South Lakes Motorhome Hire

We hired a motorhome from South Lakes Motorhome hire for the weekend and travelled to Silloth. From booking to pick up to drop off nothing was too much trouble and the videos were helpful and informative for amateurs like us. We would highly recommend hiring from them and we shall be doing so every time we want to hire a motorhome.

Just returned from touring the North West of Scotland... this is the second time we've used South Lakes Motorhome Hire... Sam and Adam provide a first class motorhome with a fantastic and friendly service...they provide loads of videos on how to operate all the many features that the motorhome has... this was excellent as we were new to it and made the holiday run very smoothly. We will definitely be booking with them again and would look nowhere else! 😀

Adam and Sam were amazing from our first enquiry to after our Mororhome hire. This was our first Motorhome holiday and we look forward to booking more with them. Supporting Local. Supporting small businesses.

We hired a motorhome from South Lakes Motorhome a couple of weeks ago. We travelled up to Scotland for 4 nights and thoroughly enjoyed our trip. The information videos were great but the information booklet in the motorhome was invaluable. Sam was extremely helpful and we felt reassured even though we were hiring a motorhome for the first time. It was comfortable, clean and very reliable. We would highly recommend South Lakes Motorhome Hire.Thank you Sam.

we hired a motorhome from Sam & Adam for 2 weeks, from the very first contact nothing was to much trouble, the motorhome when collected was in outstanding condition inside and out, also supplied with very handy videos òf how everything worked within the van, we had a fantastic 2 weeks, travelled across to the north east then up to falkirk, fom there to Loch Ness, down to Loch Lomond passing through Glen Coe, down to isle of whithorn and last couple of days in Luce Bay before returning home, the motorhome is very comfortable and easy to drive once you get use to the extra width and length, a fantastic motorhome and fantastic local company, a great 2 weeks neil & Julie and the 2 dogs Moss and Mac ( who also loved the adventure )

“2 weeks in motorhome” Just back from a great 2 week adventure in a motorhome hired from south lakes motorhome hire, from start to finish the hiring was brilliant, sam and adam couldn't do enough, motorhome was better than expected, the covid video's of how everything woked were fantastic, we did over a thousand miles and the van never missed a beat, the handback process was really easy and stress free, all in all a great local company

Excellent company . Will do business with them again

As first time motorhomers we really recommend South Lakes. Sam was helpful all the through from the booking process (with COVID) right the way through when using the motorhome. Couldn't recommend them enough.

Just got back from 6 days in Scotland, our first time renting an motorhome and we loved it. immaculate clean motorhome on arrival, helpful and friendly service provided throughout when needed via telephone. motorhome was warm and comfy with lots of space. highly recommend, definitely will be using south lakes motorhome hire in the future. Thankyou x

South Lakes provided a great service from start to finish. They were really helpful during the booking process and the motorhome was just as described and in great condition. The Covid video handover was good and it also meant you still had the videos to check during the trip. Sam was very helpful with hints and tips and also available to deal with any queries we had during the trip. Great people to deal with and I would highly recommend them.

Really enjoyed the time we spent with South Lakes Motorhomes 6 Berth camper. We spent a little time touring Inverness and around the cairngorms.Couldn't fault start to end of our experience, and to add Sam made it as easy and informative from the go. All in all a very smart and comfortable camper that I would recommend to anyone wanting this type of break/holiday. This was a new kind of mini break that we would normally have but I have to say we will making it more regular and I am sure we will be back.

Just come back from 2 weeks island hopping round Hebrides in to Swift Edge 486. Got fab service from Samwhen we booked, collected and returned the motorhome. She was happy to answer any of our questions and gave us some good hints and tips on getting the most put of the van. Very reasonable prices too and only charged for parts when a lorry clipped our wing mirror (unlike others who tried to charge us £400 for a small bumper scratch). Would definitely use them again. Thanks Sam.... Dave & Sarah, Cumbria.

