I get calls from Kendal most weeks — sometimes a family working out whether hiring beats buying, sometimes a retired couple who've finally decided this is the year. Whatever brings you to look at campervan hire from Kendal, my job is to make sure you leave with the right van and a plan you can actually enjoy.

What campervan hire from Kendal actually looks like

Guests from Kendal usually plan a loop rather than a straight line, and we'll help you build one. Whether it's the North Coast 500, a west-coast whisky run, or a slower drift through North West England, the geography's on your side. Bring the postcode of where you're staying and we'll factor the transfer into your handover time.

Because most of our customers are on their first motorhome trip, we treat the handover as a proper lesson, not a signature exercise. I've done it thousands of times; I know the four things people always forget, and we'll cover them twice.

2026 pricing (what it costs, what's included)

We publish real prices. £495 low season, £795 mid, £1,295 peak — one number covers the van, the kit, the insurance, the mileage and the handover. If someone quotes you dramatically less, ask them what's not included; it's usually bedding, gas, insurance excess reduction, and the extra hour on handover, and those four line items add up fast.

Insurance is fully-comp with a £750 standard excess. You can reduce that to zero on the day for a small daily fee, and I'd recommend it for first-time hirers — not because I expect anything to go wrong, but because a low-speed scrape on a single-track passing place shouldn't cost you your deposit and your good mood.

Route advice for guests based near Kendal

If it's your first trip, I always suggest a shorter loop — Perthshire, Argyll and back — before you commit to a full Highland circuit. It gets you used to the van, and it means you're not doing a 200-mile day on the tail end of a tiring week. North West England makes a first motorhome week easy in a way that the far north-west doesn't.

Hiring from Kendal works. Hundreds of families and couples have done it since we opened, and the vast majority book again. Get in touch when you're ready — the earlier in the season, the more flexibility you'll have on van choice.
