Motorhome Hire in Bradford
Collect your motorhome from Pontefract, around 30 minutes from Bradford city centre. Explore Bronte Country, Saltaire, and the Yorkshire Dales in a fully insured 2, 4, or 6 berth Elddis motorhome from £135 per night.
Discover Bradford
Bradford sits where the industrial Pennine towns end and the open moorland begins. Drive ten minutes west and you are in Bronte Country. Drive twenty minutes north and you are on Ilkley Moor. The Yorkshire Dales are less than an hour away. That position, right on the edge of some of England's wildest landscape, makes motorhome hire from Bradford a genuinely practical starting point - and our Pontefract depot is around 30 minutes down the M606 and M62.
Bronte Country and the Moors by Motorhome
What sets Bradford apart for motorhome hire is Haworth. The hilltop village where the Bronte sisters wrote their masterworks is a short drive west from the city, up through Thornton and over the tops. The Bronte Parsonage Museum sits at the top of the cobbled Main Street, and from there you can walk straight out onto the moorland that inspired Wuthering Heights. The Keighley and Worth Valley Railway runs steam trains from Keighley through Haworth to Oxenhope - a journey worth making just for the scenery.
Beyond Haworth, the road climbs west over the Pennines toward Hebden Bridge and the upper Calder Valley. This is proper walking country, with long views and rough tracks across the tops. A motorhome lets you base yourself at a campsite near Haworth and explore without rushing back to a hotel.
Ilkley, Wharfedale, and the Gateway to the Dales
North of Bradford, the landscape opens up toward Ilkley and the broad sweep of Wharfedale. Ilkley Moor rises above the town with its famous Cow and Calf rocks - an easy but rewarding walk with views across lower Wharfedale. Below the moor, Ilkley itself is a handsome spa town with independent shops and good restaurants along the riverside. From Ilkley, the road continues northwest through Bolton Abbey, where the ruined 12th-century priory sits in one of the most photographed settings in Yorkshire. The Yorkshire Dales proper begin just beyond, with Malham Cove, Gordale Scar, and the Three Peaks area all within comfortable reach.
Saltaire and the Aire Valley
Saltaire deserves a visit before you set off. Built by Sir Titus Salt between 1851 and 1876, this UNESCO World Heritage Site is one of the finest planned industrial villages anywhere in the world. Salts Mill now houses the 1853 Gallery with the world's largest permanent collection of David Hockney paintings, alongside independent shops and a restaurant. The towpath along the Leeds and Liverpool Canal passes through Saltaire and connects to the Five Rise Locks at Bingley, one of the engineering wonders of the canal age.
Bradford Before You Hit the Road
The city itself is worth some time. The National Science and Media Museum draws visitors from across the country, and Bradford was the first UNESCO City of Film. Cartwright Hall in Lister Park houses the permanent art collection. Bradford's curry houses along Great Horton Road have earned the city its reputation as the curry capital of Britain - the Bradford Curry Awards draw national attention each year. Kirkgate Market offers a lively, authentic market experience, and the growing independent food scene is worth exploring before you collect your motorhome.

Where to Go From Bradford
The road network from Bradford opens up quickly. The A650 runs through Bingley and the Aire Valley toward Skipton and the Dales. The A629 heads north through Halifax toward the Calder Valley. The M62 gives you rapid access east toward York or west toward Manchester and the Lake District. Within an hour of leaving Bradford you can be in genuinely remote countryside, and a motorhome means you do not need to plan your route too rigidly - stop where looks good and stay as long as you like.

Common Questions About Motorhome Hire in Bradford
What Our Customers Say
“I recently booked a campervan for a short break to celebrate my partners 60th birthday. The whole experience from the initial contact/enquiry with Ryan to our trip around the Lake District and over to Northumberland was so easy. Ryan was always on the end of the phone for any questions or simply with help and encouragement. The van was new to Heaths, the 2/4 berth Elddis and it was very well equipped and easy to set up, everything we needed for our first time. We loved it and will definitely be booking again.”

