Compare campervans, motorhomes and RVs to hire in Yorkshire, listed by private owners and local hire businesses. See prices, photos and reviews for campervan hire in the UK, then book online with insurance included.
Yorkshire covers two national parks, a long coastline and some of the best quiet driving in England — the Dales to the west, the Moors to the north-east, and the coast beyond either. Enter your Yorkshire postcode on the search page, set a collection radius, and you will see insured campervans and motorhomes from owners and operators across the county.
Every vehicle is listed by its owner — private owners and local rental businesses — and booked through our partner Outdoorsy, with insurance and payment protection on every booking.
Campervans and motorhomes for hire in Yorkshire
The choice runs from 2-berth camper vans — a converted van that sleeps two and drives much like a large car — to 6-berth motorhomes with a full kitchen and bathroom. A berth is a sleeping space, so a 4-berth sleeps four.
For the Dales’ narrow valley roads, a 2 or 4-berth is the easier, more flexible choice. The main routes between Leeds, York and Sheffield are fine for any size. See camper van hire and motorhome hire.
Price follows the same pattern wherever you hire: the smallest camper van is consistently the cheapest option, a 6-berth motorhome the most expensive, and the price per night usually drops the longer you book for. Booking in the school holidays, especially August, costs noticeably more than spring or autumn. Enter your dates on the search page for a real price rather than a generic average — see motorhome hire prices for more on what moves it.

Best places to go in Yorkshire
- The Yorkshire Dales — limestone valleys, Malham Cove and the Three Peaks; see the dedicated Yorkshire Dales page.
- The North York Moors and coast — heather moor, a steam railway, and the harbours at Whitby and Robin Hood’s Bay.
- The Yorkshire Wolds and Flamborough Head — chalk wolds and seabird cliffs, quieter than the coast further north.
- York itself — city walls, the Minster, and an easy base between the Dales and the Moors.
Campsites in Yorkshire
- Bolton Abbey Estate Caravan and Motorhome Club Site — a quiet site north of the abbey ruins in Wharfedale.
- York Beechwood Grange Caravan and Motorhome Club Site — a large, well-run site just outside York, open all year.
- Club and farm sites throughout the Moors give you a first night before heading to the coast.
When to travel
July and August are the busiest, dearest weeks and the closest vans book first — reserve three to four months ahead. Spring and September are cheaper and quieter, and the Dales and Moors are at their best with fewer visitors.

Campervan and motorhome hire in Yorkshire — FAQs

It depends mainly on the vehicle size, the season and how long you hire for.

Where can I pick up a campervan in Yorkshire?
Owners list vehicles around Leeds, York and Sheffield, with a wide spread across the county. A 20–35 mile radius in the search widens your choice.
Can I drive a motorhome on a normal car licence?
Yes, for almost all of them. A full UK car licence covers vehicles up to 3,500 kg — every camper van and most 2 to 6-berth motorhomes. The listing flags any that need a C1 licence.
Are there dog-friendly campervans in Yorkshire?
Yes — many owners set their vans up for dogs, which suits the Dales and Moors walking well. Filter for pet-friendly vehicles and check the owner’s policy. See dog-friendly campervan hire.
How far in advance should I book?
For summer, three to four months ahead — the nearest vehicles go first. Off-season, a few weeks is usually enough.
