The first known "camper" made by a Scottish man was a horse-drawn touring caravan, the Wanderer, commissioned by Dr. Gordon Stables in 1884. This pioneering vehicle was conceived as a "home on wheels," though it faced challenges with its horses and navigation. The idea was later developed into the first practical caravan, the Eccles Motor Caravan, produced in 1919, and the concept of a camper, or motorhome, evolved over time, with the term "campervan" becoming popular later.
