Over at Girl About HQ we know just how much fun it can be packing a bag, grabbing the keys to a campervan and heading off with a flexible agenda to see where the road takes you. And autumn might just be one of the loveliest times of year to do it.

As summer crowds begin to disappear and the countryside turns beautiful shades of burnt orange, gold and red, it’s the perfect excuse to escape for a few days and enjoy a little freedom on the open road. Imagine waking up beside a peaceful lake, pulling on your walking boots for a crisp morning walk through the woods, or finding a cosy country pub for Sunday lunch before heading back to your campervan as the evening draws in.
