Roam in a Motorhome

Who says it's not BBQ weather?! Last week, we defied the British summer to have a very own 'barbie in the car park' as we welcomed Keith from Maui Motorhomes to our office in leafy Banstead complete with 2-berth Ultima motorhome.

As the sausages sizzled on the van's built-in BBQ, (exterior, of course), I took the opportunity to look over this comfortable and frankly ingeniously designed vehicle and re-confirmed my opinion that travelling by motorhome is definitely a great way to explore New Zealand - the purpose of the excercise you might think.

Quite apart from being a sinch to drive (we have on the good authority of Keith), the interior layout offers a spacious living area, home comforts such as TV/DVD, cooker, fridge and tons of storage with each built in commodity being designed to maximise usefulness and minimise obtrusion. Granted, in this 2-berth model, the shower is a tad cosy, but it's there and if you like the idea of getting right off the beaten track into New Zealand's wilderness, such conveniences become, well... very convenient.

And as for the built-in BBQ, frankly what else do you need to complete an Antipodean adventure?

So, all you need to do is choose your route around New Zealand, or indeed Australia- be that following a well-trodden path or venturing into lesser travelled regions - and we'll take care of the rest.

Imagine exploring the untouched beaches of Eastland, cruising along the Taranakicoast or venturing deep into Southland discovering the wildlife-rich wilds of the Catlins.

Happy camping!
