Motorhome & Campervan Rental

If you’re planning on flying to Europe and hiring a campervan or motorhome on arrival, Indie Campers are absolutely the best choice. With a great range of locations and outstanding reviews, you’ll love their offer.
Insurance
Our trusted insurance partner, who has insured our motorhomes for years. We always receive excellent and personal customer services, often speaking to the same staff time and again.
Our favourite travel and medical insurer. Don’t worry if you’ve already been abroad for months on end, they don’t need your last ten years of address information! They also offer the most comprehensive activities cover on their backpacker policy that we’ve seen, offering sports as standard that other insurers don’t include. And don’t worry, they are still often the best value for money!
Motorhome Equipment
Always our top choice for motorhome accessories and products, due to the superior quality. If you’re looking for an awning, bike rack or door locks, then this is the best brand.
Motorhome Workshops
If you’re in the south of England, Solar Solutions offer everything you need for your motorhome. Not only can they supply and fit solar panels, but they also deal with refillable gas, satellite systems, electrics, SOG loos and lots more. They always provide great service, working to your timelines at a fair price.
If you’re in Spain we can highly recommend Caravanas Murcia, just outside the city of Murcia. Their workshop can deal with anything you need fixing or fitting and the staff speak English too. They have fitted a reversing camera and SOG loo for us and identified and fixed issues with the fridge and solar panels with all work completed to a high standard.
