As part of an inclusive community of outdoor enthusiasts, you'll experience camping from a new perspective - whether you're cooking or sleeping under the stars, catching a rooftop sunset, or embracing spontaneous trips. The Club offers over 150 UK Club campsites that welcome roof tents and it’s also launched its best range of promotions in the Club’s history with 10 percent off selected stays this spring, autumn and winter, £25 off summer getaways and tour for less offers, kids aged 5-17 stay for £1, under 5s and dogs stay for free. For those wishing to adventure overseas, discover over 350 Club-approved campsites with lowest prices guaranteed on European campsites and crossings.

Roof tents are easy to set-up and provide a great alternative to traditional ground tents. When you stay on a Club campsite with your roof tent you will be pitched with other like-minded tourers and leisure vehicles, rather than in a camping field, so you will have all the amenities you need close by. Elevated camping with a roof tent is so easy, there’s no need for poles, pegs and blow up beds. It only takes minutes to set up a roof tent and then you can sit back and enjoy the perks of elevated camping and the views it offers. With costs starting from just a few hundred pounds for a new roof tent, this really is an accessible option for outdoor enthusiasts.

Roof tent manufacturer TentBox saw a 100% growth in their roof tent community in 2024 proving this is a rapidly expanding and hugely popular sector and leisure vehicle option.

Harvey Alexander, director of marketing and membership services at the Caravan and Motorhome Club says, "Going away with a roof tent means you can wake up with the sunrise and enjoy the great outdoors when you pitch-up across 16 countries with the Club. Club campsites offer all the facilities adventurers will need after a day exploring so they can relax in the knowledge that all they need to do is enjoy their time away and build lasting memories."

Whether you enjoy venturing off the beaten path or simply enjoy a spontaneous last minute escape, discover stunning locations across the UK with the Caravan and Motorhome Club and save £15 per night.

Alexander continues, "Existing Club members can encourage their friends and family to join in and tour with them in a roof tent. Roof tents are welcome on Club campsites and provide an accessible entry into this pastime. The Club also offers members a 10% saving on TentBox roof tents when purchased through the Club shop. Roof tents are increasingly popular and when on a car or van they are one of the lowest cost ways of starting this incredible touring lifestyle and being a part of the Club community. Your cosy sleeping accommodation is fixed to your car’s roof rack and simply unfolded on site. Potential benefits over traditional camping include a quick set-up process, a flat floor and greater protection from the cold, mud and damp."
