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

Motorhome hire near South Shields 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 South Shields sits comfortably inside our regular pick-up radius.

What campervan hire from South Shields actually looks like

The advantage of hiring from Perth rather than a city hub, if you're coming down from South Shields, is that you skip the ring-road traffic and you're on a proper touring road inside twenty minutes. North East England rewards people who take the scenic option, and a well-fitted motorhome is exactly the way to do it.

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)

Pricing for 2026 sits between £495 and £1,295 per week depending on the season. I'd rather you paid a fair price and had a brilliant trip than paid a suspicious price and spent your first night trying to work out why the heater won't come on. Everything we quote is inclusive, and the deposit is fully refundable on return.

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 South Shields

Route-wise, my honest advice for guests routing back to South Shields: 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 East England's coast has plenty of week-length loops that finish you back near home without the panic.

The easiest next step from South Shields is a five-minute call. I'll ask a couple of questions — dates, party size, where you fancy — and tell you which van fits and whether the dates are wide open or getting tight. No pressure, no upsell, and if we can't help I'll point you to someone honest who can.
