Local councils in the UK are encouraged to adopt European-style "aires" - designated parking spaces for motorhomes and campervans. These spaces provide overnight parking with services like water and waste disposal, supporting tourism and benefiting local economies.
The Campaign for Real Aires (CAMpRA) revealed 80% of motorhome owners would visit new areas if these facilities were available. Despite some local resistance, successful trials show increased revenue for communities, highlighting the value of accommodating this growing tourism trend.
