Where can you rent a RV?

There are many great starting points for a unique road trip through Scotland, but due to its central location, Glasgow is the best place to rent a RV. From here, you can reach Scotland's most beautiful sights in just a few hours and it's not far to the airport either.

What should you look out for when renting a RV?

There are a few things to consider when renting a RV in Glasgow. Firstly, you should check in advance how the vehicle is insured and whether you have to pay an excess in the event of damage. If you want to rent a RV in Glasgow, you should also be aware that left-hand traffic applies in Scotland. Also, if more than one person is renting the RV, it should be clarified beforehand whether additional drivers have to be paid extra.

Starting from Glasgow with a RV

There's a reason why Glasgow, Scotland's largest city, is one of the most popular holiday destinations for nature lovers and RV holidaymakers. Not only the evergreen wide landscape with its many rivers, lakes and waterfalls attract holidaymakers to Glasgow. The fascinating Scottish culture, numerous castles, palaces and historic ruins also invite visitors to immerse themselves in Scotland's past.

To really take in Glasgow and its varied surroundings, you should rent a RV. Travelling at your own pace, relaxing in beautiful places, the absolute independence and the possibility to stay in the most secluded areas make your holiday a real adventure.

With a RV, you get to know Glasgow from its best side and can really soak up Scotland's partly untouched nature.

The best time to hire a RV in Glasgow

Scotland and its unique landscape are worth a visit by RV all year round and every season offers an unforgettable adventure. Due to the warm Gulf Stream, Scotland has a temperate climate all year round with mild winters and summers that are not too hot.

Although many campsites are closed in winter, this is not a hindrance as wild camping is allowed everywhere in Scotland. Therefore, Scotland is perfect for renting a RV all year round.

In spring (March, April, May), the country enchants with its blossoming landscape and unique nature. Trees, flowers and plants come back to life, you can watch the first young animals playing, the fishing season begins and in the famous whisky month there are numerous traditional festivities to marvel at. Especially if you want to rent a RV, you will find many secluded spots in the middle of nature at this time of the year.

The summer months (June, July, August) not only score with the most sun, but also with the traditional Highland Games, which are celebrated here every year. More tourists are attracted to Scotland in summer, which is why you should rent a motorhome to enjoy a few relaxing days away from busy touristy spots.

In autumn (September, October, November) the landscape turns into a golden sea of colourful leaves and the first migratory birds can be seen on their way. Even in autumn, there are still numerous festivities around Glasgow, such as St Andrews Day. Due to the mild climate, autumn is still a wonderful time to explore Scotland in a RV.

Even winter offers nature lovers and RVs a unique natural spectacle when the sometimes rugged landscape is covered with glistening snow. The many traditional Christmas markets, Christmas festivals and Hogmanay (traditional, huge New Year's Eve celebration with numerous street parties) are also not to be missed at this time of the year. If you still want to rent a RV in winter, you won't regret it. However, you should remember to bring warm clothing so that the road trip is a unique experience.

What should you look out for when renting a RV in Glasgow?

Road traffic

If you are travelling by RV in Glasgow, there are a few things you should be aware of. Firstly, you have to get used to driving on the left-hand side of the road in Scotland, but this usually happens quickly. As there are also many roundabouts in Scotland, you should always remember to enter the roundabout on the left and vehicles coming from the right always have the right of way.

Tolls

There are no tolls in Glasgow and all roads and bridges can be used without concern.

Speed limits

In most parts of Scotland the speed limit is always signposted. If there are no signs, the following always applies:

  • on the motorway 70 mph (112 km/h)
  • on dual carriageways 112 mph (96 km/h)
  • in built-up areas 30 mph (48 km/h)
  • in residential areas, especially near schools 20 mph (32 km/h)
  • outside built-up areas 60 mph (96 km/h)

Drivers licence

People from EU member states are also allowed to drive all vehicles shown on their drivers licence in Scotland without any restrictions. When renting a RV in Glasgow, however, you should always state your age, as some operators have age limits for RVs.

Drink-drive limit

Unlike the rest of the UK, Scotland has a stricter drink-drive limit of 0.5 and those who exceed the limit can face heavy fines.

Petrol stations

Most petrol stations in Scotland are generally open 24 hours a day. Opening hours can vary only occasionally, and petrol stations usually close at 10 pm. If you are planning a trip with your RV to remote places, you should fill up beforehand, as there are sometimes no petrol stations in the smaller towns.

Supermarkets and other shops

Supermarkets and other shops are usually open from 9am to 5pm, even at weekends. Bars, pubs and restaurants are mostly open until 0.00 a.m. and only the nightclubs are open longer.
