Bamburgh named among most EV-friendly staycation spots in the UK
A Northumberland coastal village has been named as one of the most electric vehicle-friendly staycation spots in the UK.
In a new nationwide study from car insurance provider Ageas, research ranked 100 popular UK towns and villages based on charger availability, rapid charging provision, reliability, cost-efficiency and tourism appeal.
Bamburgh was named the best destination in the country for charging speed, with 100% of the stations analysed offering rapid or ultra rapid charging facilities.
Alan MacEwan, Chief Customer and Operations Office at Ageas UK, commented on the findings.
He said: “As more British motorists make the switch to electric, the Great British staycation is undergoing an exciting transformation. Our study celebrates the towns and villages that are paving the way for the future of travel.
"We want to shine a light on these EV-friendly locations and encourage drivers to explore the UK with confidence.”
Overall, Warwick was named the most EV-friendly, followed by Shanklin and Alfriston.
