Top 10 Motorhome Travel Tips - Scottish Highlands

• Don't Trust Google Maps Blindly - always double-check if the road is actually suitable for motorhomes before heading off

• Skip the viral spots sometimes – take the scenic detour, explore without a plan… those hidden gems often become the highlight

• Pre-book campsites in peak season – especially on busy routes like the NC500. Last-minute spots can be hard to come by

• Pack for all weather – even if the forecast looks clear. Trust us

• Don’t over plan – Highland roads can be slow and very scenic. Give yourself space to stop and soak it all in

• Take cash – some remote shops, cafés, and honesty boxes don’t take cards

• Phone signal is patchy – bring games, books, or a deck of cards for evenings off-grid

• Catch live music in a local pub – even if you’re not a drinker, the atmosphere is something else

• Plan waste disposal and fuel stops – use designated motorhome service points and never empty waste in the wild. Plan your route to include proper facilities as well as fuel stops

• Choose the right motorhome – it makes a huge difference to your comfort and experience. Our team’s always happy to help you pick the perfect one