“We hired two motorhomes from Ryan to travel to St Ives for 7 days, we had the best time & the van's are great! So many features in them made our trip very easy & stress free. Ryan was super helpful & allowed us to extend our stay without a problem. We will be recommending to our friends & are looking forward to renting them again for our next trip away! Thanks again Ryan”
“This was out first experience of traveling away in a motorhome with zero previous experience. Ryan could not have been more helpful from the first time of taking the enquiry to the handover process. We did have a few questions about how certain things worked whilst we were away and he responded immediately without any fuss. Ryan could not have done any more and went above and beyond what we ever expected to make our experience as simple, easy and enjoyable as possible. First class service from start to finish would definitely have no hesitation in recommending and we are already trying to plan our next motorhome holiday with Heaths Motorhomes!”
“This was the first time we had hired a mobile home. Ryan made this an easy experience, with full demonstration of the features and phone back up if required. He also offered plenty of good advise for our trip. The home was in spotless, well equipped and was perfect for our needs. Collection and drop off was easy and very close to the A1. We will certainly use Heaths Motorhomes again.”
“Top service from Ryan, Very helpful from start to finish. Myself and my wife hired the motorhome for our trip around the NC500, Everything was very clean and easy to use straight away. Ryan was only a phone call or Message away if we needed any advise. Would highly recommend using Heaths Motorhome Hire for any occasion”
“We rented one of Healths luxury motorhomes for a month. The motorhome was beautiful, clean and spacious and very comfortable to drive and we should know as we drove more than 2500 miles around europe. Me, my husband, our 14yr old son and our dog enjoyed everything about the motorhome. It had everything we needed for our epic family adventure. Now moving on to Ryan, the owner of this small company, from day 1 (back in January) he's been very responsive to ALL my messages, before the collection he sent us alot of information ready for our holiday, during the month of rental he has been on hand as and when we needed him and when my handbag was stolen with our passports in, he showed nothing but empathy and sympathy and went out of his way to make everything less stressful for us. I'm extremely greatful for his exceptional service and personal attitude.”
“I cannot thank Ryan and Heaths Motorhome hire enough, it was a long time in the making to surprise my partner for his 40th Birthday. We have just got back from our trip in Wales and it was fantastic! The motorhome was immaculate, communication prior, in the week leading up and during our trip was amazing! Ryan was hands on, when we needed anything even though he was on a family holiday himself. The whole experience was one we will never forget and we’re already planning our next trip! Could not recommend Heaths Motorhome hire enough, simply amazing! Thank you so much!”
“Hired a motorhome from Ryan for 5 nights Wow! What a way to make a trip. As avid campers we decided to take the plunge and hire a motorhome to and a bit of comfort to our lakes trip with our 8 year old, and it couldn’t have made it anymore perfect! It had everything we could possible need and more. It was also incredibly spacious and our son loved the ceiling bed and we all had a great nights sleep. Having so much storage was a big bonus and it was super cosy inside at night. The entire process of hiring and collecting was super easy and Ryan was constantly on hand to check if we needed anything or had any questions. I cannot recommend enough, already deciding where we can go next and hire again!”
“After an incredible 3000-mile European road trip with the family, I can't recommend Heath's Motorhome Hire enough. We traveled all the way from the UK to Stockholm, Sweden, crossing the impressive Øresund Bridge and making memorable stops at Öland and Lake Vättern. Along the way, we drove through and stayed in six other countries—Holland, Germany, Denmark, Luxembourg, Belgium, and France—and our motorhome was absolutely faultless the entire time. The motorhome was meticulously maintained and provided the perfect, comfortable base for our travels. The interior was so cozy, allowing us to get some well-deserved rest after long days of driving and sightseeing. A huge thank you to Ryan for making this unforgettable trip possible. His service was exceptional, responsive, supportive, knowledgeable, everything you need! We'll definitely be booking with him again for our next adventure!”
“We have just got back from an amazing time on the South Coast, The Motorhome was immaculate and Ryan was always on hand if we needed anything. We had 4 kids with us so I wasn’t sure what to expect but the kids had the most amazing time and loved motorhome life. Highly recommend and we will definitely book again.”
