Top 5 Road Trips for 2019

Jan 2019
With over 245,000 miles of road in the UK, there is so much to explore. Where will you go in 2019? We've listed our Top 5 UK Road Trip routes for your travel inspiration.  With campervan rental from as little as £19 a day - why not drive them all!
 1. North East 250 - Scotland
Picture
The North Coast 500 has been a firm Bumble favourite for the last few years but our new tip for 2019 is to explore the North East 250.
The route of the North East 250 explores Scotland's spectacular mountain roads of the Cairngorms, and also takes in whiskey distilleries, castles and coastlines. 

Pick up your Bumble Camper from Manchester and drive North. It is recommended this itinerary should take at least a week but from experience we recommend taking your roadtrip at a more leisurely pace to have time to really experience the beautiful Scottish coastlines.

2. Snake Pass - Peak District
Picture
A 42 mile hill pass through the Derbyshire section of the Peak District.  The route crosses the Pennines between Glossop and Ladybower Reservior.

There is a vast area to explore in and around the Peak District with highlights including Bakewell, Chatsworth House and Ladybower Reservior.

The Peak District is one of the most popular destinations for a #bumblebaout located in the heart of the UK and within a 2 hour drive from both Peterborough and Manchester.


3. Black Mountain Pass - Wales
Picture
The A4069, better known as the Black Mountain Pass was made famous by Top Gear and loved by all driving enthusiasts. The stunning Welsh scenery along the way makes this route a must for a #bumbleabout in 2019.

The Black Mountain Road takes you through the Brecon Beacons National Park and to many campsites in the area for those choosing to extend their stay and explore more.

4. Atlantic Highway - South West England 
Picture
The Atlantic Highway (or A39) is a stretch of road from the border of Devon right through Cornwall offering beautiful beach stops such as Bude and rich history, such as the clifftop castle at Tintagel.

5. Lake District - North England 
Picture



Recently awarded a UNESCO World Heritage Site status, the Lake District is England's largest National Park. Take a few days to explore the Lake District and enjoy the lakeside and hilly scenery on the 48 mile drive between Ambleside and Ullswater. 

Perfect for walking, biking or kayaking there is so much to offer anyone with the love of the outdoors.  And with numerous campsites on offer it is easy to find somewhere to stay in your Bumble Camper.   Popular lakes to visit are Coniston, Ullswater and Windermere.
