RV rental Bournemouth, ENG: Motorhome rentals, camper van rentals and more

Some of southern England's most celebrated natural sites and parks are located less than 100 miles away from Bournemouth. One of these is the aptly named Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site just two and a half hours east in a Bournemouth RV rental. You can spend a day combing the Charmouth coast for fossils or explore the Walk Through Time to see layers of sedimentary rock dating back more than 185 million years. From here, press on to Dartmoor National Park, 45 minutes further down the coast, or head north to Exmoor National Park, only an hour away. Both parks take pride in their wild, open moorlands and valleys; both are teeming with wildlife, and both offer plenty of outdoor adventures to get excited about. Walking, cycling, horseback riding, camping, and canoeing are just some of the most popular activities here. Exmoor National Park in particular is renowned for its remote, rugged, and bush-clad coastline. In some places, the park's physical features are some of the oldest on earth, at 200 million years old. Much closer to Bournemouth are several AONBs: Dorset, Blackdown Hills, East Devon, Cranborne Chase, and the Isle of Wight. The New Forest National Park is closest, just half an hour drive northeast in your Bournemouth camper rental. Dorset is famous for its coastal cliffs; Blackdown Hills for its lack of major towns and cities and its consequently serene atmosphere; East Devon for its geologic records spanning 415 million years of Earth's history; and Cranborne Chase for its ancient woodlands and open countryside views of rolling hills and chalk escarpments. The New Forest is best known for its thousands of native wild ponies that graze in the open forest. Originally the hunting grounds of William the Conqueror, The New Forest is now a protected natural area. The Isle of Wight AONB is just a ferry ride across the water and celebrated for its breathtaking white cliffs that shine under the UK’s typically dark skies. A short distance offshore is The Needles, a row of three chalk stacks that protrude from the water, waiting to take down inexperienced sailors.
