Motorhome and campervan hire in Andalusia

---

A guide to hiring a motorhome in Andalusia and planning your road trip

---

Do you dream of exploring Andalusia in complete freedom? Of watching the sun rise over a wild beach, waking up in the heart of the mountains, or staying out late in a white village without worrying about the time?

---

Hiring a motorhome or campervan is probably the best way to discover Andalusia.

---

This region in southern Spain has everything road trip enthusiasts could wish for: a sunny climate almost all year round, roads in excellent condition, extremely varied landscapes and an exceptional cultural heritage.

---

With your own vehicle, you’re free to change your itinerary as you please. Does a beach take your fancy? Stay an extra night. Has a village charmed you? Take the time to explore it. In a motorhome, you’re the one who decides.

---

This means you can enjoy both a vehicle and accommodation from €79 per day for a van and €89 per day for a motorhome. Prices vary depending on the season and model.

---

Why explore Andalusia in a motorhome?

---

Unlike a traditional holiday, you’re no longer tied to hotels, arrival times or bookings.

---

Your accommodation follows you wherever you go.

---

You travel at your own pace and make the most of every stop along the way.

---

---

In just a few days, you can go from:

• the beaches of the Costa del Sol to the cliffs of the Costa de la Luz
• the white villages of the Sierra de Grazalema to the snow-capped peaks of the Sierra Nevada
• the desert landscapes of Tabernas to the wild coves of Cabo de Gata

• from the historic streets of Seville, Córdoba or Granada to small, authentic villages still untouched by mass tourism.

Few regions in Europe offer such diversity.

---

If you have young children, I’d particularly recommend two villages: Parauta, with its enchanted forest and its gnomes and elves in the province of Málaga, and Soportujar, the village of witches in the province of Granada.

---

A perfect destination all year round

---

Andalusia enjoys over 300 days of sunshine a year.

Spring and autumn are ideal for exploring towns and natural landscapes.

Summer is perfect for enjoying the coast.

Even in winter, temperatures remain particularly pleasant along much of the coast.

---

Van or motorhome: which to choose?

---

It all depends on your travelling style.

---

The campervan

---

A campervan is particularly well-suited to:

• couples
• travellers looking for greater mobility
• short road trips
• people who want to drive a compact vehicle

---

The semi-integrated motorhome or coachbuilt motorhome

---

The semi-integrated motorhome offers more space whilst remaining very pleasant to drive. It’s an excellent choice for families.

---

The coachbuilt motorhome: its spacious interior allows you to travel in great comfort for several weeks.

---

Note: cars (saloon cars) are on average 4.50 metres long, vans are 5 metres long and motorhomes are 7 metres long.

---
