Why choose Birmingham for your road trip

Birmingham — a city worth exploring

Birmingham's Bullring has been a market site for over 800 years, making it one of the oldest trading areas in England. Today, the city blends industrial heritage with a thriving cultural scene that rewards exploration on four wheels. The Jewellery Quarter, responsible for around 40% of all British jewellery production, sits just north of the centre and offers independent workshops and galleries. Head to the Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery for one of the finest Pre-Raphaelite collections in the world, or stroll along the Birmingham Canal Navigations — the city actually has more kilometres of canal than Venice. Families will enjoy Thinktank Birmingham Science Museum, while foodies can browse the stalls at Birmingham Smithfield Market. Warwick Castle lies just 35 km to the south, and the Peak District National Park begins roughly 80 km to the north, giving you easy access to rolling countryside and scenic driving routes. The road network around Birmingham is well suited to larger vehicles, with wide dual carriageways and clearly signed ring roads. Hiring a campervan or motorhome through Yescapa connects you with local owners across the West Midlands, so you can pick up your vehicle close to where you need it. A campervan rented from a Birmingham-based owner means less driving before the adventure even starts.

Best time to visit

Birmingham welcomes visitors year-round, with each season offering something different. Late spring and summer, from May to September, bring long daylight hours ideal for exploring the canals and parks by campervan. The Birmingham International Dance Festival takes place in June, filling the city with outdoor performances. In October, the Birmingham Literature Festival draws book lovers from across the country. Hiring through Yescapa gives you access to peer-to-peer pricing, often more flexible than traditional rental companies, especially during quieter months from November to March. Book ahead for the summer period to secure the best choice of motorhome or campervan from local Birmingham owners.

Where to park your motorhome

Birmingham has several car parks and designated areas that can accommodate larger vehicles. Overnight parking in a motorhome or campervan on public streets is generally permitted where no restrictions apply, but always check local signage. The city centre has height-restricted multi-storeys, so plan ahead and use open-air car parks or park-and-ride facilities on the outskirts for taller vehicles. Arriving early on weekdays helps secure a suitable space.

  • Star City Car Park, 3km northeast — Large open-air car park near the entertainment complex with no height restrictions, suitable for motorhomes and campervans.
  • Birmingham NEC Car Parks, 13km southeast — Spacious open-air parking at the National Exhibition Centre with ample room for larger vehicles. Convenient for accessing the M42 motorway.
  • Cannon Hill Park Car Park, 4km south — Open-air car park next to Cannon Hill Park and MAC Birmingham. Height barrier may apply on some sections — check signage on arrival.

Excellente location, tout s’est bien déroulé. Nous étions avec deux enfants c’était top pour parcourir l’Andalousie !! Nous avons malheureusement une crevaison est il ont été très réactif . Un grand merci !

A super - first - campervan trip! As it was our first experience to rent a camper we had many questions which were very promptly and clearly answered. When we collect the camper, Eline and Ido made us feel very welcome and took much time to explain how everything worked and how to get the best out off the van. We found the camper very easy to drive (we did quite some km that week!) - everything worked well and we found the (longways) beds very comfortable. It was an ideal vehicle for our 2 person trip. The trip went seamlessly and we had a great time. Ideal camper from ideal "hosts"! Would very much recommend.

zeer fijne camper om mee rond te trekken. bij ophalen een zeer uitgebreide uitleg gekregen en er is een boekwerk in de auto met alle praktische zaken. en mocht het dan nog niet lukken dan kun je de eigenaar appen en je krijgt zeer snel duidelijk uitleg. een aanrader dus

De communicatie met Bert verloopt erg prettig, de overdracht zowel bij ophalen als bij het terug brengen van de camper is erg prettig. En last but not least; wat een leuke camper, van alle gemakken voorzien en rijd super! Zeker een aanrader!

Ruben
5 / 5

An absolutely brilliant experience from start to finish, and I can't recommend Gertjan and his camper highly enough. Communication was a real highlight. Gertjan was happy to chat the whole way through, which made everything so easy, and he was wonderfully flexible and relaxed about pickup and drop-off rather than being strict on timing. He even collected me from Ljubljana airport and drove me back at the end of the trip. He's also a car mechanic, and honestly that gave me huge peace of mind. It's one thing to rent a van that looks good, but knowing it was in genuinely excellent mechanical shape meant I never had a single worry on the road. And the van itself completely surprised me. It's a nineties VW California, so you might expect a bit less comfort, but the opposite is true. It's a fantastic drive, smooth and confidence inspiring even over the Vršič pass, and it's clearly been looked after beautifully. It has everything you could need: a two burner gas hob, a fridge that worked perfectly, comfortable bedding, and a layout that's genuinely easy to switch from driving mode to sleeping mode and back. It made ten days of solo travel through Bled, Bohinj, Bovec and Kobarid feel effortless. One lovely thing to know is that Gertjan is a real people person who clearly cares about his guests. He'll happily talk you through everything and share his enthusiasm, and you can tell the van and the whole experience really matter to him. Thank you Gertjan for an unforgettable trip. I'd rent from you again in a heartbeat.

Prima camper. Alles aanwezig wat je nodig hebt. Watertank niet nodig gehad. Let op bij camperplaats. Vw is niet zelfvoorzienend (geen toilet) dus campings zijn ok of camperplaats met camping voorzieningen. Vriendelijke eigenaar die je altijd om raad kunt vragen. We hebben een heerlijke week gehad.
