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

Newcastle upon Tyne Campervan Hire FAQ

Where can I pick up a campervan in Newcastle upon Tyne?

Your Newcastle upon Tyne campervan will be collected from the individual van’s confirmed location. Check the listing map and travel notes before booking, especially if you are arriving via Newcastle Central, Gateshead, Tynemouth, Durham or Newcastle Airport. The area works well as a launch point for Northumberland, Hadrian’s Wall, the Durham Dales and the Scottish Borders.

Where can I take a campervan from Newcastle upon Tyne?

There are plenty of route options from Newcastle upon Tyne, including Tynemouth, Bamburgh, Alnwick, Hadrian’s Wall, Kielder, the Durham Dales and the Scottish Borders. It is perfect for a route that mixes beaches, castles, dark skies and Roman history. For Newcastle upon Tyne, a simple two or three-stop itinerary usually works better than trying to cover every highlight in one short break.

Are there good campervan campsites near Newcastle upon Tyne?

Yes, there are campervan-friendly campsites near Newcastle upon Tyne, especially around Northumberland coast, Tynemouth, Bamburgh, Alnwick, Kielder, Hadrian’s Wall and the Durham Dales. Great North Run weekend and summer coastal trips are times to secure your overnight stop early. If you need electric hook-up, showers or family facilities near Newcastle upon Tyne, check those details before you book rather than assuming every pitch offers the same set-up.

Can I wild camp near Newcastle upon Tyne in a campervan?

You generally need landowner permission to wild camp in a campervan around Newcastle, Northumberland and the North East coast. A quiet lay-by or car park around Newcastle upon Tyne is not the same as an approved overnight stop, even if it looks tempting. Campsites, pub stopovers and organised off-grid pitches around Newcastle upon Tyne are usually the simplest way to stay relaxed and responsible.

Can I hire a campervan for events near Newcastle upon Tyne?

A campervan can make event trips around Newcastle upon Tyne much more flexible. The Great North Run, The Hoppings, Mouth of the Tyne Festival, Lindisfarne Festival and Northern Pride all work well as anchors for a North East road trip. For Newcastle upon Tyne events, check whether live-in vehicles are allowed, whether campervan tickets are separate and what arrival times apply.

How much does campervan hire in Newcastle upon Tyne cost?

Campervan hire in Newcastle upon Tyne starts from £90 per night. Newcastle upon Tyne prices change with the van, season, trip length and any extras you add, so a school-holiday booking will not always look the same as a quiet midweek escape. It is worth comparing a few vans if you are planning the Great North Run, a Northumberland coast trip or a Scottish Borders escape.
