Why choose Luton Airport for your road trip

Luton Airport — a city worth exploring

Luton Airport sits just 51 km north of central London, yet it serves as a gateway to some of England's most rewarding countryside. The airport itself is located near the town of Luton in Bedfordshire, where the Chiltern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty begins its gentle chalk escarpments. Wardown House, Museum and Gallery showcases local history and decorative arts beside a peaceful park, while the nearby Stockwood Discovery Centre houses the Mossman Collection of horse-drawn carriages. Whipsnade Zoo, operated by the Zoological Society of London, lies just 11 km to the south-west, and the medieval market town of St Albans is only 19 km to the south-east, home to the magnificent St Albans Cathedral. The landscape around Luton is ideal for touring — rolling hills, quiet B-roads and well-maintained dual carriageways connect you to the Cotswolds, Cambridge and the Norfolk coast without battling London traffic. Hiring a campervan or motorhome through Yescapa means you can collect your vehicle from a local owner close to the airport, skip the queues of traditional hire depots and start your adventure within minutes of landing. With peer-to-peer options ranging from compact campervans to fully equipped family motorhomes, you can tailor your trip to suit your group and your budget right from the doorstep of Bedfordshire.

Best time to visit

Luton Airport is busiest from June to September, when families head out on summer road trips across England. If you plan to visit during the St Albans Beer Festival in late September or the Dunstable Downs Kite Festival in July, book your campervan early through Yescapa to secure the best peer-to-peer rates. Spring and autumn bring quieter roads through the Chiltern Hills and more availability at local campsites, making them excellent months for a motorhome tour. Winter departures from Luton suit city breaks to Cambridge or Oxford, where you can park up and explore on foot.

What our users say about our campervans and motorhomes in Luton Airport

Sandra Jane
5 / 5

We had a great holiday in our Elddis CV40 campervan. Everything ran smoothly from start to finish. Absolutely no hiccups or problems. Everything was easy to navigate and use and all we asked for was provided for. Thank you Alexander and your team, we had a superb time. Very comfortable!

John
5 / 5

We had a great three-day rental experience. Vincenzo was incredibly friendly, accommodating, and helpful throughout the trip. He was always available to recommend good places to park for the night and even sent us pins for places worth checking out, which made things really easy. The van is definitely a little well-loved, but it runs great and has and did everything we needed. It even gave me a chance to brush up on my rusty stick-shift driving skills! We’d rented a camper van before, and there’s something really cool about being able to open everything up at night, park in the right spot, and just enjoy the surroundings. Overall, it was a really fun experience, and Vincenzo made the whole thing especially easy.

We had the most wonderful time in this charming van. Ana and Jaume were super caring and attentive, and the motorhome was an absolute joy. 2 lovely weeks and we were reluctant to give it back.
