Explore The UK With Your Pooch: Volkswagen's New Canine Campervan Guide
Volkswagen Commercial Vehicles is launching its Canine Campervan Guide to coincide with National Dog Day on 26 August. This guide aims to inspire UK families, especially those planning a staycation, to embark on pet-friendly adventures. According to a recent survey, 55% of UK families are considering holidaying within the country this year.
The guide offers practical advice for dog owners planning campervan trips. It includes tips on packing essentials like a lead, seatbelt harness, dog bed, towel, portable water bowl, food, and toys. Ensuring dogs are comfortable and secure during travel is emphasised, with recommendations for using seatbelt harnesses or crates.

Volkswagen's guide also highlights lesser-known dog-friendly destinations perfect for summer exploration. It encourages frequent rest breaks and hydration stops to keep pets comfortable. The guide aims to make travelling with pets easier and more enjoyable for families.
Volkswagen campervans are ideal for these adventures due to their spacious and adaptable interiors. The Volkswagen California 6.1 features a fully-fitted kitchen and can comfortably sleep four people. Its flexible interior includes a folding bench seat and swivelling front seats, along with integrated accessories like a stowable camping table and chairs.
The larger Grand California model offers even more home comforts on the road. It includes a transverse bed for two adults, an optional over-cab bed for children, a built-in wet room, and a fully-fitted kitchen. Clever details like an external temperature-controlled shower make it easy to clean up after outdoor activities.
The survey conducted by OnePoll in December 2023 found that many UK holidaymakers plan activities such as walking (69%) or hiking (24%) during their staycations. This makes campervans an attractive option for those wanting to explore the outdoors with their pets.
