Information on Driving in the Schengen Area

boy stood next to 4 motorhomes


European Sun Beckons: Information on Driving in the Schengen Area

Now that autumn is here, you might be dreaming of escaping to the sunny shores of southern Spain or Portugal. Or perhaps you're picturing yourself exploring the charming villages of France or Italy. Whatever your European adventure looks like, a motorhome gives you the freedom to explore at your own pace. But with Brexit changing some of the travel rules, it's important to be in the know before you hit the road.

Before you set off on your autumn road trip, it's worth brushing up on the latest regulations for driving a motorhome in Europe. 

Navigating the New Rules: Essential Info for UK Motorhomers in Europe

  • Passport and Visa Requirements: Ensure your passport is valid for at least 6 months from your planned return date to the UK. Currently, UK citizens can travel to the Schengen Area without a visa for up to 90 days within a 180-day period. For the most up-to-date information, check the UK government's foreign travel advice for the specific countries you plan to visit: https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice.
  • Driving Regulations: You'll need your UK driving licence, motorhome insurance with European cover, and your vehicle registration document (V5C). While an International Driving Permit (IDP) is not currently required for most EU countries, it's a good idea to carry one, especially if you plan to venture further afield. You can get an IDP from the Post Office: https://www.postoffice.co.uk/international-driving-permit. Don't forget to display a UK sticker on your motorhome unless your number plate has the UK identifier.
  • The 90/180-Day Rule: The Schengen Area operates a "90/180-day rule," meaning you can stay for a maximum of 90 days within any 180-day period. This applies to all visits within the Schengen zone, whether for holidays, business, or other purposes. It's crucial to keep track of your travel dates to avoid overstaying. You can use the Schengen Area calculator on the European Commission website to help you: [invalid URL removed].
  • "Resetting" the Clock: Trips to Non-Schengen Countries:


If you're keen to spend more than 90 days exploring Europe in your motorhome, you'll need to "reset" the clock by visiting countries outside the Schengen Area. 

How Does The Schengen Area 90/180-day rule work?:

The 180-Day Rolling Window

It's important to understand that the 180-day period is a rolling window the looks back and counts any prior days you have spent in the Schengen area. This means it's not a fixed period that starts on the day you enter the Schengen Area. Instead, it's a continuous 180-day period that starts each day.

Calculating Your Stay

To avoid any issues, it's crucial to keep track of your travel dates and calculate your time spent within the Schengen Area in the last 180 days. You can use the Schengen Area calculator on the European Commission website or consult with a travel expert if you're unsure.

Remember Always check the latest travel advice and entry requirements for your chosen destinations before you travel.

Which Countries are in the Schengen Area?

The Schengen Area currently includes the following 27 countries:

  • EU Member States: Austria, Belgium, Croatia, Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, France, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Latvia, Lithuania, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, Slovakia, Slovenia, Spain, Sweden.  
  • Non-EU Member States: Iceland, Liechtenstein, Norway, Switzerland.  

You can travel freely between these countries without border checks, making it easy to explore multiple destinations on your motorhome adventure. However, remember that the 90/180-day rule applies to the total time spent within the Schengen Area, regardless of how many countries you visit.

Planning Your European Escape: Tips for a Smooth Journey

  • Motorhome Checklist: Before you set off, make sure you have all the essentials, including travel insurance, breakdown cover, a first aid kit, and any necessary adaptors or converters. Don't forget to pack for all weather conditions, as Europe can experience diverse climates.
  • Route Planning: Map out your route, considering ferry crossings, the Channel Tunnel, and toll roads. Research campsites or wild camping rules in advance, especially during peak season. Apps and websites like Park4Night and The Camping and Caravanning Club can be invaluable resources for finding overnight stops.
  • Resources: Stay updated on the latest travel advice and regulations by checking official government websites and travel advisories.

How Long Does Water Last in a Motorhome?

washroom in chausson 640


How Much Water Does a Motorhome Hold?

