Frequently asked questions

Is a campervan holiday really as relaxing as everyone says?

In a word: yes. A campervan holiday means total freedom — no fixed hotel bookings, no rigid itineraries. Wake up by the sea, in the countryside or beside a mountain lake. With a fully equipped campervan from Camplify, you have everything you need on board: kitchen, bed, sometimes even a shower. And because you collect directly from the owner, you get personal tips and a vehicle prepared with care.

How much does it cost to hire a campervan in Birmingham?

Prices vary by season and vehicle type. On Camplify, you'll find campervans from around £60 per night and motorhomes from around £80 per night. A 12% booking fee (plus VAT) and an owner service fee (typically around £25) are added per booking. Because you're hiring from private owners, you'll often find better value than traditional hire companies.

What driving licence do I need for a campervan?

You'll need a full, valid UK driving licence held for at least 2 years. Category B covers most campervans and motorhomes up to 3,500 kg; larger motorhomes may require C1. Drivers must be aged 25–75. Camplify runs a DVLA check on every hirer before the van goes out on hire.

How does collection work?

Collection is directly from the owner — usually at their home. You'll receive the exact address before the booking, so you can plan whether to arrive by public transport, taxi or your own car. Bring your driving licence to the handover. The owner will walk you through the vehicle and complete a pre-hire checklist together.

Can I take the campervan abroad?

Camplify Flex cover extends to EU countries plus Iceland, Norway and Switzerland. You'll need a VE103 certificate (requested by the owner) and a motor insurance certificate. Check with the owner, arrange your own ferry or Channel Tunnel crossing and make sure the vehicle's tax and MOT are up to date.

What's included in the hire?

Every Camplify booking includes Damage Protection Cover and 24/7 RAC breakdown assistance. Most owners also include bedding, kitchen equipment and camping chairs — check the listing for full details. Fuel, tolls, campsite fees and mileage over 1,000 miles (charged at 45p per mile) are your responsibility.

Can I bring my dog?

Many owners welcome pets — look for the pet-friendly filter when searching. If it's not mentioned, simply message the owner to ask. Some may charge a small cleaning fee.

Campervan, motorhome or caravan — which is right for me?

Campervans are compact and easy to drive — perfect for couples or weekend escapes. Motorhomes offer more space with separate sleeping, cooking and sometimes shower areas — ideal for families. Caravans give you a cosy home-from-home that stays put while you explore by car.

How does booking work on Camplify?

Search for a location and dates, then send a booking request to the owner. Once approved, you pay 25 % to secure the booking — the balance is taken automatically 30 days before your trip (or immediately if you book within 30 days). Arrange collection details through the Camplify messaging system.

What happens if the campervan breaks down?

Every booking includes 24/7 RAC breakdown assistance. Call 0333 202 1872 and quote reference CAMP01 — RAC will arrange roadside recovery at no cost to you. Let the owner know too.

Can someone else drive too?

Yes — additional drivers no longer need a separate Camplify account. They must meet the insurer's eligibility requirements and bring a valid driving licence to the handover. Check the Flex insurance eligibility page for details.

How does insurance work?

Damage Protection Cover is included with every Camplify booking. The standard excess ranges from £500 to £2,000 on Flex bookings, but you can reduce it with a Silver or Gold excess package at checkout.

Where exactly do I pick up the campervan in Birmingham?

Collection is directly from the owner — usually at their home in Birmingham. You'll receive the exact address before the booking so you can plan whether to arrive by public transport, taxi or your own car.

How quickly can I reach my destination from Birmingham?

From Birmingham you can reach stunning destinations: in the Peak District ca. 1h, in the Cotswolds ca. 1h, in Snowdonia ca. 2.5h, in the Lake District ca. 2.5h.

Explore Birmingham — before your adventure begins

Picking up your campervan in Birmingham? Take a moment to explore the city first. Before you hit the road, a last wander is well worth it — Birmingham has plenty to offer to build the excitement for the journey ahead.

The Birmingham vibe

Birmingham is a city that does things its own way, from the Brutalist architecture of the Central Library to the jewellery workshops still operating in the Jewellery Quarter along Vyse Street and Warstone Lane. The Custard Factory in Digbeth has transformed an old Bird's Custard works into a creative quarter filled with independent studios and shops, while the Ikon Gallery in Brindleyplace showcases contemporary art in a converted neo-Gothic school building. The canal network threading through the city centre makes Birmingham feel surprisingly intimate, and walking along the towpaths gives you a perspective on the city that most visitors miss entirely. It is the kind of place that rewards curiosity before you head out on your campervan adventure.

Local food and markets

The Bull Ring Markets have been feeding Birmingham since the Middle Ages, and the indoor Rag Market and outdoor Open Market remain the heart of the city's food shopping. The Balti Triangle in Sparkbrook put Birmingham on the culinary map, with restaurants along Ladypool Road and Stoney Lane serving the dish that was born here in the 1970s. For provisioning your motorhome, the Great Western Arcade and nearby Piccadilly Arcade house independent delis and bakeries, while Stirchley along Pershore Road has quietly become a neighbourhood food destination with craft breweries, a sourdough bakery, and the Stirchley Stores cooperative.

Parks and green spaces

Sutton Park in the north is one of the largest urban parks in Europe, with heathland, wetlands, and ancient woodland that feels genuinely wild. Closer to the centre, Cannon Hill Park borders the Midlands Arts Centre and offers boating on the lake, while the paths along the River Rea connect a chain of green spaces from Bournville to Digbeth. Lickey Hills Country Park sits on the city's southern edge and offers views across to the Malverns on a clear day. A morning walk through any of these parks is a fine way to ease into a campervan trip heading towards the Cotswolds or the Welsh borders.

  • Shower and WC (on many models)

  • Camping chairs, table and awning for outdoors

Little extras for an unforgettable experience

Many owners in Birmingham include extras: a coffee maker, Bluetooth speaker, camping crockery or even a bike rack. Check the listing for full details — or message the owner through the Camplify messaging system.

Travelling with pets?