We are just back from a week long trip around the north coast of Scotland. From start to finish the service from South Lakes Motorhome Hire was first class. Before our trip Sam helped us with some advice on planning our route and overnight stops. Before setting off we were provided with instruction videos on how everything on the motorhome worked, these were really helpful. On collecting the motorhome everything was really clean and ready to go. The motorhome itself is a really good size, easy to drive and straight forward to work all the controls. In the current climate having our own cooking and bathroom facilities was fantastic helping us to feel more at ease as we travelled around. We really enjoyed our trip and would definitely recommend South Lakes Motorhome Hire.

Fantastic service and amazing van. Have already recommended to friends. Sam was happy to answer any queries quickly via text and was really professional and helpful. Van was super clean and Covid arrangements were spot on giving a lot of confidence.

“Fantastic last minute summer holiday....” Fantastic service and amazing van. Have already recommended to friends. Sam was really helpful and professional and answered queries via text really quickly which was so helpful. Van was super clean and Covid-19 arrangements were spot on giving a lot of confidence.

Fantastic service, we hired the motorhome for an epic road trip around Scotland and didn’t have a single issue with the van. Pick up and drop off we’re handled safely and any concerns (it was our first motorhome experience!) were answered. Thanks guys!

Our first motorhome holiday didn't disappoint! Helped by great safe service from Sam and an awesome van our road trip around Scotland was fantastic. We have 3 children and they loved the motorhome adventure, it never felt too cramped either. Thanks guys, we definetley recommend!

“Scottish Road Trip” We hired the motorhome for our family of five trip around Scotland. We were away for along 4 weeks and the van just made the holiday even more fantastic! It was our first tome in a motorhome and we’re hooked! Great safe service from Sam and our many email prior to the hire we’re answered promptly. Would definitely recommend! Thanks guys.

Excellent customer service from beginning to end :)

The team at South lakes were fantastic at giving us lots of extra information with our trip as they had done the very same trip we were planning.....so could give lots of tips and advice. Really encouraging and helpful. We wanted to use a local firm rather than a national and their vehicles fit our requirements perfectly. would recommend.

“Even better than I imagined...and I've got a good imagination!!!” We decided we had had enough of tenting so tried a pod. Unfortunately our experience was less than great - everything except the tent had to be provided by us. Motorhomes seemed to offer a solution so we investigated and were delighted to find a source close to home in Barrow-in-Furness. We viewed the vehicle and liked what we saw so we booked. We've now enjoyed our first week in the Lake District with the Roller Team 707 from South Lakes Motorhome Hire and I can't see us going back to anything else!! For ease of driving, layout and overall comfort the home gets top marks. What also amazed us was how light it was inside. For customer support, even in the time of a pandemic, Sam gets a Gold Star. We have already booked for next year and, so popular is this supplier, we nearly weren't successful! If you want the best - guess you've got to think ahead and get your bid in early.

“Excellent motor home hire in lakes” Sam was excellent in the whole process, particularly given this was right at the beginning of opening up from COVID-19 lockdown. She prepared a number of videos to watch in order to learn the controls so that it could be done without close contact and they worked very well. The motor home was brand new and fitted out very well. It was quite comfortable for four of us and was especially welcome when the rain was coming in sideways with tents around us taking off! Thanks Sam for a great service and experience.

Just back from our first motorhome holiday touring through the Lake District. We hired a motorhome from Sam for our first experience as a family of 4 to see if we liked it, which we did, we all enjoyed travelling in the motorhome and look forward to doing it again.The motorhome was new, clean and well equipped. It comes ready with all the crockery and catering equipment you’ll need. The beds are comfortable, and has plenty of space for 4 people to live, eat, watch TV etc. There is plenty of storage spaces and the garage is very useful for loading up at the start. We had 4 bikes on the bike rack, and it was very easy to mount and secure them.The van was easy to drive, no more difficult than a car. Sam completed a very extensive handover at the start, so we were able to use all the functions of the van.Highly recommended!

