Summer has officially ended and autumn is just around the corner! Whilst touring in the summer months is often seen as more appealing, exploring in the autumn can still be just as exciting with colourful leaves, warm drinks, and crisp fresh air. Small motorhomes are perfect for autumnal getaways bringing plenty of benefits and the ultimate cosy vibes. Keep reading to discover our top reasons why small motorhomes are ideal for autumn adventures.
The UK’s most scenic autumnal routes are often narrow and winding; think Lake District lanes, small scenic villages, and single track roads. Small motorhomes are much easier to manoeuvre on these roads, you can reach hidden gems and secluded spots that larger motorhomes can’t access. With a small motorhome, you can truly immerse yourself in all the autumnal beauty!
Although autumn is much quieter than peak summer months, some campsites reduce pitch availability. A compact motorhome fits almost anywhere, great for last minute trips or smaller campsites. This is ideal if you enjoy going on short, spontaneous getaways where parking can be limited.
A big benefit of having a small motorhome is there is less space to keep warm compared to bigger motorhomes. Heating a small space is quicker and more energy efficient in the cooler autumn temperatures, so you can stay cosy and comfortable for longer. Plus, with less energy needed to keep warm, you’ll have more freedom to explore off-grid without worrying about running out of power.
Autumn means shorter daylight hours and cooler weather, so you may take longer drives to maximise driving in daylight hours. Smaller motorhomes often have better MPG, making them more cost effective for long autumn drives. This not only helps you save on fuel but also gives you the advantage of exploring hidden gems and scenic routes without constantly filling up the tank.
Small motorhomes often will feature smart layouts, foldable beds and storage so you can maximise space. Small 2-berth motorhomes are ideal for solo travellers and couples, who prefer a snug, efficient space compared to a larger one. These small but thoughtful designs create a homely feel without sacrificing comfort or practicality, making it easy to cook, relax, and sleep comfortably all whilst still travelling light.
Whether it’s winding through country lanes or enjoying a hot drink inside, a small motorhome can make your adventures more cosy and effortless. With thoughtful designs, cost efficiency and ability to reach places larger motorhomes can’t, they’re the perfect way to experience the magic of autumn. Wherever the road takes you, you’ll feel cosy, comfortable and free to explore hidden gems.
