Welcome to Margo our Chausson Flash 656 7 Berth Motorhome, who we have decided to hire out for the 2021 season.

She is immaculate and will sleep seven, and each seat (7 in total) is fitted with a seat belt so you can all travel together in safety. We are happy to hire from 1 to 7 occupants, and the rental costs will remain the same.
Full Comprehensive insurance is included for one driver providing you are between 23 and 79 and no more than six points on your licence. If you are slightly younger/older or require an additional driver please contact us as the insurance company may be able to cover you for an additional cost.
We do allow Margo to go abroad, but you will have to complete and pay for the form VE103 to cover the insurance. Margo does have full european breakdown cover included.
There are two adult sized bunks to the rear with a ladder to access the top bunk, and a curtain for the bunks for privacy. There is a large double motorised drop down bed above the dining area again with a ladder for access. The additional double bed which is made up from the dining area seating is below the motorised bed and a smaller single bed which is made up from the two seater area (this is for a smaller adult or child as a little shorter than the double).
Bedding can be provided for all the beds at a small additional fee.
Margo is fitted with an air conditioning unit in the main living area. In preparation for a scorching hot 2021...
There is a full size bathroom with sink and toilet and a large shower which is ideal if you decide to go off grid and stay away from camp sites for a few days. There will be complimentary toilet rolls just to get you going.

NO FESTIVALS/STAG or HEN Parties.
We do allow well behaved dogs, but ask that all the seats are covered with throws which are included if you wish for them to sit on the seats. Please ensure you inform us on booking of the breed and how many dogs.
If you have never camped before and think you would need anything extra please do not hesitate to ask us we have been camping for many years going from tents to trailer tents to caravans with our children, grandchildren and dogs and have finally reached Margo. We have a large stash of camping gear if there was anything else you think you might need....
Parents & Grandparents - we hated being fleeced over the bank holidays and school half terms for holidays, hence we do not increase our prices for these periods other than the main summer period.
We fully understand that breakages and damage occur all we ask is that you are honest and report it to us upon return of the van (or before) so as to avoid any unnecessary drama.
Margo is ideally located on the A14 corridor for easy access to the M1, M6 and A1 for your adventures further a field.
We are BLUE LIGHT FRIENDLY and offer a 10% discount upon proof of service.
Unfortunately due to extensive damage in summer 2021 and people not taking care of Margo our pride and joy we have had no choice but to increase the deposit requested to £1000. Love and look after Margo and you get all your deposit back simples....
Due to our insurance company requests when hiring any of our Vans we will require a photo copy of your driving licence, and 2 forms of identification (these could be household bills, or passport in your name) we will also need to do a DVLA driving licence check when you arrive to collect your hire van.
We are happy for the copies of your driving licence and household bills to be emailed through to us before your hire if you wish to do this, or we can copy them when you arrive.
We will take the damage waiver deposit from yourself when you collect Margo which is £1000, this can be paid by cred/debit card or bank transfer and is returned to you when Margo is safely returned with no damage.
Currently Margo is not as perfect as we would like due to an inconsiderate hirer from last season and the difficulty getting parts, she is fully useable but has some exterior battle scars until repairs can be done, we do apologise for this but can do nothing about it.
Thank you for your understanding
