Great British Bake Off star and motorhome fan Karen Wright will join Yorkshire chef Steph Moon on the cookery stage at the Great Holiday Home Show next month.

The show, which is being held in Harrogate for the first time, features the latest holiday homes, caravans and motorhomes and other aspects of life exploring the great outdoors.

Described as the largest outdoor holiday home show in the country, it started in 1976 as The Lawns Show and was previously held in Hull.

A total of 227 holiday homes and 140 caravans and motorhomes will be on display at the Great Yorkshire Showground from September 8 to 10.

Visitors will include Ms Wright, from Wakefield, who was one of 12 contestants on the Great British Bake Off in 2018. She will give top tips for baking in a caravan.

Multi award winning consultant chef and camper van owner Ms Moon will also be there, hosting the cookery theatre throughout the three-day show.

Besides the cookery theatre, there will be the Great Holiday Home Stage hosted by TV Presenter Christine Talbot.

Special guests include Matt Baker, adventurer Andy Torbet, YouTube motorhome family the Roaming Radfords and Peter Wright from Channel 5’s The Yorkshire Vet.

The event is organised by HERCMA (The Hull and East Riding of Yorkshire Caravan Manufacturers' Association), which is a collaboration of four major holiday home manufacturers ABI, Carnaby, Swift and Willerby.

Tickets cost £12.50 and children under 16 go free with an accompanying paying adult.
