We are finally in June - the month where all Covid-19 restrictions are set to be lifted at last! If everything goes to plan, the fourth and final stage of the roadmap will remove all limits on social contact and most importantly - travel!
The pandemic changed many things forever but one of them was the way people travel.
Staycations and motorhome holidays boomed - and people who wouldn’t usually enjoy the local scenery in a motorhome started unforgettable adventures right on their doorstep. Even the younger generation joined the UK’s growing number of caravanners!
Since Motorhome trips and caravanning became the new traveller’s trend, people also started debating whether or not their motorhome could become their full-time residence.
“Home is where you park it” has grown to be a popular saying among the motorhome community and with the carefree, adventurous life it comes with it’s not hard to see why! Here are the top 3 things to consider if you are really planning to live in your Timberland motorhome long term.
If you want to live a life out of the comfort of your motorhome then you need to make sure you can not only afford to sustain this lifestyle but also have a job that allows you to work remotely. Living on the road is more expensive than one may think due to petrol and parking fees adding up. Figure out your annual salary and expenses before you make the move to four wheels!
Get ready to live a very simple, minimalist lifestyle! Living and travelling with all your worldly possessions packed into your motorhome will not be possible (unless you don’t own much) so be prepared to part with the items you don’t need. Gradually sell, throw away or donate things you don’t need before you make the decision to move the rest to a motorhome.
Last but not least, before you take the plunge and decide to live long term in your motorhome make sure you’ve done plenty of research. This includes assessing the affordability of the motorhome you want, the size and number of people living inside, the distance you will travel, where you will travel to and of course test driving the motorhome to make sure it’s the right one.
Ready to make the full-time move to four wheels and have never-ending adventures? Whether you’ve recently retired, changed jobs or simply want to get out of the bustling city life, there’s a motorhome waiting at Timberland to make that dream a reality for you!

"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."
"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."
"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?!"
"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."
"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...."
"Have purchased my last 3 motorhomes from here the staff are all very knowledgeable and friendly and always willing to go that extra mile."
"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."
"We have bought 4 new motorhomes from Timberland and have always received good service. We have never had the hard sell we received from other dealers, Lee and Julian are approachable and happy to advise, and assist where necessary, leaving us to mull over proposed purchases in our own time. We will be back to Timberland when it is time to buy the next van."
"Good selection of motorhomes not to dear price wise and good after sales"
"My husband and I wish to express our thanks and appreciation for the excellent service we received from everyone when we recently purchased our motorhome. Good service is a rarity these days; hard to find and much-valued."
"Thank you for the service provided by your company when I had a problem with the charging unit on my Home Car 62. The unit you supplied and fitted is working well. Thanks again for all your help."
"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."
