Furthermore, we have 5 nation wide depots in Wigan, Wolverhampton, Blackburn, Preston and Edinburgh. Allowing you to hire in one and return in another, giving you full control of your road trip.

Tips for Hiring a Motorhome for the TT

Book Early
The TT is massively popular, and ferry space for motorhomes is limited. Book your Easicampers motorhome as soon as possible as we do fill up quickly.

Know the Vehicle Sizes Allowed
The Isle of Man Steam Packet Company (ferry operator) has restrictions on vehicle dimensions. When hiring, check that your motorhome meets the ferry’s size limits and declare it correctly to avoid issues.

Choose the Right Campsite
Some of the most popular TT campsites that welcome motorhomes include:

  • Glenlough Campsite
  • Union Mills TT Campsite
  • Braddan Bridge Campsite
  • Ballamoar Campsite

Make sure your chosen site offers electric hook ups if you want to run appliances like kettles or heaters. Go to Isle of Man campsites – 7 top camping sites! or Isle of Man TT Races© – Camping | Isle of Man TT Races© for more information.

Bring Essentials
Stock up on groceries before you board the ferry options on the island can get busy during race week. Also, bring your camping chairs, binoculars, and wet weather gear.

The Goodwood Festival of Speed 2026 is one of the most iconic automotive events in the world, a mix of high octane motorsport, heritage vehicles, cutting edge supercars, and world-class entertainment. Held annually at the historic Goodwood Estate in West Sussex, it’s a must-visit for car enthusiasts and adventure seekers alike. And what better way to experience it than from the comfort and convenience of a motorhome or campervan from Easicampers.

Why Choose a Motorhome for Goodwood?

Whether you’re attending for a day or the whole weekend, a motorhome or campervan gives you the perfect base right at the heart of the action.

Motorhome Hire Tips for Goodwood

  • Bring the Essentials: While your motorhome is well equipped, don’t forget extras like folding chairs, outdoor mats, and a good BBQ setup to experience the best that Goodwood has too offer.
  • Stay Powered Up: Some pitches offer electric hook-up, others don’t so plan your energy use and recognise what pitch you need and book to avoid disappointment.

Recommended Campsites for Motorhomes

  • Goodwood Campsite – The official site for the Festival Of Speed, just a short walk from the action.
  • Nearby Caravan Parks – Consider local parks within 10-20 minutes’ drive if other camping is full.

Make the Most of Your Goodwood Weekend

Hiring a motorhome doesn’t just solve your accommodation it transforms your entire festival experience. Wake up surrounded by the Sussex countryside to a full, motorsport packed day at Goodwood really transforms the event .

Fresh Water tank

It’s generally better to fill the fresh water tank of your Easicampers motorhome at the campsite when you arrive — here’s why:

✅ Reasons to fill at the campsite:

  • Weight & fuel efficiency: Water is heavy — 1 litre weighs 1kg. A 100-litre tank adds 100kg+ to your motorhome load, increasing fuel use.
  • Stability & handling: A full tank can affect how the motorhome drives, especially on winding or hilly roads.
  • Local rules: Some hire companies ask you to travel with an empty or partially filled tank to avoid unnecessary strain.
  • Water freshness: Filling at the campsite ensures the water is fresh, especially if you plan to drink or cook with it.

🚐 When to fill before setting off:

  • If you’re going wild camping or unsure whether the site has a water point.
  • If you’re stopping en route and want access to water (e.g. for a toilet, tea, or washing).
  • If the drive is very short and you prefer to arrive fully set up.

💡 Tip:

Many people travel with just 10–20 litres (enough for a toilet flush or quick rinse) and then fill up fully at the campsite.

Let me know if you’re planning wild camping or going to a remote site — advice might change a bit.

💧 Understanding Your Motorhome’s Water System

When you hire a motorhome from Easicampers Edinburgh, it’s important to understand how the water systems operate. Knowing the difference between grey and black water systems helps keep your vehicle clean and your trip running smoothly.

  • Grey Tap (Grey Water): This system collects wastewater from the sink and shower. Grey water is not harmful, but it can become smelly if left too long. It’s stored in a grey water tank that should be emptied regularly at motorhome service points or campsites. Proper maintenance of this system keeps the interior fresh and hygienic throughout your journey.
  • Black Tap (Black Water): This refers to the waste from the toilet. Black water is stored in a separate tank and must be emptied at designated chemical waste disposal points. Always use gloves and follow the instructions provided when emptying the black water tank to ensure safe and sanitary disposal.

Easicampers staff will give you a full demonstration of how to manage these systems before you leave, so you’ll feel confident on the road.
