Touring Caravan Hire Skipton | From £195/Week | Yorkshire & Humber | Caledonian Tourers

Touring caravan hire in Skipton, Yorkshire & Humber. Site delivery or DIY tow, awnings and kit included from £195/week. Free tow-car matching.

Motorhome hire near Skipton isn't complicated when someone honest walks you through it. Our fleet lives in Perth, but the vast majority of our guests start their trip somewhere else in Scotland or the north of England, and Skipton sits comfortably inside our regular pick-up radius.

What campervan hire from Skipton actually looks like

From Skipton you're set up beautifully — the A9 opens the Highlands to the north, and heading south through Yorkshire & Humber 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.

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.

Every hire is fully-comp insured. The excess reduction is optional and worth it if you're new to a vehicle this size — Highland roads are narrow and one clipped mirror is enough to eat the excess. It's cheap peace of mind.

Route advice for guests based near Skipton

Route-wise, my honest advice for guests routing back to Skipton: 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. Yorkshire & Humber'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 Skipton 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.
