Generally, no — in England and Wales wild camping without landowner permission is usually unlawful. In Scotland, the Scottish Outdoor Access Code permits responsible wild camping in many areas, though restrictions and local byelaws may apply.
As wild camping (free camping) laws can vary in the UK, it pays to check in advance to find out the rules and regulations for the area you’re planning on travelling to. In England and Wales, it is illegal without prior approval, but in Scotland, for example, the laws can be much more relaxed.
Campsites are widely available in the UK, however, and are quite affordable, starting at around £12 per night. Many national parks also allow you to camp overnight. Details can be found here.
Check with the local council or a visitor information centre if you are unsure of the regulations within a specific area.

Yes, unlimited miles (kilometres) are generally included for standard vehicle rentals in the UK. The comparison tool will show you whether your preferred vehicle has unlimited or restricted miles.
Yes, some hire companies in the UK are pet-friendly. These include Just go, Bunk Campers, Easicampers, and roadsurfer.
Some suppliers may allow pets only with prior written approval, while others may not allow pets (other than assistance/guide dogs) — always check the supplier’s terms before you book.
With all these companies, approval must be obtained before your hire. A service/cleaning fee may also be charged.
It is your responsibility to keep the vehicle clean, and you will be liable for any damage caused as a result of bringing a pet on board.
The hirer is also responsible for the safe transport of any domestic animals in line with local regulations, as well as complying with any entry restrictions and vaccinations.
To hire a campervan in the UK or Ireland, suppliers usually require a full licence (requirements vary by company and vehicle type). A standard Category B licence (or equivalent) allows you to drive vehicles up to 3,500kg MAM. To drive heavier motorhomes, you need Category C1 (3.5–7.5t) or Category C (over 7.5t). If your licence isn’t in English, you may need an International Driving Permit (IDP) or an official translation—check GOV.UK guidance and your supplier.
Note: policies vary from supplier to supplier. Always check the T&Cs for your rental.
