Broad Lane Leisure

One of the best known names in the business, Broad Lane Leisure has a pedigree that harks back over 50 years and it’s been with the Brown family since its inception.

Broad Lane’s Warwickshire branches at Kenilworth and Alcester are run by Steve and Darren Brown respectively, sons of company founder, Colin.

As they like to say, ‘Your experience with Broad Lane doesn’t end when you drive off our forecourt. We are always here to support you, should you ever need it.’

A long-term agent for Swift and Coachman caravans (take a look at our best caravan brand guide to find out more about them), Broad Lane Leisure has also had considerable success over many years with its own Fairway range, made exclusively for it by the former.

A more recent addition to its new caravans portfolio is the Hymer’s Group’s Eriba brand of iconic tourers.

Both branches have well-stocked accessories shops and service centres that are part of the National Caravan Council’s Approved Workshop Scheme.

Nick’s first caravanning memory is his younger brother falling out of the bunk bed above him. That was over half a century ago. Around a decade later, his first driving experience was taking the family campervan across a field on his uncle’s farm. He’s now well into his fourth decade as a journalist specialising across the whole leisure vehicle sector. In that time, he’s worked for a wide variety of publications, testing literally thousands of vehicles and visiting almost as many different places throughout the UK, Europe and even beyond. These days, he’s never happier than when he’s out reviewing new/pre-owned/motorhomes/caravans/researching and writing touring articles for Practical Caravan and Practical Motorhome. Or, failing that, you may well find him pitching near you in his latest campervan, a Volkswagen California (more often than not with his short, suffering partner, Lin, and crazy sprocker spaniel, Bonnie).
