Affordable Campervan hire in Birmingham

Birmingham is at the heart of the UK, which makes it a great place to start your UK campervan adventure. You have easy access to the countryside, historic sites and other fantastic locations from here. With its central location, picking up a motorhome for hire in Birmingham makes sense, as you are only a few hours from the Lake District, Wales and the South.

If you Google the city, people won’t say the nicest things about it but ignore them. There is a lot of history in this fabulous city. The chances are you won’t spend much time in the actual centre as that's not what campervan exploration is about.

Finding a cheap camper van for hire in Birmingham is easy. This is thanks to our easy-to-use website, which allows you to filter by budget, size, and a host of other options. This will enable you to get the best value and cheapest campervan in Birmingham.

Top tips for your Campervan trip to Birmingham

The best time to rent a motorhome in  Birmingham is between May and September. The weather will be warm during these months, and all the surrounding campsites will be open. Spring and Autumn are also good if you don’t mind colder weather, but you benefit from fewer crowds.

Since the pandemic, the UK has gone a bit campervan crazy, so we recommend booking way ahead of time to get the campervan you want. Birmingham is a very popular pickup place due to its central location.

Best campervan routes in Birmingham

Birmingham to Snowdonia
Snowdonia is at the top of our list, an area made for campervans. The drive from Birmingham is around 120 miles. You could stop at places such as Shrewsbury (a lovely old market town) and Llangollen. Once in Snowdonia, you can hike up Mount Snowdon (the tallest mountain in Wales) or explore some of the little villages. Theres are plenty of campsites in the area.

Birmingham to the Lake District
No trip to the UK would be complete without heading to the Lake District. The drive is about 150 miles, and you can take the M6 straight out of Birmingham to get there. You will find plenty of lakes (hence the name), more mountains than you could wish for and lovely quintessential English towns. You could easily spend months in the Lake District and not get a chance to see it all. Our tip would be to head to less visited areas such as Haweswater and Kenmere. Parking will be easier, and you will explore places not everyone goes to.

Birmingham to Cornwall
Do you ever see those pictures in the UK that look like the Caribbean? Well, it's Cornwall, probably one of the nicest places in the UK. The journey to get here is about 200 miles long. You could extend the drive here as you pass through the county of Devon, which is equally as beautiful as Cornwall. Once in Cornwall, some of the best places to visit are St Ives, Padstow and the Eden Project. A word of warning though: Cornwall can be extremely busy during July and August.

Sites of interest and excursions in Birmingham

The Cotswolds
The Cotswolds are only an hour's drive from where you can pick up your motorhome rental in Birmingham. If you have ever seen a postcard of the most perfect English village, then the chances are it was taken somewhere in the Cotswolds. Bourton-on-the-Water and Chipping Campden are great places to stop at in your campervan. This could be an area you call at while travelling south.

Ironbridge Gorge
Just 40 miles outside of Birmingham is Ironbridge Gorge. As the name suggests, it's famous for its Iron Bridge (it was the world's first). It’s an excellent place for a history fan, as several museums showcase the area's industrial history.

The Peak District
The Peak District is stunning and popular for those who choose campervan hire in Birmingham. We didn’t include it in our road trip section as it's a bit too close to be called a road trip, but as it's so close, it's an area we recommend you visit on your campervan trip. Some of the best things to do here are to visit Chatsworth House or head to Bakewell to try the original Bakewell Tarts.
