Motorhome Holiday: Is this a holiday green?

I wonder what people's opinions are on this: my family is composed of two adults and a child of 4 years of age. We are thinking about motorhome holiday home in the UK and on tour in France and Spain. Our Estimated mileage is about 1800 miles. We intended to hire a motorhome www.motorhomesdirect.co.uk pick in Hertfordshire, UK and then take Dover Calais ferry with Sealink. We are hoping to hire something like a Hymer motorhome with a 2.8L turbo diesel engine. While the use of remote local grocery stores and not always eat and drink local produce. We also have the option of flying to Lanzarote in the Canary Islands (Luton Airport), which is likely to rent a car. In each case the party will last for 3 weeks. We are more concerned than ever about our carbon footprint, but the love of our holiday. We work very hard during the winter and I always feel that we need a holiday. So do you think of the holiday caravan is a greener option?

Well, people says that flying is equivalent to a year in car use, is not it, something about the pollution at high altitudes more damaging than in the soil, etc. There is never a definitive way to decide something, one way or another ... different people come to different results in the calculation of carbon emissions. Say you're planning to travel from village to village to city B to C in a mobile home, then some would say that traveling by car (less fuel) and sleep in B & B is more environmentally friendly, then people would begin to include the washing of bedding in the various B & B in the equation, compared to a set of bed covers that you would be using in their mobile home for the holidays of all. Then people came to pull the chemical toilet in the debate (good image), etc. Since I am deeply convinced that Britain is the most beautiful country on the face of the earth, I have, of course, mention that the greenest holiday for you would be a return home: When you have the last time you went to the Peak District? http://www.visitbritain.co.uk/destinations
