There are several. However I suspect that, since most have forums and thus compete with this site, the admins of this forum might moderate any links. That said, a Google search for wild camping motorhome will return many of them.

I recently read an article in my Dads Practical Caravan mag (Aug edition I think) about a family who travelled to between some of the Scottish Islands and basically set up their caravan at the side of the beach/road/field and used beach toilets, local hostels for showers and water etc.......not my kind of caravan holiday and I would not feel safe going to bed at night to be honest. Each to their own though I guess!

The feeling safe bit is probably the primary concern of those who have never tried it, but in reality, you are very rarely alone, If you find a good spot, by 9pm or so, you will have been joined by like minded folks and the comradery between you is usually much more so than you find on the average campsite.

Folks share information about where they were he night before and where they hope to be the following night.

Wildcampers/caravanners, "Recreational Nomads" , have a common interest in keeping the hobby going and Safety and Knowledge are key elements in doing that.
