Overnight stays in campervans and motorhomes
Access rights do not include motor vehicles. If public or private land owners restrict or regulate parking on their land, camper vans must comply with this.
Formal guidance by Nature Scot also notes the following advice to camper van owners:
At all times, minimise your impact by:
- Following the Highway Code and the guidance in the Scottish Outdoor Access Code, including the specific advice on car parking. Respect the interests of others, care for the environment and take responsibility for your own actions.
- Planning ahead and booking into managed caravan/camp sites and other provision for campervans and motorhomes where possible.
