Equipment for Travelling within the UK for your 2020 Holiday

  • October 30, 2020
  • Jules

When traveling within the UK you aren’t restricted by the usual 20kg luggage capacity that comes with flying abroad, this allows UK holiday goers to be more equip with the all the things they’ll need to make their holiday in the UK just as good as going abroad.

Along with this, travel restrictions that are present in 2020 are leading many UK residents turning their hand to a staycation, a holiday in the country they are most familiar with of all.

Here are the essential items you will need to ensure that your holiday in the UK will provide the much-needed getaway that you’ve been after.

Essential Clothing and Outdoor Wear

When you go for a holiday in the UK you can expect all types of weather, if you live in the UK you’ll know the unpredictability of the weather and how important it is to pack your waterproofs and warm jackets.

Your packing doesn’t need to be an endless pile of wellies, waterproof bottoms and cagoules, however, we recommend packing one set of waterproofs that you can rely on in case you plan on doing outdoor activities on an especially rainy day.

However, it’s not all doom and gloom, make sure to pack your light and more fashionable clothing for those days with clear skies and less mud, along with the evenings where you wish to go out and look your best.

Camping Equipment

Many UK holiday goers enjoy camping during their trip or choose to stay in a caravan holiday park, for these types of holidays it is essential to bring all the equipment you will need to provide for yourself, an enjoyable contrast from the classic all inclusive hotel where self-sufficiency is at the least of priorities.

For your camping holiday you will of course need to bring your tent, sleeping bags, pillows, and camping chairs. Make sure you invest in buying or renting a good quality tent that will be big enough and protect you from the outside elements, such as wind, rain and cold weather.

For many camping and caravan holidays, electricity is very much a luxury. If you wish to charge electrical items or use electrical equipment such as an electric cooker or kettle, you will need to find out which generator you should buy and bring it along to your camping holiday.

Grooming and Hygiene

Travelling in the UK brings the only luggage restriction of what you can fit in the boot of your car, leaving you the freedom to bring all the hygiene and grooming products that you would normally use at home.

Being outside in the colder elements will need for a good moisturiser to keep your skin moisturised to prevent dryness and unhealthy skin during your holiday.

With much less limit to what you can bring, for women, this allows you to bring all the essential makeup products you use when going out at home, shampoos and conditioners to keep your hair nourished and healthy while you are on holiday. For men, bring along your best hair grooming products, deodorants, and razors to keep you looking sharp during your UK holiday.
