If you’re a bit of an unconventional camper and like staying away from the mainstream festival frenzy why not go off the beaten trail this year? The biggest names and brands usually get all the credit, however, depending on your musical taste there are plenty of Summer festivals you can pitch at for a party without the crowds this year!
Here are some less talked about festivals that don’t get as much credit as they deserve. We’ve covered all areas of the UK and all music tastes, all you’ll have to do is pick one, plan the route and get your motorhome ready to face the music.
The Bestival is held in Dorset and showcases music from the charts but a lot of alternatives and upcoming niche music also. This presents the perfect opportunity to enjoy new and unheard music without all the crowds you would usually get at a mainstream festival. The festival itself offers onsite motorhome camping which makes it a great destination for a motorhome festival trip this summer. Bestival will take place from 28th to the 31st July this year which makes camping even more of a treat because the UK will be in prime summer conditions!
Kendal Calling is a festival held in the beautiful Lake District each year in Lowther Deer Park. It’s been running since 2006 and is one of the lesser-known festivals featuring some huge names such as Bastille, Stereophonics and Sophie Ellis Bexter. The predominantly rock/ indie festival is set in an amazing location on a lake and is totally motorhome friendly. Being situated in the Lake District, it is easy to find and access via car. Kendal Calling Festival will take place from the 28th to the 31st July - making it ideal camping weather.
Middlewich Folk and Boat is a folk festival held in the small Cheshire village of Middlewich. The festival celebrates rural life and everything Cheshire stands for and although it is a Folk festival, it has a little something for everyone! The festival has numerous campsites around the festival and takes place in different locations within the village. It is motorhome friendly but unfortunately does not have facilities such as concrete stands and electric hookups. This would suit the more carefree campers with a love for folk music and is taking place between 16th and 19th June. Headlining this year are the iconic Waterboys!

"Good selection of motorhomes not to dear price wise and good after sales"
"It has been a pleasure to do business with you, and to deal with a good friendly team."
"I have been a customer for, almost, eighteen years and currently own my eighth motorhome. I have had issues with some of my vehicles but all have been resolved at the earliest possible date, as I live 148 miles away. I have NEVER had just cause not to trust anyone at Timberland and would certainly never take my business elsewhere. They have all become my friends over the years and I class them as my second family..enough said."
"Thank you to Gary, who sold us our Autotrail Cheyenne, who made paying for it almost a pleasure. We have no hesitation in recommending Timberland to all."
"Great company, great service, friendly and helpful staff. Lee and Julian are very approachable and knowledgeable, always willing to go that extra mile, even out of hours. Highly recommended."
"Thank you for my van and the collection service you offered us. We drove away in the pouring rain feeling on a high for all you had done to make the collection and purchase go so well."
"Many thanks for the delivery of my son's motorhome. You deserve a medal for your kindness and helpfulness. Thank you once again."
"Nice to be able to go to look out motorhmes And not have the sales person follow you around, they came and said hello explained that all the Van's were open and more that welcome to look inside and if you need any more information just come and ask. Now that's my sort of experience I like and all the staff we meet were very friendly and helpful."
"Have purchased my last 3 motorhomes from here the staff are all very knowledgeable and friendly and always willing to go that extra mile."
"Dear Andy and Steve, I just wanted to drop you both a line to say thanks for a great day when we came to collect our Starblazer Motorhome. And to thank the valeters for all the hard work that they have done on it. IT LOOKS FANTASTIC. It has been a great experience dealing with Timberland. Everyone has been most helpful and friendly."
"On our second Motorhome from Timberland. We've always had excellent service and help when we've needed it. Friendly and personal, staff have now become friends. What are you waiting for?!"
"Visited yesterday and received a very warm welcome. Large range of motorhomes and the sales people very happy to show us around. Spending time to find out what we wanted for our budget...."
