Bikers pitch up

If you like to get away for the weekend, and struggle to find bike-friendly campsites, a new addition to www.pitchup.com may be of interest. The campsite has started listing motorcycle friendly sites and accommodation.

There are currently more than 40 motorcycle-friendly campsites around the UK listed on the site where bikers have no need to worry about disturbing the peace. Daniel Yates, managing director of Pitchup.com, says, “The depth of search on the site is its most unique feature, as there are multiple search options for holidaymakers to carefully select the campsite or holiday park that meets their needs best. 

“When we first launched the website in July last year, we didn’t realise how hard it was for bikers to find a place to stay. As soon as this was brought to our attention by users we knew it would be useful, so we rapidly implemented a search function.” 

To make the journey to the campsite even easier, Pitchup has also joined forces with TomTom so bikers can navigate quickly to motorcycle friendly campsites and holiday parks.
