I had the most fantastic time with Gerry and Lauren’s van. I hired it mostly as an experiment since I’m thinking of buying one. I wanted to see if I could “live” in one for a few days in the winter and “Lizzie” as their van is called, did not disappoint! Its lovely L-Shaped layout made you feel like you’re in a spacious little studio flat and was not just great to sleep in, but felt easy to “live” in too. A bench seat makes a cool sofa to sprawl out on with a glass of wine while you listen to music, read a magazine, or watch whatever the television companies are serving up on the little set on the wall in the corner. But the seating also converts into a four round a table so you can be sociable if you like… I was happy in my own company for this trip though! The LPG heating (along with high capacity leisure battery for the fans which I could leave on without fear of running out of power) kept me toasty all night. I was essentially off grid for 2 days, and the 12 volt system kept up with my demand without any charging for all that time. Also, the hot water system has a tank just big enough for a quick shower while your eggs are cooking on the stove for breakfast. The toilet was a real boon. I didn’t think I’d really need one, but having it there got more use than I’d planned. The cartridge system makes emptying and rinsing very efficient and hygienic to do. I had to empty the cartridge by walking it through my dad’s house and upstairs to his bathroom. But being a high end Thetford unit, I felt I could rely on it to stay watertight as I walked it through his house! The van is a Citroen, but apparently mechanically the same as a Fiat Ducato, the benchmark vehicle that thousands of motorhomes are based on. I found it a wonderfully pleasant drive… quiet engine, nice handling, smooth 6-speed gearbox. I love a manual box, especially on a bigger vehicle and it was fine climbing up and down the hills and valleys of west Cornwall. It was also pretty fuel efficient. I did 380 miles and it cost me about £75 to bring back up to a full tank. 2 days of heating cooking and hot water cost me £4.71 at the LPG pump so all in all it was quite a cost effective trip! The check in and out was fantastic. Gerry showed me all the controls and features of the van which are stunningly easy to use. As a fact-finding mission, it was a superb weekend. And to be honest if I could buy it based on my 3 day experience I definitely would!!

Liv

Absolutely perfect van for short or longer trips. Easy to drive, kitted out with everything you need, lovely and warm even in mid January, well thought out and plenty of space for gear. Loved it!!

Natalie

Kenny and Maxine were absolutely amazing so friendly, welcoming, and helpful from start to finish. The campervan was perfect for completing the NC500, even with the challenging weather. The van was incredibly comfortable and super cosy to the point we didn’t even need to use the heating despite the snow outside. Everything about the experience was spot on, and I honestly wouldn’t have changed a thing. I would 100% recommend booking with them!

Jasmine

This camper was awesome! So spacious, clean and had everything we needed. Those camping chairs with a foot rest were incredible. Tom was great with showing us the ins and outs of the motorhome and created really helpful videos as well. Highly recommend!

Océane & Quentin

We had an amazing week, went north of Scotland in winter with our 2 children, it was great ! The van is comfy, Robert very helpful, we highly recommend 😊

Michelle

Al’s campervan was great, perfect for our 2 night stay. As we were complete novices using a campervan, Al explained everything clearly and was happy to get calls if we were unsure. Would recommend him and use again in future.

Iain and Gill were amazing in all aspects of the hiring process. They were very helpful and communicated quickly. The Van itself is a really great van converted to a high spec and offered everything you could possibly need and more! The diesel heater was really good and kept us nice and cosy in the Scotish snow at -7degrees. We didnt think we’d use the TV but it was really handy after dark watching netflix with a glass of wine. We had a great time and would definitely hire it again. 😊

Patrick

We had a brilliant experience hiring Nevis! The van is really well equipped and comfortable to drive and stay in. We hired over a snowy weekend and the van was very warm and cosy. Matt and Madi were an absolute pleasure to deal with - excellent communication and very accommodating. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to explore this area.

My first time renting a van on this app was amazing. Camper was top notch, exactly what I needed to do quick tour of the north of Scotland and Skye region. Everything in the van is made to be conveniet and easy to use. It was January and winter tires got me throught a lot of snowy roads. Heater in the van was more advanced that what I used to and I slept like a baby. Roof insulation is made in a way that you are not breathing hot air when sleeping, nice little bonus ! Matt was also extremely helpful when I had couple questions during the trip and assisted me with things like getting back to town! Overall just great experience, thanks Matt!

Becky

What a brilliant experience from start to finish. Communication was excellent and the handover was very smooth. The van was very clean and had everything we needed. Highly recommend!
