Useful tips for your holiday in Glasgow
The best time to hire a campervan in Glasgow depends on how worried you are about the weather. Glasgow (and Scotland) has unpredictable weather throughout the year, so you may be unable to avoid the rain. For many, summer is the best time, from June through August, as the rain is less likely. However, anytime between March and August is a good call if you are not worried about the weather.
- Hiking
To avoid the colder and wet weather likely during Autumn and Winter, it is best to hike on the hills and mountains in and around Glasgow from March through to September. There are Munros like Ben Lomond and the Campsies close to Glasgow, so you don’t need to venture too far into the countryside.
- Sightseeing
As is the case anywhere in Scotland, the best time for sightseeing in and around Glasgow is from May to September. The wettest months are December through to February. Just be aware that the excellent weather attracts crowds.
- Shopping and dinning out
While it will be a fantastic experience whenever you go, you have a better chance of avoiding the more changeable and wetter weather if you aim to rent a motorhome in Glasgow from May through to September.

Best campervan routes around Glasgow
Isle of Arran
The route to the Isle of Arran is one of the shortest trips you can take when using CamperDays for affordable motorhome hire in Glasgow. It covers 114 miles and includes an affordable ferry connection. From Glasgow, you follow the easily signposted roads to Ardrossan on the western coast to cross the Firth of Clyde to the island. On the Isle of Arran, you can drive around the stunning scenery and stop at key attractions like Brodick Castle, Whiting Bay, and Arran Distillery. Spring or autumn is the best time to visit, and you should be able to complete the route, there and back, in a day.
Glasgow to Machrihanish, Glasgow and Argyll
If you prefer a mainland trip for motorhome rental in Glasgow, the route from the city to Machrihanish starts on the A82. Follow the road and wind past the stunning Loch Lomond (you can even stop off on the way for a walk and explore the lake) before taking onto the A83 and driving what is known as the “long and winding road”. On the way, you also have the opportunity to stop at spots like Rest and Be Thankful Pass, Loch Fyne, and Inveraray Castle. The last leg of this route takes place on the Kintyre coast, Campbeltown, and Machrihanish.
Key sights and attractions around Glasgow
Loch Lomond
Just about 40 minutes from Glasgow, Loch Lomond is a stunning area of natural beauty and part of the Trossachs National Park. It's ideal for outdoor activities like hiking, boating, and fishing. Several campervan sites around the loch offer scenic places to stay overnight.
Clyde Muirshiel Regional Park
This is the largest regional park in Scotland, located just west of Glasgow. It offers a variety of outdoor activities, including walking, cycling, and sailing. The park has several lochs and is a great spot for bird watching. There are facilities for campervans, making it easy to stay and explore for a few days.
Loch Ness
No visit to the Highlands is complete without a trip to Loch Ness. Beyond the allure of Nessie, the Loch Ness Monster, the area around the loch is great for hiking and visiting historic attractions like Urquhart Castle.

The price of camper van hire in Glasgow will differ from one company to another, so you should use our price comparison tool and book through CamperDays. For a small 2-berth campervan, the price will generally be between £70 and £180, while for a much larger recreational vehicle, with a 4 to 6 berth, it is likely to be £100 to £200 a day.
Generally speaking, you can drive wherever you want, park up, and sleep overnight at most spots. However, you need to be sure it is a public road and that you are not creating an obstruction or blocking other vehicles.
Thanks to the Land Reform (Scotland) Act 2003 wild camping in Scotland is permitted. It is an exciting experience for many, but there are things to keep in mind such as do not camp near historic buildings or people’s homes without permission. Do not camp in enclosed fields and always take your litter with you. Looking at the Scottish Outdoor Access Code before going wild camping in Scotland is highly recommended. The code provides both helpful information and advice.
