Adventure is calling as The Scottish Caravan, Motorhome & Holiday Home Show makes its grand return on Thursday, February 6th at the SEC, Glasgow (until 9th February).

The Enchanted Map of Scotland, a unique collaboration between the show and lead Scottish tourism guide and influencer, Andy The Highlander, unveils a treasure trove of must-visit destinations, each beholding its own legends, myths and dark secrets waiting to be discovered. From the home of Scotland’s favourite beastie Nessie and captivating castles with dark legends, to mist-laden peaks, the map invites visitors to dream big and plan their perfect Scottish getaway to unique areas.
The collaboration with Andy The Highlander comes as the quest for enigmatic destinations continues to rise amongst travellers. Searches for ‘mysterious places on earth’, ‘ancient cities’ and ‘beautiful places in the world’ have been popular amongst those looking for inspiration for their next trip*, and with an ancient history steeped in mystery and allure, Scotland is the perfect place to escape and discover otherworldly locations.
As the biggest show of its kind in Scotland, The Scottish Caravan, Motorhome and Holiday Home Show showcases the best brands, latest models and widest selection of flexible travel options from the country’s leading suppliers, and looks to encourage people from across the UK to explore alternative ways to travel in a comfortable and sustainable way.
Jillyanne Lamarra, Show Manager, said: “Scotland is packed full of adventure options, so much so, it can be hard to know where to start when picking your route. Our magical map is a celebration of Scotland’s unparalleled charm and diversity, encouraging travellers to embrace the freedom and joy of exploration while supporting sustainable tourism.
"We can’t wait to welcome people to the show to experience the huge amount of versatile travel options our amazing exhibitors have, and perhaps find their new preferred way to travel Scotland and uncover its fascinating history – or enjoy a walk on the beach followed by some fresh fish and chips – the options are endless.
“This year we will be revealing our first Accessible Holiday Home with our partners Border Caravans in a move to improve the travel industry’s accessibility options which until now have been limited. In addition, we will be bringing back our Farmer’s Market with a smorgasbord of delicious food and drink from local suppliers, an e-bike testing area, huge accessory store, Kids Zone and a climbing wall.”
Andy the Highlander, Scottish tourism expert and folklore fanatic is known for his kilted adventures and unmatched passion for Scotland. He said: “People travel far and wide to come to Scotland looking to experience for themselves the magic which lies in our history and landscapes. It was great working with the Scottish Caravan, Motorhome and Holiday Home Show to create this unique map which I know will help people better select the places they should add to their Scottish itinerary.
“I believe there is no better way to see our beautiful country than to immerse yourself in its landscape – and what better way to do that than to travel by caravan, motorhome or book a holiday home. I can’t wait to see the range of options at this year’s show.”
Whether you’re an experienced adventurer or embarking on your first caravan journey, this year’s show (6-9th February) promises to spark your imagination and equip you with the tools to turn your travel dreams into reality.
