I was going to suggest South Wales

Beautiful mountains, stunning beaches, great roads, full breakfast for £3, etc

But quite frankly, it's far too nice down here to allow you horrible motorhoming types in :)

We did 1200miles from Norfolk to West Country last Oct/Nov, spending 25 nights at an average of £12pn for sites.

Salisbury Carnival [CCC site, 20 Oct last year].
Brean Sands [THS]
Pentewan Sands [Cornwall MCS]
Various sites back along the coast to Exeter
Bridgewater Carnival [Morrisons carpark for £10 overnight BUT do not arrive before 1pm (or was it 3pm?)]
Unity Resort [THS] - local carnivals (5-12 Nov?)
Add in a couple of BritStops and some fine weather and we had a good time (although it tipped it down for Bridgewater BUT the fuel was cheap)

Come to France, you know it makes sense. Download Camper Contact and do just what you want when you are across the channel. Find a site and chill or use the aires, many free, and cover thousands of Km or just do ten Km each day but be somewhere different.

enjoyed the freedom over the last couple of years but still Wish we could have got away more often
Did our first trip to Spain and can’t wait to go back.

Weather so unpredictable in October, can be lovely or really horrid but if you book to go to Europe you can travel south until you find the weather that suits you.

Can’t wait to be able to escape the UK winter, sorry

Www.ventusky.com is your friend.
10 days European map heat forecast.
Pretty accurate and you can plan from that.
We missed the massive heat this year just based on that and we are back out at end of month with germany in mind but quite willing and able to shift about for better weather.
Currently brittany with a sedate 28 that you can still walk about in ..... just