New carmer vans evey two years top of the range wanting for nothing. Family run business and dog friendly

“Highly recommended” From start to finish the motorhome and the service was perfect. No hidden costs and a new motorhome that was clean and had everything we needed for our travels in the Lake District. Sam gave us a very extensive run down of everything we needed to know before we set off and provided a useful handbook with photos in case you forget anything during the handover.Very easy to drive and very spacious inside, particularly with just two of us. The garage area was useful to keep lots of things and the bike rack on the back was also nice and easy to use. Also very speedy return of our deposit following return of the vehicle.I would highly recommend this company and hope to be back sometime in the not too distant future!

Try before you buy. Sam gave us full details of the documentation required and the prices for hire from the onset (no hidden extras). At the pick up point we were given a thorough induction and also a very useful info pack, with good suggestions for a successful trip.The motor home worked perfectly, even though we took it on a fairly long journey.It was very clean on pick up and we'll appointed.At every stage Sam gave us excellent and well appreciated advice for this, our first trip in this type of vehicle (and actually this type of holiday).We would very much recommend South Lakes Motor home Hire to anyone thinking of trying a Motor home hire.

We hired a motorhome from Sam for our first experience as a family of 6 travelling on holiday together. This was our weekend practise run as we are booked to hire the van again in summer to tour Europe.The motorhome was clean and cosy. It comes ready with just the right amount of crockery and catering equipment for a homely trip. The beds are comfortable and the space is very manageable. There are plenty of little storage spaces and the 'garage' space is very useful. The van was good to drive, functions were straight forward to use, van maintenance easy to upkeep. Sam was extremely helpful and knowledgeable at all points of our hire. She was available to contact whilst on our trip and promptly helped us when we had a technical hiccup. This was very reassuring for us . Our family all enjoyed travelling in the Motorhome and we look forward to going again.

Hired the Van from Sam for the F1 GP 2018. Such knowledgeable people made the whole experience a pleasure. Very accommodating and helpful from start to finish.

Very impressed with this luxurious motorhome. it was simple to drive, economical on fuel and handling was as light as a feather. Full instructions were given and backed up with the instructions folder (with pictures) which was extremely useful as back up. Storage was amble for 6 and the sleeping arrangements were comfortable and cleverly designed to optimise space. Sam couldn't have been more helpful and made the whole process transparent, easy to follow and was professional and warm at the same time. Will definitely be using again!

We've just returned from 2 weeks touring Scotland in a South Lakes Motorhome & would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to hire.Samantha was great to deal with, from our first contact to ask whether our 3 dogs would be allowed, allowing us to view the motorhome before booking, providing us with information on campsites to help plan our trip, giving full instructions on everything in the motorhome on collection to checking it over on our return and refunding our security deposit within 1 day of return.The motorhome was very well equipped with most things you are likely to need during your holiday & the drop down bed was great to ensure our dogs stayed in their own beds rather than jumping on our bed as they do in our current caravan!Despite its size my husband found the motorhome very easy to drive and even commented after getting back into our own, much smaller car, that it felt heavier to drive than the motorhome!We hired the motorhome as a trial before we decide whether to upgrade our caravan or change to a motorhome & it's convinced us that a motorhome will be the way to go at some point in the future. In the meantime, I would certainly use South Lakes again.

Myself and my husband have just spent the first week of September in the highlands and couldn’t be happier with the motorhome from South Lakes Hire.Right from our first enquiry Sam was helpful, offered loads of info about where to stop and stay along with a much appreciated first visit to look at the motorhome.Sam is super organised and provides all the information you need for your trip, right through from the time of booking to the first day of hire.The motorhome is so well equipped and really luxurious to use and drive.Everything is provided from the comprehensive run through when you collect the motorhome to the literature and how-to guide included within.We had an amazing time and a very different experience from camping, which gave us a lot more freedom and luxury of choice.Sam was always available for any questions and incredibly helpful and a pleasure to speak with.We found the cost and flexibility offered by South Lakes great value and well worth it!This trip was very different to other times we have visited Scotland and Sam’s attention to detail, first class service and amazing motorhome made it what it was.Thanks Sam!Emma & Lee x

