News

Happy Halloween Month!

Hope you are all enjoying the transition from Autumn to Winter… it was 2 degrees this morning when I left the house.

I have some sad news to share - Freedom Caravans will not be exhibiting at the Motorhome and Caravan Exhibition this month. Due to IT issues we were unable to get our application in on time and there are strict deadlines for these exhibitions. We were holding out for a vacant spot to become available but with less than a week to go this now seems very unlikely. I cannot remember a year where we have not been at the exhibition and winning awards. As Arnie Schwarzenegger once said, “I’ll be back!” in October 2025 .

Don’t fret - we will be exhibiting at the Camping and Caravanning Exhibition (NEC) in February, plus, for the first time in nearly six years, Freedom Caravans (Head Office) will be exhibiting at the Scottish Caravan Show, also in February.  More details will be given closer to the time as and when we know more.

I am excited to also announce our new partnership with Leisure Care (Midlands) Ltd which is now the authorised caravan engineer for Freedom Caravans Limited. The large indoor workshop in Rugeley can house up to five caravans at a time but be warned there is a delicious little café next door that sells the BEST bacon butties.

Ryan (an NCC Approved engineer) and the team already have a wealth of knowledge about our caravans and already are receiving glowing reviews:

“Had a new door fitted today, plus bought a new roof liner and other bits to put my caravan right....

Thanks go to:

Jim at Freedom for his knowledge, plus supplying the parts and persevering to get me the door.

And Leisure Care for their hard work in fitting the door and helpful suggestions.” Mr Raymond Gray, October 2024.

        ***Leisure Care (Midlands) website is currently in production***

 Finally, I would like to address some fake news that is circulating on a Facebook Group page. Freedom Caravans do not and has never approached customers on social media sites to buy their caravans. We only buy caravans from customers that contact us directly. We would rather you enjoy and make memories with your Freedom Caravan for as long as you can .

April 2024

Spring is finally here after what feels like a long long Winter! The next few months will be busy for us with new customers collecting their caravans ready for the season. We are due not one, not two, but three factory deliveries in the next weeks as caravanners get ready for the long awaited caravanning season. 

You may of noticed our absence at the February 2024 Camping and Caravanning Exhibition. This year we decided to have an Open Day at our premises to celebrate 40 years in business (1984 - 2024). Customers who came along to the Open Day were greeted with a nice hot drink and hot beef roll and of course got to see all our caravans.  The new Camp Tec Air Awning and Annexe proved such a hit we decided to add it free of charge to all 2024 Freedom Caravans! 

We even had some budding artists in residence. We particularly liked this design :)

March was also the month of some fabulous reviews in the most prestigious caravanning magazines:

1)  The Camping and Caravanning Club Magazine (March 2024). Glowing review of our Freedom Carpento 410.

2) The Caravan Magazine (February 2024 issue) included the Freedom Carpento 310 in its "Focus on Micro Tourers" article

February 2024

Look out for our Northern dealer, Caravans North, at the Camping and Caravanning exhibtion (hall 5)  this month.  Neil and team kindly agreed to be the face of our brand at the exhibtion this year.  They have been a part of Freedom Caravans for many years and have excellent knowledge of our products.  Customers will receive the same benefits and  rewards as buying directly from us, so pop in and say hello.

December 2023

It's the end of a fabulous year as we close our doors for 2023. We  have some really exciting plans for 2024 so please keep up to date with this website or our Facebook Page.

We would like to wish all our customers a Merry Christmas and New Year. We will be closed for the festive break from 5.30 Thursday 21 December and will be back to work Tuesday 2 January 2024.

Kindest regards,

The team at Freedom Caravans.

September 2023

A cheeky September post before the exhibition month starts in October. 

The Air Awning for the Freedom Carpento Range has now been successfully produced by our supplier, Bradcot UK. We had a chance to put this awning up on a Freedom Carpento 360 and it looks stunning!  A word to the wise, we highly recommend using an electric or battery operated pump when erecting the Air Awning. This is to ensure the correct pressure is applied to the bladder tube to enable it to fix to the caravan.  

Earlier this month we handed over our first ever ALL ELECTRIC  Freedom Carpento 410. 

• Thetford topline 902 electric induction hob (twin)
• Truma 14L electric boiler (hot water)
• 100W solar panels (4)
• Truma Saphire electric air conditioning and heater
• ECOFLOW power bank (customer's own)

February 2023

Two successful exhibitions were completed in February 2023. 

Firstly, the Scottish exhibition in which our Northern dealer, Caravans North, was representing us.  We always enjoy a "Freedom" road trip north of the border and always get a welcoming response in Scotland.  

Next it was the highly anticipated Caravan, Camping and Motorhome Show at the NEC. We had been given a heads up that this would be a sell out but WOW!  It was busy busy busy!

Lots of great feedback from our customers , both old and new.  Lots of surprise when we revealed it was only £500 deposit to secure a Freedom from our Classic Range and that unlike our competitors we have made sure we have stock available for the upcoming season.

