Scotland is a truly breathtaking country. From the rolling hills and rugged coastlines to the historic cities and fascinating culture, there is something for everyone in the small but mighty country of Scotland.   

Thousands of tourists flock to Scotland each year, but with many of Scotland’s most sought-after locations found out of the way and inaccessible by public transport, many visitors find themselves stuck trying to work out the best way to see Scotland.  

The answer is simple, however; Motorhome hire in Scotland.  

Hiring a motorhome in Scotland gives tourists a chance to travel to the most remote areas of Scotland, with no need to worry about sorting accommodation or finding restaurants. Motorhome life provides you with a freedom that is hard to find with any other type of holiday and, in our opinion, is perfectly suited to Scotland.

Why choose motorhome hire in Perth? 

Perth is a small but historically important city located towards the East of Scotland.  

Known as the former Scottish capital of years gone by, Perth still holds much of its ancient charm and is well worth a visit. The city is situated along the River Tay and enjoys a quiet pace of life, with many churches, cafes, boutique shops and welcoming restaurants found throughout the city. 

Perth is often referred to as the “Gateway to the Highlands”, with Cairngorms National Park located directly North of the city. It makes for a perfect starting point for any road trip and is an ideal location for hiring a motorhome.  

The Struans motorhome depot is located outside the city centre of Perth, and is well connected to all the main roads running through the city. Upon collection of your motorhome hire, you'll have fantastic route options to get your motorhome holiday off on the right foot.  

From Perth, you could choose to:

• Head West along the A85 towards Loch Lomond & The Trossachs National Park, one of Scotland’s most beloved beauty spots. After visiting the surrounding areas you can drive up the West Coast of Scotland where you’ll find many of best sites one can visit in a motorhome. 

• Head south along the M90 to explore the Kingdom of Fife and all the wonderful coastal towns that are dotted throughout this region. 

• Head East along the A90 toward Dundee. From there you can drive up the east coast of Scotland to the famous city of Aberdeen, where you’ll find plenty of castles and other historical sites in the nearby regions. From here you’ll be perfectly positioned to travel into the Scottish Highlands.
