What size motorhome do you need/ how many people will be travelling and sleeping in the motorhome?

  • The Motorhome Hire Company should be able to hire you the best layout and size for your party.
  • Start to look a little closer at motorhomes in Scotland. By rights the company who provides you with the motorhome hire Scotland should tell you exactly what is all included in the vehicle.
  • Try to hire the latest Model motorhome as one over two years old is liable to be well worn and threadbare.  A Motorhome Hire Scotland should be like a home-from-home, ideally all you should have to bring along is your clothing, toiletries and provisions, the rest should be included in the price.
  • Most hire companies supply the bedding as an extra so remember to order bedding / towel packs if not bring your own.
