Dora was not only a joy to drive but also a pleasure to live in. She came fully furnished, with all the necessary accessories readily available for cooking, cleaning, and relaxing. Comfortable, spacious, and easy to maintain, Dora provided everything we needed for a perfect getaway. We all had a wonderful weekend and created some fantastic memories. Dora behaved impeccably throughout the trip—no complaints, no drama, and she even managed to get us there and back without asking, "Are we nearly there yet?" Thank you, Dora, for being the perfect travel companion and home away from home. We’re already looking forward to our next adventure together. See you again soon, Dora – try not to miss us too much! 🚐😊

We hired Everest in Bristol. Great van from a super friendly couple. It has been well stocked and well looked after. Would recommend. Airport pickup was a bonus.

Bluebelle was absolutely brilliant and made our Shindig Festival weekend so comfortable. We were two adults and two children, and there was plenty of space for all of us. You can tell a huge amount of thought has gone into every detail. We loved the clever pump sink, and were amazed at how long the water lasted. There were so many thoughtful touches throughout the van, including the magnetic picture that transforms into a blind, which we thought was such a lovely idea. The bed over the cab was fantastic and really helped maximise the space. We didn't get a chance to use the stove because we were lucky enough to have a heatwave, but it would make Bluebelle incredibly cosy on cooler evenings. Despite the hot weather, we stayed cool and comfortable throughout our trip. Everything was clean, well organised and easy to use. Bluebelle is a beautiful campervan, full of character and practical features. We'd happily hire her again and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for a comfortable and memorable campervan adventure. Louise

We rented Everest for a half term mid week trip to the Peak District. We had an excellent time and enjoyed the van life. Charlotte and Michael were very helpful and were quick to answer our questions.

I really enjoyed my stay in Thelma , plenty of room to have 3 beds up permanently at the same time as a proper table & chairs. I would rent her again.

We were forced to make a last minute booking and the both the Team at Quirky Campers and the owners were really communicative and helpful. Thank you. We've hired a number of vans before. Here is our review of Solveig. "Perfect. Solveig is a robust van with absolutely everything we needed. She drove brilliantly - smooth and economical. The handover was great and Matt was thorough in explaining everything to us. We had lots of space, a really comfy bed, plenty of water - hot and cold, outside shower (she has both internal and external shower, but we opted for al fresco and use the inside for storage). The fridge was really efficient and kept everything cool. We had 6 nights fully off grid and didn't need hook-up at all and just needed to empty water once. Brilliant! Awning, super-comfy reclining outdoor chairs, table and loads of other accessories - fab. Oh, a final word on the lighting. Great internal lights. Magical. We really stood out in a field full of vans and she got a lot of attention - all good of course. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend. Perfect for exploring the South of England or beyond,with easy access into the continent. Thanks, Matt & Emma" - and everyone at Quirky Campers. See you next adventure!!

The camper van was clean and well organised with the thinks you need. Charlotte was responsive in the pre-hire period and even with a question when we were away. We were given a complete run through on how everything worked. Everything was as expected from what was advertised in the web site. If you are 2 adults I would recommend not sleeping on the bed within the camper van as this is more suited to children, it's very hard.

Florence is an absolutely amazing camper and her owners Paul and Lisa are absolutely amazing as well. I could not have asked for a better experience and would highly recommend anyone book Florence if they want to be offgrid or on and have all the amenities as well. Having a full oven made a huge difference and having a toilet and shower was so convenient. Florence is a beautiful , capable ,safe easy to drive camper combine that with the ease of communication and clarity of instructions from Paul makes this a win-win situation. Paul was extremely easy to communicate with and sent over an easy to read , functional set of instructions for Florence prior to my arrival so I felt quite at home and capable of driving Florence straightaway. I've started making plans to come back to to the UK next year and book Florence again

QUICK ANSWERS FOR HIRERS

Bristol Campervan Hire FAQ

Where can I pick up a campervan in Bristol?

Bristol campervan pick-up is arranged from the specific van’s own collection point. You’ll see the collection area on the listing before you book, so you can choose something practical for Temple Meads, Bristol Parkway or Bristol Airport. From Bristol, you are well placed for Somerset, the Cotswolds, Wales and the South West coast, which makes it easy to start the holiday without adding a long first drive.

Where can I take a campervan from Bristol?

From Bristol, popular campervan routes include the Mendips, Bath, Cheddar Gorge, the Cotswolds and the Wye Valley. It is an easy place to start if you want city buzz on day one and hills, gorges or river valleys soon after. For a smoother Bristol trip, keep day one fairly light so you have time to collect the van, settle in and enjoy the first proper stop.

Are there good campervan campsites near Bristol?

There are plenty of places to camp near Bristol if you plan the route in advance. Look around the Mendips, Cheddar, Chew Valley, Bath, the Cotswolds and the Wye Valley for touring pitches, farm stays and quieter countryside options. Sites close to Bristol can book up around balloon fiesta weekend, so it pays to secure your first night early. Before booking near Bristol, check van size limits, arrival windows and whether hardstanding is available.

Can I wild camp near Bristol in a campervan?

Campervan wild camping around Bristol and the surrounding countryside should only happen where you have permission or a clearly allowed overnight stop. Across Bristol and the surrounding countryside, car parks, beaches and rural lanes can all have different rules, so it is best not to wing it. A booked pitch around Bristol gives you certainty, facilities and a much calmer start the next morning.

Can I hire a campervan for events near Bristol?

Event weekends are a popular reason to hire a campervan near Bristol. Bristol International Balloon Fiesta, Bristol Harbour Festival, Love Saves the Day and Forwards Festival are all strong options, with Cooper’s Hill Cheese Rolling close enough for a wonderfully odd road-trip detour. Before booking a Bristol campervan for the event, confirm campervan access, parking passes and whether overnight stays are actually allowed.

How much does campervan hire in Bristol cost?

Prices for campervan hire in Bristol start from £90 per night. Your Bristol quote will reflect the vehicle, time of year, journey length and any extras selected during booking. If you are weighing up a balloon fiesta weekend, a Cotswolds escape or a longer South West loop, try searching flexible dates to see the widest choice.

Why choose Quirky Campers?

Bristol is the gateway to the UK’s beautiful South West. If you’re looking for a holiday in charming English countryside or a tour around ancient monuments and stone circles, one of our fantastic homes on wheels will be the perfect option for your travels ahead.
