Accessing the web on Caravan and Camping Sites
from web site
Many devices now come with wi-fi access to the internet enabled and can be used to access the internet wherever you're, providing a wi-fi service is within range, so which device is most practical in terms of holidaying in your caravan or motorhome?
PCs and laptops
The most obvious way to connect to the internet is via your personal computer or laptop. They offer the biggest viewable screen and have easily adjustable resolution meaning you will see most websites at their optimum appearance. However, they are also large and take up a considerable amount of space in your 'van, not forgetting adding to the overall weight. They may also pose a risk of security as they are not easily hidden out of sight, giving would-be thieves a reason to break in to your caravan or motorhome.

At the other end of the scale in terms of size, there are mobile phones with internet access. These offer an extremely portable strategy to use online and check your emails and a lot of people already have one. Some websites provide a mobile friendly version of these website in order that viewing online is easier on a smaller screen, however, most websites usually do not. Depending on the mobile phone you have, you may find viewing websites and locating the information you need very difficult on the small screen.
Games consoles and MP3 players
As a compromise you can consider using your games console or MP3 player to access the web. This feature can be acquired on most updated video gaming consoles and mp3 players at the higher end of the market. If you take the children on caravan and motorhome holidays, you will most probably be packing a video gaming console to keep them amused should the weather become changeable, just how about negotiating a while to check on your emails?
If you're planning on accessing the internet whilst on your caravan park, it's worth phoning ahead to see whether wi-fi access can be acquired on your chosen site and whether any charges will be made.
If you're not used to accessing the internet other than on your PC in the home, dig out your instruction manual for the phone or video game system before you set off and familiarise yourself with the way the internet access works.
If you are still unsure, the manufacturer or phone company should have a helpline with trained advisers. Failing that - ask the youngsters!
Remember that all high-value, high-risk items have to be covered on your own household insurance policy, and they should be covered when taken off the home, as it is unlikely that they can be covered on your caravan or motorhome insurance.
