Why Campervans have retained their popularity in a post covid Ireland

Safe and self-contained travel:

Campervans and motorhomes provide a safe and self-contained way to travel. With a campervan, you can avoid crowded airports, hotels, and restaurants, and instead, travel with your own space, facilities, and amenities. This provides a sense of security and control over your environment.

Flexibility and freedom:

With a campervan or motorhome, you have the freedom to travel at your own pace and on your own terms. You can explore off-the-beaten-path destinations, stay in remote locations, and change your itinerary on the fly. This level of flexibility and freedom is appealing to many travellers, especially those who want to avoid crowded tourist areas. In Ireland we live in one of the least densely populated countries in Europe, this allows us to easily find remote and tranquil places.

Cost-effective travel:

Campervans and motorhomes can be a cost-effective way to travel, as they combine transportation and accommodation in one. Instead of paying for flights, hotels, and meals separately, you can save money by driving your own vehicle and preparing your own meals. This can be especially appealing for budget-conscious travellers.

Connection with nature:

Campervans and motorhomes allow travellers to connect with nature and the great outdoors. With the ability to camp in remote locations, you can experience the natural beauty of Ireland (or even go further afield) in a unique and immersive way. This can be especially appealing for those of us who still shudder at the memories of being cooped up inside during the pandemic and we now appreciate the fresh air and wide-open spaces that campervanning can provide.

Campervans and motorhomes offer a unique way to travel that is safe, flexible, cost-effective, and allows for a deeper connection with nature. These factors have contributed to their continuing popularity in Ireland post-COVID.
