Campervan & Motorhome Hire in Wales

More space, more comfort than a typical campervan — luxury motorhomes for exploring all of Wales, collected just off the M4 near Bridgend.

Campervan & Motorhome Hire in Wales

Looking for a campervan to explore Wales? Take a look at what a luxury motorhome offers before you book. Our vehicles give you everything people love about a campervan — the freedom to roam, to wake up by the sea or the mountains, to change your plans on a whim — but with far more space, a proper kitchen, a real bathroom and comfortable beds for four to seven people. It is campervan freedom without the compromise.

Why Knott Hire is a local, independent Welsh business in Bridgend, right beside the M4 between Cardiff and Swansea. Every motorhome in our fleet is modern, luxury and fully equipped, fully insured, and handed over in person so you set off relaxed and ready — first-timers very welcome. You get the campervan adventure with the comfort of a holiday home that travels with you.

Wales is made for this kind of trip. From our base you can be deep in the Brecon Beacons within the hour, surfing the Gower the same afternoon, or following the coast down to Pembrokeshire and up to Eryri (Snowdonia) on a longer tour. Quiet beaches, mountain passes, dark-sky reserves and friendly campsites and aires are all on your doorstep.

Book direct with us and there are no marketplace fees and no middle-man — just a straightforward price, a real local team, and a spotless luxury motorhome waiting for you in Wales. Choose your dates, collect from Bridgend, and go and explore.

Campervan or motorhome? What the difference means for your trip

The two words get used interchangeably, but they describe genuinely different vehicles — and which one suits you depends mostly on where you are going.

The campervan

A campervan is built inside a panel van, so the living space and the cab are one shell. It is shorter, narrower and markedly easier to park, which counts for a lot on Welsh single-track roads and in small seaside car parks. Ours is Jessie, an Auto-Trail Expedition 67 Flex: four berths, automatic, a lithium leisure battery and an electric drop-down bed over the rear lounge.

The coachbuilt motorhome

A motorhome is a coachbuilt body on a van chassis. You get noticeably more room — separate seating and sleeping areas, a larger washroom, more storage — at the cost of length and width. Most of our fleet is coachbuilt, which is worth saying plainly: if you searched for campervan hire picturing a VW-style camper, we are a motorhome fleet with one true campervan in it. That is usually good news, because you get more space for the money.

Which suits your trip

Take the campervan if there are two of you, you plan to move on most days, and you are heading somewhere with tight lanes and small car parks — the Llŷn, the Gower, the Pembrokeshire coast villages. Take a coachbuilt motorhome if you are a family, you tend to stay put for a few nights at a time, or you simply want more room when the weather turns. Wales gets weather.

What you need to drive one

Both are under 3,500kg, so a standard UK car licence covers you with no extra entitlement. Jessie is automatic, as are six of our seven motorhomes.
