Edinburgh Campervan Hire

Big Sky Campers (formerly Edinburgh Campervans) is a Scottish campervan hire specialist based in the heart of Edinburgh City Centre. As campervan and outdoor enthusiasts, we want to help you experience all the freedom and fun of a campervan holiday in beautiful Scotland. We have a small and lovingly cared for fleet of campervans sleeping between 2 and 4 people, kitted out with everything you’ll need for your trip. Unlike some campervan hire companies, we do not charge for accessories, so the prices we advertise are the prices you pay.

 There is no better way to explore Scotland than in your own campervan.  With no schedules or hotel reservations to make, you can go wherever you want and choose when to move on. So if you find that perfect deserted beach, or big night sky, you can just pitch up and stay as long as you want.  With one of our campers you’ll have the freedom to roam wherever you choose. All our vans are left unbranded so as not to spoil the dream. Choose your campervan, and pick up from Edinburgh and discover unspoilt Scotland. We are based in the centre of Edinburgh so it’s convenient for you to pick up your van whether arriving by train or plane.  Or if you are planning to spend a few nights in the city either end of your campervan adventure.

Our Campers

Land Rover Camping Scotland

Our campervans

We have 7 campervans available to hire. Our lovely VWs are Harry, Ruby & Betty. We also have two new automatic VW campervans to hire so new we haven’t named them yet (watch this space). Our stunning Land Rover camper, Wallace, is very popular. We are now also taking bookings for our new budget van, coming soon to replace our much loved and cute Mazda, Bongo. All have very different characters and offer all the fun and ease of a campervan adventure.

The Land Rover camper, Wallace, sleeps 2 and is a real head-turner. If you are looking for an off-road experience then Wallace is the one for you. Our VWs sleep 4 and are fitted out with everything you could need for a comfortable campervan holiday. They are very economical and as easy to drive as a large car. Our budget van is a 2 berther and a bit more basic than the VWs, but great fun, easy to drive and a great choice if you are on a tight budget.

Explore Scotland in a Campervan

Choose one of our vans and for less than the cost of hiring a car and staying in a B&B you can have the freedom of the open road and explore Scotland at your leisure.

Dog friendly camper van rental

If you can’t go on holiday without your pooch, we understand.  You are welcome to bring one dog along at no extra charge. If you do bring your best friend with you, all we ask that they don’t go on the upholstery and you return the vehicle without any sign they were there. All our vans are cleaned thoroughly between hires and we keep some vans dog-free in case of allergies. Bring your four legged friend on holiday this year in one of our campervans.
