I can’t thank Amanda and Mike enough for making our first motorhome experience so positive. From the outset, communication was excellent with guides and videos shared before we collected Valerie, and it was easy to contact them when we were away and needed support in using the amenities. Just before our trip, I had a nightmare with a hire car situation, but Mike was so helpful in sorting things out for us. We travelled to the Isle of Skye which was a bit ambitious for our first trip, but Valerie had everything we needed. Our dog had the best time travelling around, and we appreciated being able to have him in the van with us. We would definitely recommend Valerie to anyone who is looking to experience van life for a week or two! Thank you both xx October 2024

Valerie was a very comfortable, well stocked van. There were a few issues with the van. We were told that it was full of water and it was almost empty. We then had to purchase a special container and had to manually fill her. As we were off grid there was no means of emptying waste water when it was full. Though we eventually found a way of doing this manually. Finally, there was a problem with the side door as the catch and lock failed completely. Overall though it was extremely comfortable and clean. If the problems were rectified we would definitely hire again August 2024
Response from Amanda I’m sorry to hear that you experienced some issues with the motorhome. We usually ask whether people would like the water tank filled in advance as it can increase fuel consumption but apologies if this didn’t happen. As notified upon your return there was no issue with the door except that you were attempting to close it having already turned the lock which prevented it from shutting. As with all motorhomes the onboard tanks do require visits to service points to fill and empty as required. I’m glad that this didn’t spoil your break!

Amanda and Mike were helpful throughout the whole process, right from enquiries and booking. Clear instructions and information were given. A super van for our first foray into the world of motorhomes. We would throughly recommend them as owners… and also Valerie of course. August 2024

We hired Valerie for a week and absolutely loved it! Amanda and Mike were extremely helpful, the van had everything we needed, they gave us loads of advice and tips too. We were relatively new to using a camper but the whole experience and trip was fantastic, we will definitely do this again. August 2024

We had never been in a moterhome before so didn't really know what to expect. We travelled to Cornwall in Valerie and loved it, very convenient to use and park. Vidios and instructions were really useful. Would recommend doing this once in a lifetime, but need a holiday to get over the walking. Thank you both July 2024

Excellent service, would highly recommend hiring Amanda’s motorhome. Handover and all communication from start to finish was excellent. Germany and back with no problems at all. June 2024

We had a great time with Valarie. This was our first time in a Motor home so it was a new adventure for us. We needn’t have worried about anything though, as Amanda & Mike put us at ease with good communication and quick replies to any queries. After we got used to the noise and rattles in the motor home , we found driving it a pleasure and much easier than anticipated. Valarie was just the right size for the two of use and everything worked perfectly. Thank you Amanda & Mike for the lovely experience. We would go again! May 2024

We had a great few days in this camper - from start to finish was this was a lovely experience. Amanda was really quick in replying to our initial enquiry and assisting our booking thereafter, always helpful and communicative. Pick up arrangements very easy and the offer to be flexible with pick up and drop off times was really appreciated. The camper itself - perfect! Lovely space, facilities and driving experience. Would highly recommend! Thank you! Zoe and Andy April 2024

Dealing with Mike & Amanda was a breeze, they were really friendly & helpful. We had an absolutely fantastic trip in Valerie touring round Scotland. No problems at all. Valerie gave us the opportunity to wake up in some amazing locations , thoroughly recommend & can’t wait to use her again. November 2023

Our first motor home holiday. We thoroughly enjoyed it. Great contact and information from Amanda. Good instructions on what to do and how to use the motorhome on collection. Responded quickly to a query we had. Everything we needed was supplied. We used 3 sites in 7 days to test moving around and all worked out perfectly. Good to have space inside for couple and dog. Cosy evenings inside too. We really enjoyed the experience September 2023

We hired Valerie for 4 nights as an introduction to motorhoming. What a great experience. Certainly given us food for thought. She had everything we needed and was easier to drive and manoeuvre than expected. We did need to make sure crockery/cutlery etc was padded down to help with rattles - but that seems fairly standard. Communication with booking was excellent and we were given a very thorough explanation of how everything worked prior to setting off. Thank you very much. September 2023

Really enjoyed our break , communication was really good leading up to the trip and we were helped with everything we needed to get the vehicle into France , it was great having the motorhome and it was everything we hoped , made the trip a lot more enjoyable than standard camping. Thanks June 2023

Travelled the wild Atlantic way in Valerie. Booking etc very easy- the van had everything we needed for our time away and we enjoyed being on the road x A great trip and we are inspired to do it again- Thanks to Amanda for the opportunity May 2023

We really enjoyed our 7 nights in Valerie. Our first experience of a motorhome was great! Amanda and Mike gave us all the info we needed to be confident to set off and enjoy our adventure. Very comfortable and cosy with ample space for the two of us to live in for the week, and for occasional day trips out with 2 additional adult family members on board. A fabulous holiday!