January 2023

Happy 2023 everybody!

We had a great start to the year with the news that Freedom has been named as one of the ten best caravan manufacturers / brands in the UK.  We would like to say thank you to Practical Caravan Magazine for recognising our brand and including it in their top ten. 

Freedom named as one of the ten best caravan brands.

The Freedom Carpento 410 was also shortlisted in two of the Practical Caravan Awards 2023 (Best Caravan under £25,000 and Best Caravan for Families).  This is as well as  winning the 2023 Innovation Award at the Caravan and Motohome Club Lightweight Leisure Trailer Awards.  

The first batch of the Freedom Air Awnings have been distributed to our customers, ready for the new season ahead.  We do apologise for the delay in production;  there are world wide material supply issues at the moment which are out of our control but it seems there is a corner turned, just in time for Spring.

December 2022

We cannot believe this is the last post of 2022, it has flown by!  This year has been really productive with the introduction of our new range;  the Freedom Carpento. We showcased at three exhibitons in 2022 and the feedback and customer orders have been fantastic  - thank you all so much.

The month of December is often notoriously quiet in the leisure industry but this year seems to be an exception with caravan deliveries still arriving and customer collections happening right up to Christmas.  

Our director went overseas last month to view a new range of caravans and has since been working on the introduction of the Freedom Wayfarer Range which will see Freedom venture into the larger caravan market. These caravans will still be very light relative to their size. We are hoping to have all marketing live for the Wayfarer Range in January 2023.  

We will be turning the lights off midday on Friday 23rd December and will be back at our desks Tuesday 3rd January 2023.  Your Caravan Shop will still be taking orders but there will be a slightly longer delivery time due to potential postage distruption over the festive period so please bare with us.

To all our  wonderful customers, have a jolly Christmas and a fabulous New Year!  

love from all of us at Freedom Caravans X

November 2022

Thank you to everyone that visited our stand at the exhibition, we had a fabulous time and welcomed lots of new customers. One of the highlights was the Motorhome and Caravan Lightweight Trailer Awards 2023. We won two awards - one for the Freedom Microlite Sport and one for the Freedom Carpento 410.  

The Innovation Award is especially special as all caravans entered into all categories were judged - and we won with the Freedom Carpento 410!

Earlier this week we waved goodbye to a lovely couple who are about to embark on a trip of a lifetime around France and Spain in their Freedom Carpento 410. Watch this space for photos.

October 2022

We spent the weekend perfecting our stand at the Motorhome & Caravan Show. It really is a great experience to witness a large bare room be converted into a wonderful exhibition hall with various stands. The planning of each individual stand is rather intricate with every corner requiring authorisation before being erected. We have the Jetstream Twin Sport Flare, Jetstream First Class , Microlite Sport Flare and the three Freedom Carpentos on display on our stand 12.195 in hall 12.  Our Northern Dealer, Caravans North, have the Sunseeker Classic and Microlight Discovery on display on their stand in hall 11. Just look for the Freedom flags :) 

We have mentioned it on our Facebook page but thought it may be worth mentioning again that all our display stock is exhibited at the show so if you want to visit our premises to view the caravans please do so after Tuesday 25 October 2022 when we will be back at our head office.

Have a great show everyone - we're looking forward to meeting you.

HALL 12, STAND 12.195

It is now less than a month until the October 2022 Motorhome and Caravan Show at the National Exhibition Centre (NEC) in Birmingham. We have really missed the exhibition the last two Octobers as it is a lovely chance to get to know new customers, chat to our valued existing customers and catch up on the industry gossip with the other exhibiters. 

This year will be our largest EVER stand and we will have the Freedom Carpento range as well as our Freedom Caravans range on display.  We are also extremely lucky to have our North and South Freedom Dealers at the exhibition too. This means wherever you are in the United Kingdom you can have access to an authorised Freedom dealer and Freedom servicing centre.

At the February 2022 exhibition we were delighted by the number of visitors to our stand that had an electric vehicle.  Our caravans are perfect for this market due to their lightweight shells and towing weights. 

There will be a fantastic show offer on any purchase of a 2023 caravan from Freedom so make sure you swing by stand 12.195 in Hall 12. We also have a limited number of 2021 and 2022 models in stock for purchase now or at the exhibition.  The benefit of a 2021 or 2022 model is no waiting time...! Just give us a call. 

Well, that's all for now folks!  We have two more deliveries arriving this week so busy, busy!

May 2022

We are proud to be asked to exhibit at the first ever Lifestyle Exhibition to be held in May 2022 at the Telford International Arena. Telford is a fantastic location for an exhibiton as it is the gateway  to Wales and easily accessible for North and South England. 

We will be bringing our entire Freedom Range as well as our newly launched Freedom Carpento range. After the outstanding reception we received at the NEC in February we are super excited to see what this new exhibiton will hold.

If you are traveling with your caravan to the show there are some lovely campsites in the area; one of our favourites is www.lovetostay.co.uk that has it's own natural eco-pool.
