Your questions on American RV hire, answered straight.

A small family business in the Cotswolds that hires out American fifth wheels and delivers them to events: motorsport, festivals, equestrian competitions, corporate hospitality and film locations across the UK and Europe. The unit arrives sited, connected and serviced. You just arrive.

The units we hire out include the Cedar Creek Silverback, the Jayco Northpoint, the Wildwood Heritage Glen and the Fifth Wheel Co Dreamseeker. The American pair each run slide-outs opening up to around 400 sq ft of interior, a king bed, a residential shower, a full kitchen, and air conditioning with central heating.

A fifth wheel is a large towed trailer that couples over the bed of a pickup truck rather than to a tow bar, which is where the name comes from. Against a touring caravan the difference is size and build: slide-outs open the interior to as much as 400 square feet, with residential ceiling heights and full-size appliances. It is closer to a small apartment than to a caravan, which is the point of hiring one.

A motorhome gives part of its length to an engine and a driving cab. A fifth wheel is towed, so every foot of it is accommodation. You never drive ours anyway: we bring each unit to the venue, set it up and take it away again, which leaves you the space without the cockpit.

Circuits including Silverstone, Brands Hatch, Goodwood, Donington Park, Le Mans, Spa-Francorchamps, Monza and the Nürburgring. Festivals including Glastonbury, Isle of Wight, Download, and Reading and Leeds. Equestrian events including Badminton, Burghley, Bramham and Royal Windsor. Plus corporate events, film locations and private sites across the UK and Europe.

Yes, always. Delivery, siting, levelling, connection where the venue provides services, a walkthrough of the systems, and collection afterwards. There is no version of the hire where you tow anything.

The American units are 41ft long and 8ft wide before the slide-outs open, so the pitch needs room for the slides, the steps and our tow vehicle to manoeuvre. You measure nothing yourself. We agree the exact pitch with the festival or organiser before we confirm the booking, and the compact Dreamseeker covers sites the big units cannot reach.

Usually 12 to 24 hours before your event opens. For race weekends that tends to mean Wednesday or Thursday. We agree the slot with the organiser and confirm it with you in advance.

We position and level the unit, open the slide-outs, connect electricity, water and waste where available, test everything, then walk you round the systems. It takes one to two hours, and it is done before you arrive.

We carry levelling kit and deal with most ground. A level unit matters for the appliances, the doors and the slides, so we do not cut corners on it.

Where the venue has them, yes: mains power, water and waste. Where it does not, the unit carries fresh and waste tanks with multi-day capacity, and we supply generator power.

For sites without hookups we bring a generator sized to run everything, air conditioning included, with fuel for your whole hire.

Properly. Full-size fridge freezer, oven, hob, microwave, double sink and worktop space, with cookware, crockery and utensils provided. Some guests self-cater all weekend; others use it for breakfast and coffee.

Both, dual-zone, so the bedroom and the living area can run at different temperatures. Warm in a cold British spring, cool in a July heatwave.

TVs with DVD and audio systems, and in most units a second screen in the master bedroom. Reception depends on the venue, so bring a streaming device if the programme matters to you.

Subject to signal at the venue, we can add a mobile hotspot to your hire, with stronger options for production and corporate work. Ask when you book.

Wardrobes in the bedrooms, under-bed storage, overhead lockers and exterior compartments. A week of clothing and kit for 8 goes in without the unit feeling full.

Yes. Beds are made before you arrive, with pillows, bedding and bath towels for everyone. Toiletries are the one thing you bring.

Regularly: the Le Mans 24 Hours, Spa-Francorchamps, Monza, Barcelona-Catalunya, Zandvoort and the Nürburgring. We handle transport, paddock coordination and the pitch itself.

Well. Badminton, Burghley, Bramham, Royal Windsor and Blenheim are regulars, and we understand early arrivals, stable proximity and the shape of a three-day event. Many equestrian families rebook every year.

Yes, at major UK and European festivals, with the unit sited and connected before the gates open. You get a private, lockable base with a real bed, a real shower and climate control, a walk from the music.

Your festival entry tickets are yours to buy, and they sit outside the hire. The pitch, and any live-in vehicle pass that goes with it, we arrange with the organiser as part of the booking. Every festival writes its own terms for live-in vehicles and those pitches go early, so name the festival when you enquire and we will confirm what yours requires before you commit to dates.

Circuits control where live-in vehicles can go, and at Silverstone that means the official RV camping areas. Whatever pass or pitch allocation the venue requires, we arrange it with the organiser as part of your booking, so it is settled before you travel.

Yes: client entertainment at sporting venues, brand activations and executive accommodation, with staffing and extra amenities added where the brief calls for them.

Yes. Crew accommodation, production offices, green rooms and basecamp facilities on location, including places with no hotel for miles.

Send the form or call with the event, your dates and your party size. We price it, you approve it, and a booking agreement and deposit invoice hold your dates.

Confirmation paperwork, venue-specific information, guidance on what to bring, and our support contacts. We confirm the delivery slot a few days before your event.

A deposit secures the booking and the balance falls due 30 days before your event. We take bank transfer and major credit cards, and we invoice companies against a purchase order. The exact terms are in your booking agreement.

Terms depend on timing and are set out in your booking agreement. We are as flexible as the calendar allows, and for high-value bookings we suggest event insurance.
