Data from luxury holiday home manufacturer Victory Leisure Homes shows online searches for “staycations” rose 22 per cent year on year, while “caravan holidays near me” jumped 23 per cent. The figures point to a shift away from the traditional fortnight abroad and towards shorter, more spontaneous breaks closer to home. Industry representatives note that same-day bookings are significantly more common than pre-Covid, and caravans are increasingly expected to include wine fridges, king-size beds and dressing rooms as standard.
