Olympics Accessible to Caravans and Motorhomes
The Caravan Club will, with the help of former British hurdles champion Sally Gunnell (OBE), set up a temporary campsite for the 2012 Olympics in London. It is to be located near the Chigwell Tube station, and caravanners will be able to travel to the main olympic sites in 15 mins, reports the Caravan Times.
What a great opportunity to be close to the action without paying a fortune for an overpriced hotel!
The Caravan Club is well established in the UK and Ireland.
How did the club suddenly find a campsite in London? Gunnell has given them the use of her childhood home, Old Farm. She is said to be delighted that caravanners will make use of the grounds.
Work is well underway on the facilities for the 2012 games.

I have been General Manager of Motorhome Republic, the operators of this website, for 4 years and with the company for 6 years starting as a Sales / Account Manager. Previous roles have included account manager and software architect for a web design firm, advertising sales across multiple media and television production. I’ve been lucky enough to go Motorhoming several times in Canada, USA and New Zealand so far and grew up going on caravanning holidays with Mum and Dad. The value and freedom Motorhoming offers are its two main drawcards for me. That and the envy on the other campers’ faces when you pull into a State Park campground with no hook ups in a 31’ Class C with double slide outs, on board generator, side awning, exterior entertainment unit and smoker unit for a 10kg salmon caught earlier that day.
I have been in the Motorhome industry for the best part of 6 years and with Motorhomes Republic for the last 18 months. I previously worked for the largest Motorhome rental company in the world as the New Zealand Sales Account Manager. I’ve traveled the length and width of New Zealand in many different categories of Motorhomes, in fact I don’t think there is a main state highway I haven’t driven. The love I have for Motorhomes is one of freedom and flexibility, doing what I want when I want. If I have a hankering for a cup of coffee in a beautiful scenic spot simply stop boil and enjoy….
