In our younger days with children, we camped first, graduated to caravans, built our first campervan on an old Bedford CF LWB. Now the kids are older and left home we bought a Motor home, sold it because of trouble with it, then a few years later bought another German Motor home, sold it because we had trouble with it. Now 2 years after selling it we have bought a Campervan. My thoughts are, camping is time consuming, cold and wet. Caravans are a pain to drag around and set up. Motor homes are big and cumbersome. Our Boxer MWB camper is a reasonable size (I am 6'2"). It fits down lanes easily, you can stop and put the kettle on, set up on site in minutes, warm and dry in the British climate. The down side is, like Motor homes, you have to take it with you if you want to visit villages/sights whilst on holiday. Some people strap cycles to the back, which is great if you are into that sort of thing, or tow cars or trailers with motorcycles on. Then you are back to the caravan thing again. You will have to think hard what your priorities will be. We have decided the camper is best, slightly less room and storage space than a motor home, but more manageable. You just have to buy the things you need for it, rather than trying to fit all your old gear in.
