History
Caravan magazine was founded by F L M Harris in May 1933 and was first produced from small offices in Colney Heath near St. Albans. It was the Caravan Club's official magazine in the 1930s, and by 1940, Caravan magazine, The National Caravan Council and the Caravan Club all shared the same large house in Purley, South London.
By 1963, the first issue of En Route, the Caravan Club's own magazine, had been published and Caravan magazine, now part of Link House Magazines, moved to new premises in Croydon. In the late 1990s, IPC Media took over Link House Magazines, and Caravan is now published by the IPC Inspire division of IPC Media.
The magazine underwent a redesign in June 2006 and as a result, increased its year-on-year circulation in 2007 by 15.5%, making it the fastest growing magazine in its division.
Victoria Bentley is the editor. She is the first woman ever to edit the title in its 75-year history.
