2026 Trade Show Highlights

The 2026 trade show season saw a change from the usual format. Instead of one central event, manufacturers held separate showcases—ABI, Swift, and Willerby presented their ranges individually, while a smaller group of brands organised a joint event at Cottingham Golf Club. While this fresh approach had its benefits, many of us in the industry, including ourselves, missed the convenience and atmosphere of a traditional, unified show. It also made it harder to see the full range of new models. Despite this, there were plenty of exciting developments. Below is a summary of the key brand updates and product highlights for the 2026 season.

Across the UK, families are being hit hard by the rising cost of housing. Rents are climbing, mortgages are more expensive than ever, and the upfront costs of buying a home are staggering. But while most people are pouring their hard-earned money into landlords, banks, and fees, more and more families are discovering a smarter, more affordable solution: static caravans. At UK Caravan Centre, we’re not just selling caravans – we’re helping families take back control of their finances and their lives.

At UK Caravan Centre, we understand that true independence starts at home—and that home should be both comfortable and accessible. For those with limited mobility, a wheelchair accessible static caravan placed in the garden as an annexe can be a life-changing solution. Whether you’re looking to support a loved one with additional needs or planning for your own future independence, a garden-based annexe offers a unique blend of privacy, freedom, and proximity to family—all without compromising on accessibility.

Owning a holiday home is so much more than four walls. It's about having the freedom to escape, relax, explore and unwind whenever you like. It provides you with the space to create memories with family and friends. But, where do you start? Read our guide below to help you on your journey

If you’re new to the world of static caravans then you’ve probably noticed that there are lots of words and phrases used that might be new to you - or might be used in a different context to what you’re used to. We do our best not to use too much jargon - but sometimes it just can’t be helped.

In recent years, more UK families are turning to multi-generational living as a practical and forward-thinking solution to rising living costs, housing shortages, and the need for greater flexibility in care and support. One of the smartest ways to accommodate this trend is by investing in a multi-generational annexe extension. Whether it's a self-contained garden annexe, a loft conversion, or a reconfigured outbuilding, these spaces offer a wealth of benefits — not only for your family’s current needs, but for the future as well.

Building your dream home is an exciting adventure—but it also comes with the challenge of where to live in the meantime. Whether your current property has already sold or you’re starting from scratch on a plot of land, you'll need a temporary living solution. Two popular options in the UK are buying a static caravan or renting a home nearby. So, which option makes more sense during a self-build project? Let’s break down the pros and cons to help you decide what’s best for your situation.
