Why hire a campervan or motorhome in Belfast International Airport

Belfast International Airport — a region worth exploring

Belfast International Airport, located just 21 km northwest of Belfast city centre near the town of Aldergrove in County Antrim, handles over five million passengers each year and serves as Northern Ireland's busiest airport. From here, the legendary Causeway Coastal Route stretches 195 km along the Antrim coast to Londonderry, passing the Giant's Causeway, Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, and the Dark Hedges — a beech tree avenue made famous by its appearance in Game of Thrones. Heading south, the Mourne Mountains sit roughly 80 km from the airport, offering dramatic peaks and forest parks ideal for overnight stops in a campervan. The shores of Lough Neagh, the largest freshwater lake in the British Isles, lie just 10 km to the east, while the historic walled city of Londonderry is approximately 115 km to the northwest. Northern Ireland's compact size makes it remarkably easy to explore by motorhome — you can reach almost any corner within a couple of hours. Belfast itself offers the Titanic Quarter, St George's Market, and the Cathedral Quarter for a memorable first or last night of your trip. With Yescapa, you can hire a campervan directly from local owners based in and around Belfast, choosing from a range of vehicles to suit your group size and travel style. It is a practical, personal way to begin your Northern Ireland adventure right from the airport doorstep.

Best time to visit

May to September is the prime window for a campervan trip from Belfast International Airport, with long daylight hours stretching past 10 pm in midsummer. The Belfast International Arts Festival runs each October, offering a cultural reason to extend the season. Spring brings wildflower displays along the Causeway coast, while autumn colours transform the Mourne Mountains. Campsites across Northern Ireland are generally open from Easter through to October, so booking through Yescapa during shoulder months like May or September often means quieter roads and more competitive hire prices from local owners.

Both Jesus and Susana were very communicative and made the rental process very easy. The van is basically new in very good condition and easy to handle. It was fun cooking in remote places having a beautiful view and having a large fridge really helped to keep all cool and fresh. We had a nice time with it and would certainly recommend it to others.