Just spent 2 wks touring Scotland and had a wonderful time. Sam was very helpful and knowledgeable and let us visit the van when we booked. We were in touch regularly before our holiday arrived and Sam was always on hand to answer an queries. On pickup day, we were given a very detailed run through all the equipment before we left. There was a useful folder full of information along with campsite guides and a good atlas.The van was big enough for all of us, 2 adults and 3 kids and 1 small dog. The van was well equipped and there was a thoughtful welcome pack to get us going, tea bags, coffee, biscuits etc. The van was clean, comfortable and we got into a routine quickly.We visited some wonderful places and stayed on some lovely sites and had a great time. Thank you

Best customer service ever. i enquired about a hire but sadly Sam had no availaibility, however she took time to provide links to others in the region and even followed up with me to check if i managed to book something.great effort and well done.

Would not hire from anyone else.everything was sorted out for is and explained.motorhome was all ready for us.would really recommend these.already booking it for next year xxxx

Hubby and I & our 3 dogs are just back from a 2 week tour of Scotland in a South Lakes Motorhome and would highly recommend it. The motorhome is lovely & is well equipped with most things we needed during our holiday.Sam was great to deal with, from our first enquiry about the dogs being allowed, allowing us to visit for a viewing before booking, giving us full instructions on everything on collection to the check over on return and refunding our security deposit within a day. We used this holiday as a trial before deciding whether to upgrade our current caravan or change to a motorhome & it's certainly helped us make up our mind that a motorhome is the best option for us. Although, unless we win the lottery, it won't be for a while so we might be back to hire one again in the future!

Great company to hire from

We first heard of South Lakes Motorhome Hire by chance, over breakfast with like minded holiday makers in the Dordogne earlier this summer. I had up until that point given up on finding such a genuine hire company . There are so many online operations purporting to have hundreds of vehicles available. It seems that most don’t actually own any, but scam owner/investors into letting out their perceived ‘pride and joy’ motorhome to all and sundry for little reward and much hassle to both themselves and their prospective hirers.We also needed a supplier willing to let our little dog Lucy travel with us. This appeared to be another obstacle with the few genuine companies we actually found. Not so for South Lakes Motorhome Hire, they gladly accept well behaved dogs (£30 fee) providing they are not allowed on the furniture or left in the vehicle unattended.South Lakes always run current model year vehicles and sell them on at the end of season. Our 7.3m long Auto Roller 707 was a gorgeous bit of kit! As we were traveling as a couple with a small dog we were able to leave the dining area set up and sleep in the full sized double bed which lowers electrically from the roof at bedtime, already made up. It apparently sleeps 7 but only has space for 6 people when on the move.The vehicle is registered with the Camping and Caravan Club, so discounted rates are available on sites run by them, a perk we used on at least a couple of the nights during our trip.Our week long trip took us through Scotland and onto Skye. The weather was atrocious for much of the time but we were always snug in our modern motorhome, equipped with a great heating system to keep us warm and an equally efficient fridge to keep the beer cool. Both work of the electric hook up when on a campsite or by gas if you fancy a night of wild camping.The company hold a £750 security deposit which I feared we might have seen the last of when I had to report a broken wing mirror early on in the week. I was instantly reassured by text message that all would be done to minimise the expense. I want to sing their praises as they kept true to their word. On arrival back in Barrow we were welcomed with a smile and told that they had already bought the spare parts £142 (receipt supplied) and if they could fit them themselves then there would be zero cost for labour. Later the same day I received an email confirming this was the case and the balance of the deposit was already back in my bank account.I look forward to our next trip and although Barrow is a little out of the way, I would make the diversion again for that added peace of mind.Thank you Sam & Adam.
