When you’re heading down to the stunning coastlines of Devon and Cornwall, the last thing you want is to begin your holiday stressed, cramped, and buried under bags. With winding country lanes, long travel times, and enough gear to pack for a beach, country, and countryside holiday in one, you’ll thank yourself for one essential addition—a roof box.
At West Midlands Roof Box Hire, we make sure your journey to the South West is as smooth and enjoyable as the holiday itself. Here’s how we help families like yours make the most of their Devon and Cornwall adventure.
Why Devon and Cornwall Are Top UK Holiday Spots
Devon and Cornwall have long been a favourite for families, couples, and adventurers. With sandy beaches, rugged coastlines, quaint villages, and some of the best cream teas in the country, these counties offer a true escape from the everyday.
Whether it’s:
- Bodyboarding in Newquay
- Exploring Dartmoor National Park
- Paddleboarding in Salcombe
- Walking the cliffs of the Lizard Peninsula
- Enjoying a pasty in Padstow
—you’ll likely be packing for all kinds of weather and adventure. That’s where we come in.
How a Roof Box Transforms Your Journey
Let’s face it: UK holidays usually require a lot of gear. Whether it’s wet weather clothes, beach toys, walking boots, or coolers for picnics, your car boot fills up fast. Add in kids, the dog, and your suitcases, and suddenly space becomes a premium.
A roof box solves all of that:
- Free up space in the car for a more comfortable ride.
- Pack larger or awkward items like folding chairs, travel cots, or bodyboards.
- Avoid rearview obstructions that make long drives more stressful.
- Protect your luggage from the unpredictable British weather.
Our customers regularly tell us they couldn’t believe how much easier their journey became after using one of our roof boxes.