A fantastic first stay in a motor home thank you so much to Amanda & Mike for their help and ease in booking & learning all about ‘Valerie’s’ features so that we could go away on our mini trip with peace of mind 😊 August 2022

Fantastic motor home! It was bright, modern and easy to drive. Communication throughout the booking process was quick with all questions answered thoroughly. The welcome pack had clear instructions on how to use different features such as electricity and gas. We would definitely hire from Amanda again. August 2022

It was my 1st experience of using a motorhome and Valerie was a great. She had all the facilities as advertised and drove well. I found the bed a little small and the shower did not get warm, but I believe this was because I took it to a festival with no electrical hook-up. The owners were fantastic to deal with. I would definitely recommend. July 2022
Response from Amanda Thanks Ian, glad you enjoyed the motorhome experience 😊

Myself and a friend hired Valerie for 9 nights in early July. Had a great time in the motorhome, very comfortable, a few niggles which we managed to sort out but didn't detract from the holiday. Communication excellent would recommend Many thanks July 2022
Response from Amanda Thanks Lynne, glad you enjoyed your holiday, your feedback was very useful in helping us to iron out any niggles 😊

This was our first experience of a Motorhome holiday & we really enjoyed it. Amanda couldn’t have been more helpful & I would be happy to hire from her again! The Swift Escape was very easy to drive & we didn’t have any issues with parking! June 2022
Response from Amanda Thanks Steven, we look forward to seeing you again in the future 😊

Motorhome (Valerie) was fab, and very well appointed, and we wished for nothing apart from a few more days with her! The handover was thorough and appropriate, and the people were very friendly. Thank you! May 2022
Response from Amanda Thanks Richard, glad you enjoyed your trip - we would be happy to help you out again if you would like another trip 😊

We hired Valerie a “ much loved” motor home for our 2 week trip around Scottish Highlands. However Valerie did come with a list of faults! These being broken water filler cap thus spilling out the fresh water whilst driving, leaking shower tap in the toilet enough so we had to turn off the water pump after using the taps, and also a starting issue with the engine. It was pot luck if she would start first time. This rarely happened….. a breakdown wait to happen? There was also a wheel trim missing and the motorhome had been not been cleaned particularly well. There was medication on paperwork relating to the previous hirer left in the van. Clearly Valerie didn’t appear as loved at it stated in her advert. This did disappoint us somewhat but it never stopped us enjoying our holiday. May 2022
Response from Amanda Hi Alan, it’s disappointing to hear that you had these issues and it would have been helpful to discuss them with you. Unfortunately sometimes small issues occur and we are usually able to fix them quickly. I’m sorry if on this occasion we didn’t fulfil your expectations, we pride ourselves on giving people a lovely holiday experience as hopefully all our other reviews show. Amanda 😊

We thoroughly enjoyed our experience with Valerie. It was our first time in a motorhome with our 2 daughters. We all had fun and felt very comfortable and warm at night. Amanda gave us a tour of the motorhome before departing. We felt ready for our trip. Valerie is easy to use and modern inside. We also had great communication with Amanda. We totally recommend using Valerie. April 2022
Response from Amanda Hi Caroline, glad you had such a great holiday. Thank you for taking such good care of of our motorhome. We would be happy to help you out again in the future - Amanda 😊

We had a wonderful motohome experience. 'Valerie' has everything we needed. Amanda and family were lovely, giving us all the info and help we required. Want to say a big "thank you" to Amanda's parents. They were so kind and supportive throughout the whole journey. We, especially my son, loved the trip so much and we would definitely consider booking again in the future. April 2022
Response from Amanda Thank you Manting - love the pictures! You are most welcome to hire from us again 😊

We had a great time with Valerie during the course of our trip around Yorkshire and the Lake District. Everything you need is on board and she's easy to handle.

We had the best week in 'Valerie'. She is very well equipped and very clean. Amanda and her family are professional and friendly. The handover was seemless and everything explained to us which, as we'd never stayed in a motorhome, was essential. I would definitely recommend Goboony as a facility to book through. November 2021

Great experience from start to finish. The motor home was everything we wanted & easy to drive/ figure out. Amanda was so helpful and on the end of the phone if we had any queries. We had a great first motor home experience. Would highly recommend & definitely want to do it again. November 2021

We had a lovely few days away in Valerie, even in October. Very comfortable and well laid out, with lots of nice little touches and well organised by Amanda and Mike. A few minor niggles like the waste water indicator playing up (occasionally showing full after it was emptied) but overall very good. Maggie the Border Collie wasn't a big fan but got more used to it after a while. Would definitely book again! October 2021

First holiday in a motorhome - we have the bug! Amanda and her family were extremely thorough in the handover and made us feel very comfortable- reassuring us that no question was just daft and they would be on end of phone up ask.

Amanda & family were incredibly helpful from start to finish of hiring out our first Motorhome - the paperwork was sorted quickly, we were sent videos beforehand of how to use the basics such as the internal panel, the waste cassette etc, they were more than accommodating with the times of handover and return. The Motorhome itself was in great condition and a pleasure to spend a long weekend in. Thank you & we hope to hire from you again! Ben & Em May 2021
Response from Amanda Thanks Benjamin, we hope to see you again soon! 😊
