Motorhome Hire Inverness FAQs
How many days do you need to drive the NC500?
Most travellers allow 7 days to drive the North Coast 500 comfortably.
While the full loop is around 516 miles (830 km), the route passes through some of the most scenic parts of the Scottish Highlands, so the journey is best enjoyed slowly with time to stop at beaches, viewpoints, villages and campsites.
Shorter trips of 5 days are possible but will involve longer driving days and fewer stops. Many motorhome travellers prefer a full week to explore the route properly.
Most NC500 journeys begin and end in Inverness, which sits directly on the route and is the traditional starting point for the North Coast 500 motorhome route.
What are the best stop-off locations on the NC500?
The North Coast 500 passes through some of the most dramatic landscapes in the UK, with many popular stop-off points along the route.
Some of the most frequently recommended places to stop include:
- Dornoch – a historic coastal town with wide sandy beaches
- John O’Groats – the famous northern tip of mainland Britain
- Durness – home to Sango Sands and some of the Highlands’ most spectacular beaches
- Ullapool – a lively harbour town and a common overnight stop for travellers
- Assynt – known for its striking mountains such as Suilven and Stac Pollaidh
- Applecross – reached via the dramatic Bealach na Bà mountain pass
- Torridon – one of the most scenic regions of the west Highlands
Many motorhome travellers begin their trip in Inverness and complete the circular journey over several days, combining the North Coast 500 motorhome route with other Highland destinations such as the campervan hire Isle of Skye or the wider motorhome hire Scottish Highlands.
Should I drive the NC500 clockwise or anti-clockwise?
Most travellers drive the North Coast 500 anti-clockwise, starting in Inverness and heading north towards John O’Groats before continuing along the dramatic west coast of the Highlands.
Driving anti-clockwise places you on the inside lane of many of the coastal roads, which some motorhome drivers find more comfortable on narrower sections. It also means the most spectacular scenery along Scotland’s west coast — including Assynt, Applecross and Torridon — comes later in the journey when travellers have settled into the route.
Clockwise travel is still perfectly possible and many visitors choose this direction depending on campsite availability or travel plans.
Most motorhome travellers begin and end their journey in Inverness, which sits directly on the route and acts as the traditional starting point for the North Coast 500 motorhome route.
Can I travel the NC500 in a motorhome?
Yes. The North Coast 500 is widely travelled by motorhomes every year and is one of the UK’s most popular road trips for larger touring vehicles.
The route includes a mix of A-roads and narrower Highland roads, so drivers should expect sections with passing places and slower scenic driving. Vehicles up to around 7–7.5 metres are commonly used on the route and most motorhome travellers complete the full loop without difficulty by driving carefully and allowing extra time between stops.
Many travellers begin their journey in Inverness, which sits directly on the route and acts as the traditional starting point for the North Coast 500 motorhome route.
Motorhome travel is particularly well suited to the NC500 because it allows you to stay close to the coastline, stop at viewpoints and overnight at campsites throughout the Highlands while exploring the route at your own pace.
Is wild camping allowed on the NC500?
Wild camping in Scotland is generally permitted under the Scottish Outdoor Access Code, however motorhomes must park responsibly and avoid blocking roads, passing places or access tracks.
