Why hire a campervan or motorhome in England

England — a region worth exploring

England's Jurassic Coast stretches 95 miles along the southern shoreline, exposing 185 million years of geological history and holding UNESCO World Heritage status since 2001. From the rolling hills of the Cotswolds to the rugged peaks of the Lake District, this country packs an extraordinary range of landscapes into a relatively compact area. The drive from London to the Lake District covers around 260 miles, while the journey from Bath to the Yorkshire Dales spans roughly 230 miles — both routes offering constantly changing scenery. Landmarks like Stonehenge, Canterbury Cathedral, Hadrian's Wall, and the white cliffs of Dover each tell a different chapter of England's long story. Narrow country lanes wind through villages with thatched-roof pubs, and coastal roads hug clifftops with views across the English Channel. For campervan travellers, the variety is a real draw: you can wake up beside a Cornish beach one morning and park near a Northumberland castle the next. Motorhome-friendly aires and campsites are spread right across the country, from Devon to Durham. With Yescapa, you can hire directly from local owners based throughout England, choosing from a wide selection of vehicles to match your trip. The peer-to-peer model means you'll often find a campervan or motorhome available close to where you want to start, making it easy to hit the road without a long transfer.

Best time to visit

England welcomes campervan travellers from spring right through to autumn, with each season bringing its own appeal. May and June offer long daylight hours and wildflower-covered countryside, ideal for exploring the Cotswolds or the South Downs. Summer is peak season, when events like the Glastonbury Festival in late June and the Notting Hill Carnival in August bring extra energy to the calendar. September and October reward with golden foliage across the Lake District and quieter roads. Yescapa's peer-to-peer model often means more competitive rates outside July and August, so booking a shoulder-season trip can be a smart move. Plan ahead for bank holiday weekends, when popular routes fill up quickly.

The best road trips in England

To help you plan your trip, we have selected six unmissable road trips, suitable for all travelers.

The Cornish Coast

250 km 3–6 days

Start in Newquay and follow the coastline through St Ives, Land's End and Penzance to Falmouth. Over roughly 250 km, you'll pass surf beaches, fishing villages and dramatic clifftops. Narrow lanes make this route ideal for a campervan. Coastal campsites with ocean views are plentiful along the way.

Cotswolds to Devon Coast

400 km 5–8 days

This 400 km route links the Cotswolds with the Devon coastline. Start in Bourton-on-the-Water, drive through Bath and Glastonbury, then continue to Exeter and the coast at Exmouth. Honey-coloured villages, Roman baths and rolling green hills accompany the journey. A campervan handles the narrow Cotswolds village lanes with ease.

The Yorkshire Dales Loop

200 km 3–6 days

From York, this 200 km loop winds through the Yorkshire Dales via Skipton, Hawes and Richmond. Open moorland, limestone valleys and historic market towns define the route. Roads are well-maintained and suitable for a motorhome. Stop at the Ribblehead Viaduct and walk to Aysgarth Falls for a memorable break.

The Northumberland Coast

450 km 5–8 days

Start in Newcastle upon Tyne and drive 450 km along the Northumberland coast to the Scottish border, returning via Hadrian's Wall. Visit Bamburgh Castle, the Holy Island of Lindisfarne and the Farne Islands. Wide beaches and quiet roads make this a relaxed motorhome route through one of England's most peaceful stretches of coastline.

Lake District and the Northwest Coast

600 km 7–11 days

This 600 km tour starts in Manchester and heads through Lancaster into the Lake District, visiting Keswick, Windermere and Kendal before reaching Morecambe Bay. Mountain passes, deep lakes and picturesque villages alternate throughout. Some passes are narrow, so a campervan is the better choice here. Plan stops at Derwentwater and in Ambleside for walking and local food.

The Grand England Tour

700 km 10–15 days

Start in London and drive through Canterbury, Brighton and the Jurassic Coast to Cornwall. From there, head through the Cotswolds, the Peak District and the Yorkshire Dales to Durham — roughly 700 km in total. This tour showcases England's full variety, from coastline and rolling hills to open moorland. A motorhome provides the comfort needed for this longer journey across the country.

What you need to know about roads and motorways in England

England's motorway network is toll-free on most routes, with the notable exception of the M6 Toll near Birmingham. Speed limits for motorhomes over 3.05 tonnes are 60 mph on motorways and 50 mph on single carriageways, so keep that in mind when planning journey times. The M1, M5, and M6 form the main north–south corridors, while the M4 connects London to Wales via Bristol. Motorway service stations appear regularly and most have dedicated parking bays for larger vehicles. On rural A-roads and B-roads, especially in areas like Cornwall and the Lake District, lanes can narrow significantly — a campervan under 6 metres handles these comfortably, while larger motorhomes may need to plan routes carefully using sat-nav set to avoid narrow roads.
