Yes, many companies allow a bike rack to be fitted to the vehicle. Some companies, such as Apollo and Bunk Campers, even include this in the standard rental rate.

Please note that bike racks are not available with all makes and models, and usually must be reserved in advance.

Generally, no. Land in the UK is usually privately owned, and it is not possible to wild camp without obtaining prior permission. Doing so without permission is a breach of the law.

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 permission, 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.

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 3,500 kg 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 acceptable if they are in English or accompanied by an accredited English translation; otherwise, an International Driving Permit is required.
