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 Cotswolds?

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 Cotswolds?

Collection is directly from the owner — usually at their home in Cotswolds. 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 Cotswolds?

From Cotswolds you can reach stunning destinations: in the Cotswolds ca. 1h, in the New Forest ca. 1.5h, on the Dorset Coast ca. 2h, in Cornwall ca. 3.5h.

Cotswolds — your starting point for adventure

In the heart of England, close to the M4, M40 and M5 — Cotswolds is the perfect starting point for your campervan trip. Whether you're heading to in the Cotswolds, in the New Forest or on the Dorset Coast: you'll be on the motorway in minutes.

Explore Cotswolds — before your adventure begins

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

The Cotswolds vibe

The Cotswolds run across six counties, but the honey-coloured limestone that ties it all together gives the region a coherence you feel immediately. Villages like Bourton-on-the-Water, Stow-on-the-Wold, and Bibury draw weekend visitors, but the quieter corners — Guiting Power, Snowshill, the Slaughters — still have that unhurried quality that makes you want to park up and stay a while. There is a working agricultural character underneath the postcard prettiness, with sheep farms and dry stone walls shaping the landscape.

Local food and markets

Daylesford Organic near Kingham is a farm shop on a grand scale — cheeses, bread, charcuterie, and produce grown on the estate. For something more modest, the weekly market in Moreton-in-Marsh on Tuesdays fills the High Street with local veg, pies, and baked goods. Hooknorton Brewery runs tours if you want to see a proper Victorian tower brewery still in operation, and the Cotswold Cheese Company in Burford sells varieties you will not find in a supermarket.

Parks and green spaces

The Cotswold Way runs 102 miles from Chipping Campden to Bath along the escarpment edge, with views west across the Severn Vale. Even a short stretch — the section around Broadway Tower or Cleeve Hill above Cheltenham — gives you a sense of the wider landscape. The water meadows around Bourton-on-the-Water follow the River Windrush, and Westonbirt Arboretum near Tetbury has one of the finest tree collections in Europe, with 15,000 specimens spread across 600 acres.

What's on board?

The best thing about a campervan holiday: everything you need is right there with you. Most vehicles from private owners on Camplify are fully equipped — often with more care and attention than you'd find from a commercial hire company.

  • Kitchenette with hob, sink and fridge

  • Comfortable sleeping areas with bedding or sleeping bag option

  • Shower and WC (on many models)

  • Camping chairs, table and awning for outdoors

Little extras for an unforgettable experience

Many owners in Cotswolds 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?

Many Camplify owners welcome dogs and other pets. Use the pet-friendly filter to find vehicles where your four-legged friend is welcome. Some owners even provide dog bowls and blankets.
