Before venturing out of Belfast in your campervan, there are a few things you simply must explore…

Belfast’s major addition in recent years is the brand new Belfast Titanic museum – an exhibition of breath taking scope, a marvel of design and a celebration of Belfast’s unique history. It is truly a must-see.

Belfast is fast becoming one of the most exciting cultural jewels of the UK with a wealth of things to see and do no matter your budget or tastes. If you are a culture seeker, Belfast will not disappoint – why not explore the narrow cobbled streets of the Cathedral quarter and its many hidden pubs and restaurants? You should also check out St Georges Market – a large weekend market held in an old beautifully ornate vintage bus station. Here you can stock up on oddities and international food before taking your campervan for hire in Ireland towards the North Coast.

Irelands spectacular North Coast is a rugged and scenic stretch of landscape which is one of the most talked about areas of Northern Ireland by visitors from all over the world and is best viewed from the comfort of a campervan or motorhome from Bunk Campers. With onboard heating, comfortable beds and cooking facilities, as well as an onboard toilet and shower with hot running water; you can simply camp up and admire the incredible view, or pull in overnight at one of the north coast’s award-winning campsites in your motorhome for rental in Ireland.

The north coast is packed with things to do in the summer months when its sea-side towns come alive with holiday-goers. The holiday town of Portrush has long been an entertainment mainstay on the North Coast with festivals and events happening all year round. Portrush is also the training ground for some of the biggest names in record-breaking big wave surfing, like Al Mennie, who was gifted a Bunk Campers Ranger campervan just before be broke a world-record for the highest wave ever surfed.

This years ‘Portrush regatta’ on the 19th of July is shaping up to be another great event. Highlights of the programme include a Sea Cruises Race from the Clyde, Scotland to Portrush and a day racing programme and regatta spectacle. All this plus street entertainment and a music festival both outdoors and throughout the town’s many pubs and clubs make it a very exciting year indeed.

Also on the north coast, the tall ships make a repeat visit on the 21st of August this year, which always turns out to be one of the most attended events on the north coast calendar and a fantastic day out for families.

This year also sees the grand opening of the Giants causeway visitors centre. Taking a campervan or motorhome for rental in Ireland to the north coast will allow you the freedom to explore this historic monument as well as the ‘carrick a rede’ ropebridge – an historic suspension bridge hovering over 150 feet above the rocky coastline. When you’ve proven to your friends and family that you’re brave enough to make the crossing, you can return to the safety of your campervan and make yourself a nerve-steadying cup of tea on your onboard cooking facilities.

In the north-west lies the historic walled city of Derry/Londonderry, the second biggest city in Northern Ireland and the UK’s city of culture for 2013. L’Derry is the only completely intact walled city in Ireland and one of the finest examples of a walled city in Europe. L’Derry is also one of the most vibrant and festival-packed cities in the UK during the summer months, from small independent events like the comics festival, to large international events like the Maiden City Jazz Festival, which draw in crowds from all over the world. This week sees the launch of the famous clipper festival from the quay in L’Derry, a newly renovated Parisian style section of the city.

L’Derry’s Maiden City Festival is a flagship celebration of diversity in Northern Ireland which takes place from the 4th to the 11th of August every year. The line-up promises a home for all those who wish to celebrate drama, music, song or dance – just for the love of it.

Regardless of where you go, there is always something to see and do in Northern Ireland during the summer, and with your transport and accommodation in one, you can take control of your holiday from day one. Plan your holiday and decide your own route. Forge your own path through jaw-dropping landscapes, soaring mountain ranges with centuries-old castles and some of the best cultural entertainment in Europe. Northern Ireland is the ideal touring ground to rent a campervan and get out on the open road where your holiday is what you make it. Campervan hire Ireland, from Bunk Campers.
