Roof tents are a great way to experience the freedom and flexibility of camping. Quick to set up and take down, they're ultra-durable and provide added comfort and protection. Plus they're versatile enough to fit onto all kinds of cars, making roof tents a great choice for campers looking to unlock adventure in new places.
Even the hardiest adventurers need a break. So when roughing it just isn’t cutting it any more, it’s good to know you can park up, grab a hot shower and settle in with some like-minded outdoor enthusiasts. With UK Club campsites in some incredible locations, a wealth of offers and savings, and a whole lot more - you’ll find a home-from-home at the Caravan and Motorhome Club. Check out our video and see how you'll fit right in at the Club.

Abbey Wood Club Campsite
Roof tents have been around longer than you think, since the 1930's, with the first patented design by an Italian designer in 1958, followed by a boom in the 1960's and 1970's with people heading off to enjoy their camping trips in the hard shell roof tents. Used all over the world for adventurers, explorers and those who just love the outdoors.
