugged coastlines, or even a sea view. Moving away from the bustle of the city could be just the tonic if you\u2019re seeking a more peaceful way of life. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"A_Versatile_Lifestyle\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\"><b>A Versatile Lifestyle<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Providing you can find somewhere to park your touring caravan, you can travel wherever you please. Tour the UK, go and see all of those sights you\u2019ve never had the chance to see before, or pack up your belongings and tow your caravan overseas to enjoy a spot of Mediterranean sunshine (a great option if you don\u2019t fancy spending <a href=\"https:\/\/www.caravanhelper.co.uk\/best-caravans-for-winter-use\/\" class=\"\" >winter huddled in your caravan in the UK).<\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Sharing_Your_Space\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\"><b>Sharing Your Space <\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If you are going to be living with your partner you should think about whether you can cope being in such close proximity to one another for long periods. Touring caravans don\u2019t allow much in the way of free space, so you need to be super-comfortable with one another to make it work. It\u2019s fine being cooped up together for a long weekend, but are you going to cope with sharing close quarters after a few months or years?<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lack_of_Space\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\"><b>Lack of Space <\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Space is at a premium in a touring caravan, so you won\u2019t be able to take all of your worldly goods with you. Therefore, you will need to have a huge clear-out and possibly find storage for certain items (you might have to ask friends and family to kindly lend you some space, or rent a storage locker). You will need to be super-organised and neat if you want to keep things in order (and fit everything in). <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lack_of_Facilities\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\"><b>Lack of Facilities<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">As we are all aware, touring caravans aren\u2019t designed to fit in dishwashers, washing machines, four poster beds, and whirlpool baths! So, if there are certain creature comforts you can\u2019t live without you might want to think long and hard before you commit to live in a touring caravan. Even the facilities they do come with, such as a fridge, might not be ideal for full-time living. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.caravanhelper.co.uk\/how-much-gas-does-a-caravan-fridge-use\/\" class=\"\" >Caravan fridges<\/a> are on the small side, and the freezer is often only big enough to fit in a couple of ice-cube trays. The lack of laundry facilities means that you will have to hand-wash and line dry if it\u2019s fine outside, otherwise, you will be draping your undies over the shower, etc. Alternatively, you will have to head to the nearest laundrette. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lack_of_a_Permanent_Address\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\"><b>Lack of a Permanent Address<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If you\u2019re planning on heading off into the horizon with your touring caravan firmly hitched to your car, staying short-term on different sites and exploring the country (or even beyond), then you will find plenty of sites to accommodate you. If you\u2019re considering a site that offers long-term pitches you might find it more difficult. Whether you choose to tour or find somewhere to stay long-term, you will still face the issue of not having a permanent address. If you can\u2019t provide an address you might have problems in terms of receiving post, registering for doctors, voting, and securing insurance, etc. <\/span><\/p>\n<h3 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Where_Can_I_Site_My_Caravan_Permanently\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\"><b>Where Can I Site My Caravan Permanently?<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">You have a couple of options, first, off you could seek out a seasonal pitch on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.caravanhelper.co.uk\/devon-caravan-sites-with-swimming-pool\/\" >caravan site<\/a>. These vary in price, so it all depends on the location you are interested in, shop around to see what you can find for your money. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">When you pay for a seasonal pitch you are securing rental for a certain number of months (again the duration varies from site to site, some offer eight months, some less, and some more). Some seasonal sites do offer twelve-month pitches, but you are only allowed to actually stay on site with your caravan for eleven months. You may have to leave, but the good news is that your caravan gets to stay there, safely stored until your return.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Alternatively, you could opt for doing as the name of your caravan suggests \u2013 go touring. Travelling around the country from site to site can be liberating, and allow you to visit as many places as you like. As a general rule, you are allowed to spend up to twenty-eight days on one caravan site before moving on to another. Plan your route in advance to make sure you have somewhere to stay (especially in high season), winter can be a problem \u2013 as some sites close, so make sure you locate a place to stay during that time. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">If you\u2019re feeling industrious you could even look into securing a job as an assistant warden, working for a company such as the Camping &amp; Caravan Club often entitles you to a free pitch, with facilities thrown in. Plus, you get to mix with like-minded caravan enthusiasts all day long. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2 class=\"p1\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Do_Others_Think_About_Living_in_a_Touring_Caravan\"><\/span><span class=\"s1\"><b>What Do Others Think About Living in a Touring Caravan?<\/b><\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">People have their own reasons for choosing to live in a touring caravan 24\/7. For some, it\u2019s a financial decision, they simply cannot afford to stay in their current home, or they grow tired of paying the mortgage or rent and expenses associated with living in a house or flat. Some opt to move into a touring caravan whilst they save money for something they really want, such as a new home.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Others just like the sense of freedom associated with living in a touring caravan, the notion that you are not rooted in one spot can be very liberating. If you get bored in one place there\u2019s nothing to really stop you from packing up and heading to a new destination. There\u2019s a sense of simplifying your life, of saying goodbye to big bills, long commutes and trying to keep up with the Jones\u2019. Moving into a touring caravan enables you to take stock, declutter and streamline, and make a fresh start, and that in itself can be very therapeutic. <\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Let\u2019s take a look at a few people who have made the enormous decision to swap conventional living for a life in their touring caravan:<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><strong><span class=\"s2\">The Modern-Day Man Living in A Caravan!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p3\"><span class=\"s2\">Andrew Mellody lives in a caravan so he can help others.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GS1s_MoEkco\" width=\"750\" height=\"430\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><span data-mce-type=\"bookmark\" style=\"display: inline-block; width: 0px; overflow: hidden; line-height: 0;\" class=\"mce_SELRES_start\">\ufeff<\/span><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">Living in a caravan full time, Spain in Winter, UK in summer as camping and caravan site wardens.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/EISiJW-ri-g\" width=\"750\" height=\"430\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\"><span class=\"s2\">How to Live in a Caravan, Motorhome or RV in the UK<\/span><\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/nEZaQSWi--Y\" width=\"750\" height=\"430\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\"><span class=\"s2\">Moving to live in a touring caravan permanently is a major lifestyle choice, and many have undertaken it in order to change their lives and follow their dreams. They may have aspirations of chasing sunnier skies, perhaps spending summer in one city or country, and winter in another. It\u2019s certainly appealing, but if you\u2019re tempted to swap the conventional for something a little more adventurous, we suggest you take some time out to consider if permanently living in a touring caravan is really for you! <\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>There\u2019s nothing better than hitching up your touring caravan on a sunny afternoon and heading to the coast or countryside.
