Winter Motorhome Holiday Check List

Don’t let the sudden suggestion of looming winter weather put you off planning a motorhome holiday in the cooler months of the year.

Some of Britain’s top attractions and locations are best visited in autumn or winter, and providing you have the necessary provisions in place, you should not have any problems on a winter motorhome holiday.

Motorhome Winter Trip Check List

There are a number of things you will need to do to your motorhome during the winter, storing it safely and preparing for it to be out of use for months are just a few things you will need to take care of.

However, if you have decided that you are not ready to pack up for winter and still want more motorhome fun then here are a few tips on how to make the most of your motorhome winter break.

• As always, safety should come first so even if you have been out and about in your motorhome over the summer you should make a few checks first. Take a look at the condition of your tyres; check they have the correct tread and there are no signs of perishing
• Check fluid levels in all areas including power steering, engine coolant, engine oil and windshield washer. Check to see if there are any leaks anywhere and if there is get it checked out by a trained professional
• You’ll be taking more layers on any winter break including a motorhome trip. If you are unsure of your weight then take it, loaded, to a weighbridge, this will also help you established the correct tyre pressure settings for your particular motorhome
• Plan your trip. Have a look at your intended destination to see if there is any potential for delays and safety risks. i.e. see if your route includes any areas which are prone to flooding, large traffic build ups or remote locations with few facilities
• Make sure that your camping destination has the facilities you want. If you want more of a rugged adventure then be equipped with emergency supplies