Let's take the Chausson 640 as an example. This motorhome boasts a 105-litre fresh water tank – enough for a whopping 405 cups of tea! But remember, the capacity varies across different motorhome models.

How Long Does Water Last in a Motorhome?

The real question isn't just how much you have, but how long it lasts. Well, that depends on your water usage habits. Here's a quick guide:

  • Light Users: If you're happy with quick "navy showers," washing dishes at campgrounds, and using water sparingly while cooking, your tank can last an impressive 5-7 days for two people!
  • Moderate Users: Showering every other day and being mindful of water use will usually get you 3-4 days on a full tank.
  • Heavy Users: If daily showers and frequent dishwashing are your style, be prepared to refill every 1-2 days.

How to make water last longer in a motorhome:

  • Shower Savvy: Turn off the water while soaping up.
  • Campground Perks: Take advantage of campground showers and dishwashing stations whenever possible.
  • Rainwater Collection: Consider collecting rainwater for cleaning or flushing.
  • Tank Monitoring: Keep a close eye on your water gauge to avoid running out unexpectedly.
  • Wild Camping: If you're venturing off-grid, carrying extra water containers is a smart move.

Keeping Your Motorhome Water Fresh:

  • Tank Freshness: Clean tanks keep water fresh for weeks, but it's best to refill every few days for optimal taste and to prevent bacteria growth.
  • Bottled Water: Unopened bottles can last for about two years, but once opened, they should be refrigerated and used within a few days.

Finding Water when Wild Camping:

  • Petrol Stations: Most petrol stations have a water line you can use to fill up.
  • Churches: Many churches have a water tap in their graveyard or near the entrance.
  • Natural Sources: Rivers, streams, and springs can be a source of water, but always treat it before drinking or cooking.
  • Public Amenities: Look for taps in parks or public restrooms.
  • Friendly Faces: In rural areas, don't hesitate to ask locals for help finding a water source.

Remember, being mindful of your water usage and knowing where to refill ensures that your motorhome adventures remain worry-free, even in the wildest of locations.

How to Sell A Motorhome Privately

How to Sell Your Motorhome Privately: A Guide with Cautions

Selling your motorhome privately can be a rewarding experience, allowing you to connect directly with potential buyers and secure a fair price. However, it's essential to navigate this process with caution to avoid common pitfalls and scams.

Here are some tips to help you sell your motorhome privately:

  1. Prepare Your Motorhome: Ensure your motorhome is in top condition. Clean both the interior and exterior thoroughly, address any mechanical issues, and conduct a pre-sale inspection.
  2. Set a Realistic Price: Research similar motorhomes in your area to determine a fair market value. Consider factors like mileage, condition, features, and current market trends.
  3. Create a Comprehensive Listing: Include detailed information about your motorhome, such as its year, make, model, mileage, features, service history, and any recent upgrades. High-quality photos are essential to attract potential buyers.
  4. Choose the Right Platform: Utilize popular online marketplaces, social media groups, and classified ads to reach a wider audience.
  5. Be Prepared for Inquiries: Respond promptly to inquiries and be ready to answer questions about your motorhome.
  6. Schedule Viewings: Arrange viewings in a safe and convenient location. Be prepared to answer questions and negotiate the price.

While selling privately can offer rewards, it's important to be aware of the potential drawbacks:

  • Time-Consuming: The process can be time-consuming, involving numerous inquiries, viewings, and negotiations.
  • Risk of Scams: Be cautious of scams, such as fraudulent buyers or offers that seem too good to be true.
  • Negotiation Challenges: Negotiating a fair price can be challenging, especially if you're unfamiliar with the process.
  • Paperwork and Legal Considerations: Ensure all paperwork is in order, including the transfer of ownership and any warranties.

If your motorhome is under 10 years old, has low mileage, and is in excellent condition, consider selling it to a reputable dealership like TC Motorhomes. Our expert team can provide a quick and hassle-free valuation. Simply fill out our motorhome valuation form, and we'll contact you with a competitive offer. 

By selling to us, you can avoid the potential risks and complexities of private sales while securing a fair price for your motorhome.