“Our first time renting a motorhome and honestly, we couldn't have found a better company to do it with. Everything has been so easy. From the booking to the collection and drop off. The orientation session was a really great service and allowed a novice like me to get an understanding of everything. Communication has been first class all the way through with Ryan and you just know he's there if you need him (which, because of the quality of the vehicle and the orientation session, weren't needed). Can't recommend Heaths enough. If you're considering hiring a motorhome, don't look anywhere else. Trust me.”
“First class service from Ryan, very helpful from the get go. We hired one of his motorhomes for a trip to Silverstone for my husband and daughter, a 6 birth for 2 definitely gave them both plenty of space, everything was very clean and easy to use. Ryan was only a phone call away if needed but everything ran smoothly. Will be booking it again for next yeas trip”
“Amazing holiday to Scotland, the van was huge, with everything we needed and more. Can’t give enough stars. Thanks for helping us finally get the NC500 ticked off our list.”
“Amazing van and service from Ryan. Top spec camper van hire with great comms, hand over and overall experience. We will be recommending to all our friends and family.”
“Back from our first motorhome trip as a family of 4 around South Wales and what a week it was! I was pleasantly surprised at how comfortable the Motorhome is with plenty of storage space (even for an overpacker like myself). The van has all the amenities you need and more. Ryan was absolutely amazing explaining everything and quickly replying to our many questions before and during the trip. We will definitely be booking through this company again and I would highly recommend. Thanks for making our first motorhome adventure a success!”
“We’ve just come home from a wonderful week away! The van was very modern, clean and well equipped. Ryan was a great host, nothing was too much trouble for our 121 questions 😂 We have already had people ask us about hiring and I hope as many people enjoy this kind of experience! Heaths Motorhomes is the way to do it!”
“We had a wonderful holiday touring Scotland in a Heaths motor home, staying in Loch Lommond, Isle of Skye, Dornoch, Stirling and Falkirk, finally landing back in England with a couple of days in Bamburgh. The van was an absolute delight to drive and live in for the 12 day tour and Ryan went above and beyond from start to finish, explaining the workings of the vehicle with back up videos. We are already planning next year with a tour of the south coast! Highly recommended.”
“OG FRIENDLY 🐾 ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ We took a chance on hiring a motorhome for our Scotland road trip – just me, the husband, and one of our dogs – and honestly, we’re now completely converted (pun fully intended). From start to finish, it was a dream. Comfort was top of the list – we clocked up 5–6 hour drives with zero numb bums or backache. The convertible bed? Surprisingly lush! We’ve done Aussie motorhome trips before and this was in a different league – spacious enough for both of us to sleep soundly without an elbow in the face. The motorhome was spotless, well laid out, and had way more storage than we expected – and we didn’t even fill half of it. Bug blinds on every window and door meant we could let the breeze in without inviting in the midges. Dog friendly? Absolutely – and that’s a non-negotiable for us. Lily was living her best life. Customer service was brilliant. Ryan was helpful from the start and incredibly responsive with any questions we had. Nothing was too much trouble, and he was really accommodating to our specific needs. He came highly recommended by a trusted mechanic mate, so we didn’t even shop around – and I’m so glad we went with him. We’ve now discovered that motorhome life is very much for us. I’m a bit of a snob and my husband has mild OCD, so it’s luxury motorhome hire or nothing from here on out. Ryan, you’ve set the bar!!”
“Just had a week in Scotland in 1 of the camper vans. The van was very clean and had everything we needed. Heaths made everything run smoothly from pick up to drop off. I have recommend them to all my friends and family and will be using them again.”
“Hired 2 vans off Ryan for 2 families to take a trip to south of France for 2 weeks, and the whole experience was amazing! Ryan was so helpful right from the first message and especially whilst away learning the ropes of how to work everything Vans come fully stocked with everything needed, even cleaning products- all insurance breakdown etc covered which meant we could just pick it up and off we go! First time doing anything like this and I'm sure it won't be the last! Thank you for everything 😊”
