Why Spring is the Ultimate Season for an Epic Campervan Road Trip with Vdubline

There’s something undeniably magical about Spring,  that sense of renewal, longer sunlit days, and the world bursting back into life after winter’s chill. For anyone with a spirit of adventure, Spring isn’t just a great time to travel,  it’s the best time to hit the open road in a campervan. At Vdubline, where we specialise in the perfect VW campervan hire for journeys across the UK and Europe, Spring offers the ideal backdrop for unforgettable memories on wheels.

1. Perfect Weather — Without the Summer Swelter

One of the biggest perks of planning a campervan road trip in Spring is the weather. Temperatures are mild, cool enough to appreciate the fresh air but warm enough to sit outside with a coffee at sunrise. Compared to the often overwhelming heat of summer, Spring offers warm breezes and gentle sunshine that make exploring peaks, valleys, coastal paths and countryside routes that much more comfortable. This balance of warmth and freshness also makes outdoor cooking, hiking, cycling and sightseeing all the more enjoyable.

2. Fewer Crowds Means More Freedom

Spring sits in that fantastic travel window known as the “shoulder season.” What does that mean? Simply put, it’s before the peak summer rush, so iconic spots, scenic campsites and charming villages are quieter, giving you more space to discover hidden gems at your own pace. Whether you’re cruising the North Coast 500, following coastal roads or exploring sleepy National Parks, fewer tourists mean you’re free to savour those moments fully.

3. Nature’s Greatest Show

There’s nothing quite like Spring on the road. The landscape literally comes alive, blossoms, wildflowers, rivers fed by snowmelt and vibrant green fields provide an inspiring, ever-changing backdrop outside your campervan door. It’s the perfect time to reconnect with nature, take morning walks, picnic beside lakes, catch a sunset over a ridge, or simply watch the world wake up with a cup of tea.

4. Better Value for Your Adventure

Travelling in Spring often comes with practical benefits too. With fewer people on the road, accommodation, campsites and even travel costs can be more wallet-friendly compared to summer. Whether you’re a seasoned road tripper or planning your first big campervan adventure, these savings can go towards longer stays or extra experiences en route.

5. The Freedom of Your VW Home on Wheels

Explore our Campervan Hire options for Spring adventures. Vdubline offers a fleet of beautifully maintained VW Transporter campervans — from classic favourites like Betsy and Mary-Jane to the easy-to-drive Albie. Each campervan is designed with comfort, reliability and style in mind, making them ideal for couples, families, and friends ready to explore the UK and beyond.

With everything you need on board, from comfy sleeping layouts to cleverly organised storage, your Spring road trip becomes less about logistics and more about living in the moment. Park up wherever your heart leads and make every sunrise, sunset and roadside stop part of your story.

Spring awakens more than just landscapes, it reawakens travel dreams. So this year, swap the ordinary for an epic road trip in a Vdubline campervan and let the season inspire your journey.

Testimonials

"VDubline were so so great. I honestly couldn’t recommend this company anymore. They were friendly and professional in all aspects. Made the whole process for renting the vans enjoyable and exciting. We had a fab time and I will most definitely be going back for more adventures from these guys and their amazing vans"

Rosie Egan

"Had another few days with Betsy, on my own this time. She is so easy to drive and to operate that I felt quite happy taking off for my own little adventure. If you are thinking about it, do it. When you hit problems (like how to put the wing mirrors in, where to put the diesel in, how to lock the van from within at night so that the alarm doesn't go off when you move) you just ring Alex for help - or google the How To video and watch it properly"

Jacqui Grant

"From start to finish dealing with Alex at Vdubline was a real pleasure.Prior to pick up we received a video all about the van and how to operate it, which he covered again when we collected the immaculately clean van.Van drove superbly and was surprisingly comfy in spite of sleeping 3 adults.The equipment is maintained to the highest standards and we had no issues over the 3 nights we used the van.Return was just as smooth and efficient and we would definitely recommend Vdubline as excellent value for money.Thanks team."
