Manchester Campervan Hire

Most campervan hire companies in the UK have vehicle options that allow child safety seats. UK law generally requires children to use an appropriate child car seat until they’re 12 years old or 135 cm tall (whichever comes first). Always confirm seatbelt/ISOFIX compatibility and that you can install the seat correctly before you book.

All drivers must have a current and full driving licence to hire a vehicle. If your licence is from the UK, a standard Category B licence typically covers vehicles up to 3,500kg MAM (check the vehicle’s MAM before you book). Heavier motorhomes may require Category C1 (3.5–7.5t) or Category C (over 7.5t).

Foreign licences are often accepted for visiting drivers, but the rules depend on where your licence was issued and whether it is in English. You may need an International Driving Permit (IDP) or an official translation—check GOV.UK guidance and your supplier before you book.

Minimum driver age and licence-holding requirements vary by supplier and vehicle class. Most campervan hire companies in the UK require the driver to be 21 or over. In addition, you must have held your licence for a specific period of time (generally between 2–5 years). Certain vehicles may be restricted for drivers under the age of 25.
