The award-winning Basecamp is the perfect crossover camping caravan
Exciting, sporty, fun and stylish… Basecamp is the perfect crossover camping vehicle, created for life’s adventurers.
Whether you’re seeking adrenaline-fuelled activities or just enjoy getting off the beaten track, Basecamp is the perfect place to rest and refuel. Compact and lighter in weight than traditional caravans, the range is easy to tow by most family cars and is easier to manoeuvre once on site.
"Superbly made with lots of equipment and have had a great short break in it already. Very pleased with the purchase and made easy with Highbridge Caravans."
Curt Hamer, September 2022
