Motor-homes are increasingly seen as an excellent way to discover areas that are off the beaten track.
You are able to save considerably on any accommodation costs during your holiday.
You also have the flexibility to travel whenever you like, not being reliant on public transport of check-in times for hotels.
Many motor-home enthusiasts also enjoy the fact that they are not restricted in terms of the luggage that they bring.
No surcharges for extra baggage and no panicking with forgetting crucial items in a suitcase.
Instead, you can simply choose when to depart and not be held to meeting check-in times at the airport.
Given this information, it is perhaps not surprising that more and more visitors to Scotland as well as locals looking to discover a different part of the country are trying out travel by motor home.
There are many sparsely populated areas of Scotland and a motor home can be the ideal way in which to discover these rural areas of outstanding natural beauty.
Of course, you do not just need to drive around these parts of the countryside.
The beauty of this mode of travel is that it is quite easy to pack your bicycle or indeed, surfboard! Inland in counties such as Perthshire there are some fantastic roads in which to take your road bike.
Park your vehicle by the side of Loch Tummel for example and set out exploring the back roads - remember your climbing legs though! There are some fantastic climbs for those who fancy themselves as worthy of the polka dot jersey at the Tour de France - The road by Schiehallion, or the climb up Ben Lawers stand out.
You may prefer to use chunkier tyres in which case, your possibilities are virtually endless.
You could drive up to Laggan and get the mountain bikes out for a spin at Laggan Wolftrax, with some epic descents carved in to the surrounding hills.
If you are on the coast (and immune to cold water) you may wish to try the famous waves around the Western Islands or the most northerly tip of the mainland.
Indeed, the northern town of Thurso now can boast the fact that it is an important venue on the pro surf tour with the O'Neil Cold Water Classic being hosted by the town.
Others will prefer a simple pair of walking boots in which to bag a few Munros.
Ben Nevis is easily accessible from Fort William but there are other peaks that are far more remote and having your transport and accommodation rolled in to one will prove hugely advantageous when tackling these peaks.
Indeed, the possibilities are unlimited and with a handy shower available back in the motor home, there is no need to worry about where you can get changed after your sporting activity.
The motorhome provides a real freedom for travel and the good news is that there are a number of dealers that offer very reasonably priced vehicles that will provide many weeks of excellent touring for you and your partner or all the family.
With the flexibility of a camping holiday but without the risk of canvas collapsing, for many the motorhome is the ideal choice in which to enjoy a truly relaxing and inspiring holiday that will long live in the memory.
