Camping goes back to trendy in the UK.With students and parents tightening their belts in the face of tne global economic crisis,the overseas holiday tourism around the world is suffering a lot.For many young Brits,during uncertain times,cheap,traditional and homemade altenatives are the choice.
A lot of these people are developing a particular taste for camping holidays.The Camping and Caravanning.Club is reporting a 40 percent increase in booking this year,as well as an increase in new membership applications.
Campsites in the UK generally fall into two categories:holiday parks and wild camping.
The holiday parks are usually large,and accept earavans(旅居车)and tents and have many facilities,from swimming pools to laundry services to bars and shops.For example,young people can find much fun in the Wild Boar Inn campsite in Cheshire.northwest England.There’s live music every Saturday,with 60s,70s and 80s-inspired acts for an evening of laughs.These places are good fbr young Britons to get social.And it’s cheap,only around 5 pounds for entry and people can use all the facilities.
For others,the beauty of camping is in enjoying nature and tranquility(宁静),so a wilder camping experience is also attractive. These people choose anywhere remote,with no light or noise po11ution.The campers often choose relatively small campsites.For example,the Highlands of Scotland.and Danmoor in southern England.
