At Cadeside, (Wellington, Somerset) there are only 16 pitches in total. Last Saturday 14 of the 15 were occupied of which 5 were motor homes and 10 were caravans, a 2 : 1 ratio in favour of caravans.
We were on the Hebden Bridge site last week and the proportion was the same, 2 caravans to 1 motorhome. The site was about half full at the time, and that was midweek. I would suspect that the proportion would change over the weekend with a greater percentage of caravans to M/Hs.

I did see an article saying motorhome sales were up 20% this year but the caravan manufacturers all seemed to be reporting similar sales increases so not sure the proportion has changed a lot.
It all depends whether the new units are being bought to replace an old one or if it's a first time buy. Perhaps the ratio is the same but without the actual facts we'll never know.
