Thea Naylor, 26, from Kingsbridge, Devon, turned a 1970s caravan bought for £200 on Facebook Marketplace into a mobile matcha business. Match-A-Maker launched in spring 2025 after the couple renovated the caravan with no prior experience. Videos of the transformation gained millions of views on TikTok and Instagram, leading to queues at events. Naylor is now seeking a permanent pitch in Plymouth but plans to keep the caravan for pop-ups.

Guernsey resident Andy Brown recounted a month-long trip across the UK in a VW campervan. The journey was marked by rainy weather and mishaps: an exploding glass hob lid and interior flooding from an accidentally activated shower.

A group of people who illegally parked their caravans on playing fields at Dovecot Park in Edinburgh have been served a Notice to Quit, requiring them to leave by 5pm on June 28. The local football club Currie Star FC, which maintains the pitches, raised concerns that the encampment could prevent reseeding and treatment of the fields ahead of the upcoming season.

Fenland neighbourhood officers recovered a stolen motorhome and a road roller this week. The motorhome, stolen from Lincolnshire, was found in Wisbech St Mary the same day.

Shelley and Martin White, owners of Tower Park Chalet Park in Seaton, East Devon, say their business could become unviable due to government leasehold reforms aimed at protecting permanent residents. The reforms introduce a ground rent cap of £250, which the Whites claim would cut their income by 50%. The park operates only 7.5 months a year, and each chalet can be used for a maximum of 28 consecutive days. The couple have discussed the issue with MP Richard Foord, who raised it in the House of Commons, noting the law unintentionally captures holiday parks.
