Renting a campervan or motorhome in Bordeaux is the ideal starting point to discover the famous vineyards of southwest France or to explore the rocky Atlantic coast of the Basque Country.

Below we share practical information on hiring a campervan in Bordeaux, so all you have to do is choose your vehicle according to your needs and set off on your adventure!
When you hire a campervan in Bordeaux you can be on the road right away, trusting that your roadsurfer home on wheels is fully stocked. Your campervan comes with an awning, camping table and two chairs to enjoy the space outside of your vehicle. The kitchen box allows you to save money on eating out: you’ve got all the pots, pans, and utensils to cook up your own meals. There’s even a corkscrew and bottle opener, and a coffee pot, plus mugs for your morning coffee or tea, although you’ll want to bring dish towels, sponges, and eco-friendly dish soap. When you rent a small motorhome from Bordeaux you will need to bring your own bedding, or you can hire what you need from the roadsurfer station. Full details of what’s included in your motorhome hire, and our suggestions on what to bring along to your Bordeaux campervan holiday can be found in the equipment list.
The best time to visit Bordeaux and the South West of France is from mid-May to October. Being in the heart of one of the world’s most prestigious wine regions, September and October are particularly good for visiting the vineyards and tasting the delicious wines. And, although this might not be the first thing to come to your mind when you think of Bordeaux, there is a year-round surfing hot spot on the Cote d’Argent. There are also many summer events, such as the Fête du Vin and the Fête de la Mer, and one of the most popular festive gatherings in the region, the Fêtes de Bayonne at the end of July. We advise you to avoid the low season due to the heavy rainfall.
When you start your campervan road trip, one of the first things to do is to fill it up with clean water so that you can be more independent. You will also need to empty the grey water before you return your roadsurfer rental at the specialised motorhome service areas on your journey back. The closest location to our roadsurfer station is:
To ensure a smooth return of your roadsurfer rental, please make sure to have a full tank of diesel and AdBlue. The closest petrol station to our Bordeaux location is:
