Looking to hire a Motorhome for travelling to Ireland or Europe?

The best European holidays don’t alway start at an airport, consider travelling out through one of our seaports and venture overseas in one of our luxury vehicles. You can pick up one of our motorhomes from Bridgend, roll onto a ferry or the Shuttle and wake up in Ireland or France with your itinerary entirely your own — idyllic scenery, vineyards, Alpine passes, Atlantic surf beaches, Christmas markets – the world is your oyster! To start the process, simply Add European Cover at booking and the Continent is included.

How European travel works with our motorhomes and camper vans

• Add “Europe” at the Extras step when you book — that’s it!. Our team confirms the paperwork you will carry with the vehicle.
• Ferry and tunnel discounts — every hirer gets free Campsite+ membership access, which includes discounts on ferry and Eurotunnel crossings, plus member rates across 2,700+ campsites in the UK and Europe.
• Mileage that matches a proper tour — a generous 1,500 miles per week is included.
• International RAC breakdown cover and comprehensive insurance for named drivers come as standard on every hire.

Need inspiration for travel routes?

Here’s are some of the most popular destinations our customers have loved:

• Brittany and the Loire — ferry to St-Malo or drive from Calais; discover walled towns, chateaux and crepes. See our day-by-day Brittany and Loire guide.
• Normandy — Mont-Saint-Michel, the D-Day coast and Camembert country – all drivable within a day of the Channel.
• The Grand Tour — why not venture afield and explore the Alps, the Italian lakes, the north coast of Spain or the ring of Kerry. With comfortable beds, modern fitted kitchens and bathrooms and heating on board, the journey is the fun part of your great adventure.

European Travel hire — common questions

Can I take your motorhomes to Europe?

Yes — add European cover when you book and you are set for the Continent.

Which crossing should I use?

Most of our hirers use the Eurotunnel at Folkestone or the Dover ferries for the shortest route into mainland Europe or Holyhead, Fishguard and PembrokeDock for Ireland. Western France is lovely via the Portsmouth to St-Malo or Poole to Cherbourg ferries. Your Campsite+ access gets you a discount either way.

What do I need to drive in France?

Your licence, the van documents (we supply them), and the usual French kit — we run through everything at handover so you cross prepared.

Is the mileage enough for a European tour?

1,500 miles per week covers a very full itinerary — that is Calais to the Riviera and back with sightseeing to spare on a two-week hire.

Start planning: check availability for your dates, add the Europe option at Extras, and bring the baguettes back with you.
