5 Things Motorhome Owners Should Stop Buying

What do pineapple bunting, garden hoses, and petrol generators have in common? They’re all on Motorhome Matt’s no-no list. In this episode of the Motorhome Matt Podcast, Matt and Keith share the top five things motorhome owners should stop buying. From unnecessary gadgets to accessories that could do more harm than good, this practical guide will help you avoid common motorhome mistakes and save money on the road.

We also head to one of Spain’s most beautiful—and often overlooked—motorhome campsites. Rob Fearn from Alan Rogers joins us to spotlight Camping Amfora on the Costa Brava. Find out why this Bay of Roses location is ideal for motorhome holidays, with huge pitches, beach access, private facilities and plenty for families to enjoy.

In the Q&A, Matt tackles your real-world motorhome questions. What should you do if your dealer goes bust? How much does a DIY van conversion actually cost? And can you really get decent 4G internet while travelling in Europe?

Whether you’re planning your next big trip or just starting out, this episode is packed with tips, insights, and no-nonsense advice from the UK’s motorhome expert.
