Booking a camping spot near an event

Choose a motorhome location close to an event you want to attend. This will allow you to relax and enjoy yourself without long travel times. Popular events often attract many visitors, which can lead to fully booked campsites. By booking a motorhome site in advance, you can be assured of a comfortable place to stay.

This is how to book a motorhome site

Check the facilities for motorhomers

Always check whether the motorhome site offers suitable facilities. Look for information such as electricity connections, water points and waste disposal. If you can be self-sufficient for a few days, you probably won't need this right away. Not every site is suitable for larger motorhomes or has flat spots. Use the Campercontact app or website to check details before booking. By doing this in advance, you can avoid unpleasant surprises during your stay.

Choose the size that suits you

Are you looking for a small-scale, intimate location with just a few spots or do you prefer a large campsite with many facilities? Use the filters to quickly find the right segment. Also check how much space you need before booking a motorhome site. Traveling with a large motorhome? Choose a spot that offers enough space. If you have a small motorhome, a more compact spot will often suit you better. Use Campercontact's filters to find spots that suit your motorhome.

Save locations as favorites

On Campercontact, you'll find over 50,000 motorhome sites. That's great, but how do you keep track of the ones that caught your eye for potential booking? Writing them down in a notebook? It can be even more convenient: save locations as favorites. You can even add them to a list, e.g. Easter weekend. That way you can always find them again, so you can book them with a few clicks. This makes planning future trips much more organized. Saving locations is a feature of PRO+, giving you everything you need for an unforgettable motorhome trip.

First check the reviews before booking a campsite

Very important: always read reviews from others before booking a motorhome spot. Reviews provide insight into the actual state of a location, such as its cleanliness, facilities and atmosphere. Many managers also respond to reviews. From their responses, you can see how they deal with feedback. The average rating already gives a good indication, but recent experiences will give you a clear picture of what to expect.

Book in time

We cannot emphasize it enough: make sure you book your campsite or motorhome site on time. Experienced motorhomers may find it a bit disapponting, but times are changing: motorhomes are on the rise. So you are not the only one looking for a spot. By booking in advance, you avoid competition at the reception, so be sure to make your reservation on time.

Book your next motorhome trip and enjoy!

With a pre-booked motorhome spot, you can be sure of a relaxed trip. No more stressful searches or disappointments at a full campsite, but a guaranteed spot that you have already chosen in advance, at home. By filtering based on facilities and checking reviews, there will be no surprises. This way, you can look forward to your trip and already get exicited, rather than scrambling for last-minute solutions Good luck with your booking and enjoy your next motorhome adventure!
