Touring Caravan Hire Nelson | From £195/Week | North West England | Caledonian Tourers

Touring caravan hire in Nelson, North West England. Site delivery or DIY tow, awnings and kit included from £195/week. Free tow-car matching.

If you've been Googling "campervan hire Nelson" and hitting a wall of shiny websites with no phone number, I understand the frustration. We're a small family operation — you'll usually get me (Andrea) on the phone, and I'll tell you the same thing I tell everyone: come and see the van, then decide.

What campervan hire from Nelson actually looks like

From Nelson you're set up beautifully — the A9 opens the Highlands to the north, and heading south through North West England you're on holiday-park country and coast within a couple of hours. We hand you a fully-fuelled, fully-stocked van and a route map that matches what you told us you actually want out of the week.

Handover takes an hour, sometimes ninety minutes, and I won't rush it. You'll drive the van around our yard before you leave, set up the awning, connect the hook-up, and light the hob, so nothing on your first night is a surprise. Guests from further afield sometimes stay in a local B&B the night before and collect fresh in the morning — I'll happily book them in with someone I trust.

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

Our 2026 price freeze runs the season out at last year's numbers — low season from £495 a week, mid-season around £795, and peak (school holidays and the Highland shoulder) £1,195 to £1,295. That's fully inclusive: bedding, kitchen kit, gas, awning, chairs and the mileage you'd actually use in a week. No fake-cheap headline followed by a £300 "cleaning fee" on the way back.

You're covered on our fully-comp policy from the second you drive off the yard. Ask about excess-reduction if you want the excess brought down; it's an add-on rather than a hidden compulsory fee.

Route advice for guests based near Nelson

Route-wise, my honest advice for guests routing back to Nelson: don't try to do the full NC500 in five days. It's a wonderful road but it punishes tight itineraries. Take a week, add two days, or shorten it — the Highlands are better savoured than sprinted. North West England's coast has plenty of week-length loops that finish you back near home without the panic.

If you're on the fence, come and see the van. Perth is a comfortable drive from Nelson and I'd rather you looked round for twenty minutes than book blind. It's the surest way to know whether motorhome touring is really for you before you commit a deposit.
