Your Home on Wheels Starts in Blackburn

Whether you're planning a weekend escape to the Lake District, a coastal road trip to Cornwall, or a longer adventure up to Scotland, finding the right campervan hire makes all the difference. Based at Appleby Business Park in Blackburn, GDH Camper Van Hire offers luxury VW T6 campervan hire for couples, families, dog owners and first-time travellers across the North West and beyond.

Why Choose GDH for Campervan Hire in Blackburn?

GDH is a family-run business with a straightforward focus - giving customers a comfortable, well-equipped campervan ready to go from the moment they collect it. Rather than arriving to an empty shell, you pick up a fully prepared VW camper with bedding, kitchen facilities, solar panels and storage all in place. It's a personal, customer-focused service that larger rental companies simply don't match.

With strong customer reviews highlighting immaculate vans, helpful staff and high-quality fit-outs, GDH has built a reputation as one of the most reliable options for campervan hire in Lancashire and the wider North West.

Meet the Fleet - Bertie and Boss

GDH currently offers two VW T6 campervans for hire, each with its own character.

Bertie

Bertie is the adventure-ready option - family-friendly, rugged and not afraid of a bit of mud. He sleeps 2 adults and 2 children, seats 4, is super dog-friendly and comes fully equipped with bedding, a kitchenette, solar panels and off-grid capability. Customers have praised Bertie for family trips, festival runs and weekend breaks, with mentions of his cosy twinkly roof lights adding a memorable touch.

Boss

Boss is the stylish, comfortable choice. Described by customers as a head-turner, smooth to drive and well-equipped, Boss offers the same 4-berth, 4-seat layout with dog-friendly interiors, bedding included, solar panels and off-grid capability. One customer review noted that Boss completed a Blackburn to London return on a single tank - a testament to both efficiency and comfort on longer UK road trips.

Both vans are diesel, manual drive, and available from £135 per day, with a minimum hire period of 2 nights.

What's Included in Your Hire

GDH campervans come prepared so you can focus on the journey, not the packing list. Included with every hire:

• Bedding - sleeping bags, duvets and pillows
• Kitchenette with cooking hob, fridge and utensils
• Solar panels for off-grid use
• Storage drawers and practical interior layout
• Dog-friendly setup in both vans
