Collins Campers โ€” Galway Motorhome Hire

Kinvara, Galway โ€” self-contained 4 and 6-berth motorhomes

Collins Campers is an independent Kinvara, Galway operator focused on self-contained 4 and 6-berth motorhomes. For renters searching for Galway motorhome hire rather than a generic campervan listing, the appeal is route fit: you can collect on Galway Bay and be heading into the Burren, Connemara, or the Cliffs corridor without losing the first day to a Dublin pickup.

About Collins Campers

Collins Campers operates under collinscampers.ie and sits in a specific part of the Irish hire market: west-coast starts, mid-size families, and renters who want a self-contained motorhome with shower, toilet, kitchen, and fixed sleeping space rather than a lighter campervan setup that depends more heavily on campsite facilities.

Fleet overview

Self-contained motorhomes โ€” sized for 4-berth and 6-berth motorhomes. The fleet sits in the Motorhome category, which makes Collins Campers a natural choice for renters who specifically want that kind of vehicle rather than an "any campervan" booking. If you're sure about your vehicle type, an operator focused on that segment usually outperforms a generalist on fit-out and condition.

Depot & pickup

Kinvara, on the southern shore of Galway Bay โ€” a 30-minute drive from Galway City, an hour from Shannon Airport, and the perfect launching point for a Wild Atlantic Way trip taking in the Burren, the Cliffs of Moher, and Connemara within the first 48 hours.

Checks worth making before you reserve

Confirm the exact collection window in Kinvara, the security deposit or excess, whether bedding and kitchen kit are included, whether mileage is limited, and whether the 4-berth or 6-berth layout actually matches your group. West-coast pickup is the main advantage here, so make sure the practical terms support that route advantage before you pay.

Our verdict

Who Collins Campers is best for

The west-coast self-contained pick. Kinvara puts you on the Wild Atlantic Way and within 90 minutes of Connemara, the Burren and the Cliffs of Moher. Self-contained motorhomes with kitchen, shower and toilet mean you're not chained to campsites โ€” ideal for renters who want freedom-camping flexibility on quieter Irish backroads.

Downsides to know: No campervan / VW option โ€” motorhomes only. Pickup at Kinvara, not Galway City or Shannon, so plan a taxi or pre-arranged transfer. Smaller operator means narrower availability in school holidays.
