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 Middlesbrough?

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 Middlesbrough?

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

From Middlesbrough you can reach stunning destinations: in the Yorkshire Dales ca. 1h, in the Lake District ca. 1.5h, in the Cotswolds ca. 4h, in Cornwall ca. 7h.

Middlesbrough — your starting point for adventure

In the heart of Teesside, close to the A1(M) and M6 — Middlesbrough is the perfect starting point for your campervan trip. Whether you're heading to in the Yorkshire Dales, in the Lake District or in the Cotswolds: you'll be on the motorway in minutes.

Explore Middlesbrough — before your adventure begins

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

Reinvention and creative quarters

Middlesbrough grew from a farmstead to an industrial powerhouse in a single century, and that rapid history gives it an interesting texture. The Middlesbrough Institute of Modern Art (MIMA) on Centre Square has a strong collection of craft and fine art in a striking glass building. The Transporter Bridge across the Tees — one of only a handful of working examples in the world — remains the city's defining landmark and still carries passengers in its gondola. Baker Street and Bedford Street have a growing cluster of independent businesses and street art that speaks to a quieter kind of reinvention.

Local food and markets

The parmo — a breaded, deep-fried chicken cutlet topped with bechamel and cheese — is Middlesbrough's signature dish, and locals have strong opinions about where to get the proper version. The Central on Corporation Road and Palmers on Linthorpe Road both have their advocates. Middlesbrough's indoor market hall on Corporation Road sells fruit, veg, and household goods at good prices, and the Bedford Street area has a few independent cafes and food spots, including Orange Pip Market events that bring street food traders together on weekends.

Parks and green spaces

Albert Park, designed in the 1860s and opened by Prince Arthur, has a boating lake, a Victorian bandstand, and tree-lined avenues in the heart of the town. Stewart Park on the southern edge — where Captain Cook was born at the nearby Marton farmstead — has parkland, a museum dedicated to Cook's voyages, and an animal centre. The Tees Barrage created a whitewater course and still-water stretch on the river that is used for canoeing and rowing, and the riverside path connects downstream to the industrial heritage sites at Port Clarence.

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 Middlesbrough 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.
