Explore the UK from the Heart of England’s Capital City
Welcome to London, the iconic capital of England – where history and culture collide in a vibrant city as vast and sprawling as it is diverse and fascinating! Hiring a Campervan from London may at first seem like a quirky choice – but did you know that there are many campsites that welcome campervans, both near to London and actually in it? Camping out is a wonderfully unconventional way to feel the heartbeat of the UK’s capital. A motorhome on the outskirts makes a cosy, off-beat base from which to explore the buzz of Central London. From world-famous landmarks like the Tower of London, Buckingham Palace, and the Houses of Parliament, to the open green spaces of Richmond Park, Hampstead Heath and Regents Park – London has endless wonders to explore.

What London Campers Say

QUICK ANSWERS FOR HIRERS
London Campervan Hire FAQ
Where can I pick up a campervan in London?
London 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 outer London collection points, major rail stations, the Tube network or airport links. From London, you are well placed for the Chilterns, Surrey Hills, Kent, the South Downs and the New Forest, which makes it easy to start the holiday without adding a long first drive.
Where can I take a campervan from London?
From London, popular campervan routes include the Chilterns, Surrey Hills, Kent coast, South Downs, Cotswolds, New Forest and Essex countryside. For a smoother start, check ULEZ, parking and collection details before choosing a van inside or near the capital. For a smoother London 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 London?
There are plenty of places to camp near London if you plan the route in advance. Look around the Chilterns, Surrey Hills, Epping Forest edges, Kent, the South Downs and the New Forest for touring pitches, farm stays and quieter countryside options. Leaving London can take longer than expected, so a campsite within a couple of hours often works well for night one. Before booking near London, check van size limits, arrival windows and whether hardstanding is available.
Can I wild camp near London in a campervan?
Campervan wild camping around London and the countryside around the capital should only happen where you have permission or a clearly allowed overnight stop. Across London and the countryside around the capital, car parks, beaches and rural lanes can all have different rules, so it is best not to wing it. A booked pitch around London gives you certainty, facilities and a much calmer start the next morning.
Can I hire a campervan for events near London?
Event weekends are a popular reason to hire a campervan near London. Notting Hill Carnival, BST Hyde Park, All Points East, the London Marathon and Wimbledon can all work with a campervan if you plan where to stay outside the busiest zones. Before booking a London campervan for the event, confirm campervan access, parking passes and whether overnight stays are actually allowed.
What is there to discover beyond the City of London?
Once you’ve exhausted your explorations of London’s Boroughs – head out to the beautiful countryside that surrounds the city. A short drive takes you to the scenic Chiltern Hills or the rolling landscapes of the Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. In your campervan, you can journey through the charming English villages, explore historic sites like Windsor Castle, or follow the winding Thames River as it leads you through picturesque landscapes.
With a campervan at your side, you can easily reach the stunning landscapes of the South East, from the tranquil Cotswolds to the serene beauty of the North Downs. Take in panoramic views, enjoy long country walks, and as night falls, open your campervan to the peaceful sounds of nature. With starry skies and wide-open spaces just a drive away, the countryside around London is perfect for a relaxing escape from the hustle and bustle of city life.
Which London highlights should I explore?
Throw yourself into the dynamic energy of London, a city where every street offers something new to uncover! Stroll through the bustling markets of Camden, marvel at the architecture of the Shard, or take in a panoramic view of the city from the London Eye. Whether you prefer exploring the hustle and bustle of the cobbled Covent Garden or enjoying peaceful walks through Hyde Park and along the Serpentine, London’s unique whirlwind experience will captivate you. To experience London at its best, there’s no better way than with the freedom of a Quirky Campervan.
Should I hire from London for festivals?
If you’re a city dweller aching to escape the big smoke and spend a weekend in a muddy field this summer, many major UK festivals are within just a few hours drive of our London pick-up points… Fortunately, being a festival head no longer means giving up your double bed!
We love Campervans in the Capital!
The capital is a hugely popular camper hire location for our customers – so if you’re looking to own your own Quirky Camper in London, or have one you’d like to rent out through us there, we want to hear from you.
Maybe you’re flying to Heathrow, Luton, Gatwick or Stansted, and want to step off the tube and straight into a gorgeous handcrafted camper van? Wave goodbye to the London eye as you zoom up the motorway to explore everything the UK has to offer.
London is the centre of Britain’s road network and it’s easy to drive to anywhere from here. In a week, you could easily visit Stonehenge, Bath, Glastonbury, Stratford-on-Avon and Oxford and still have plenty of time to see the changing of the guard at Buckingham Palace! Alternatively, why not head to East Anglia to experience some medieval history, to visit Cambridge, or for a weekend at Latitude Festival? If you have more time, dive into the breathtaking beauty of Britain’s countryside by heading out into the unspoilt wilderness of Wales or Scotland.
