Footballer Erling Haaland has acquired an Airstream camper created in collaboration with Supreme as part of the brand's Spring/Summer 2022 collection. The vehicle measures approximately 6.7 metres long and was originally priced at around £67,000. Production was limited to 100 units. The camper features a kitchen with a stove, microwave and refrigerator, a separate bathroom, Ultraleather seating, a large bed and sleeping space for four. The exterior bears the Supreme logo and a large red awning. Haaland ordered the camper from the United States and had it shipped overseas; in a video on his YouTube channel, he said he would use it to store his Supreme collection.

The Southwest Motorhome Show 2026 will be held at the Bath & West Showground in Shepton Mallet, Somerset, from Friday 11 to Sunday 13 September. The event brings together dealers, exhibitors, motorhomes and campervans, alongside talks, demonstrations and live entertainment. Opening hours are 9.30am to 5pm on Friday and Saturday and 9.30am to 4pm on Sunday. Day tickets are £10 in advance or £15 without advance booking, with entry free for those aged 17 and under. On Saturday, a Repair Café will run from 11am to 1pm at The Art Bank Café, where volunteers will assess electrical appliances, mechanical and wooden items, jewellery, bags and clothes for repair.

East Suffolk Council approved a retrospective application from Cornerstone Paving Limited for four additional holiday caravans at Spring Park Caravan Park in Willingham St Mary, near Beccles, increasing the total from 24 to 28 units. The application was recommended for approval by planning officers despite objections from the parish council and a maintained holding objection from Suffolk County Council Highways over parking information. Councillor Toby Hammond urged refusal or deferral, citing the maintained holding objection, drainage and cycle storage concerns, and described Spring Park as having 'a long history of shenanigans'. Councillors approved the development with conditions including cycle storage provision, maintaining a register of occupants, and limiting occupiers to stays of no more than 56 days in a calendar year as holiday accommodation only.

Hoburne, which operates caravan parks in Dorset and the New Forest, has been named the UK's best caravan park operator by consumer group Which?. It was also named a Which? Recommended Provider for the third consecutive year. The company runs seven sites in southern England, including Hoburne Park, Hoburne Naish and Hoburne Bashley. The parks received a customer score of 81% and five stars for food and drink.

Somerset Council has approved traffic regulation orders introducing double yellow lines on several streets in Glastonbury to prevent unauthorised roadside encampments. Restrictions will be implemented on all four arms of the Morland roundabout, at the mini-roundabout on Tor View Avenue, and zig-zag markings will be installed near St. Dunstan's School. As of late February, 131 people were living in vans, caravans or motorhomes on roadsides in the town. The measures are part of a wider plan that includes developing an official site for the 'non-bricks and mortar' community under the £23.6m Glastonbury town deal.
