## Description

Big Bertha is a Sea Newlife, there are only a few of them around. She is big and has all the mod cons. She has 4 permanent beds - a double over the cab and 2 bunks at the back.
In addition.
She has a single bed which we tend to use as a sofa, but it is also 2 sets and a table so thats 5 
And then she has seats and a table for 4 which becomes a double bed.
So she sleeps 5 comfortably and 7 if you want to be a bit squashed.

## Reviews

### Ivan - 5.0/5
*October 2025*

We travelled with 2 of my friends through the highlands with the Big Bertha for 12 days and it was amazing. The motorhome is perfect (fully furnished and functional) and Andrew is really nice and accommodating.

### Ema - 4.0/5
*June 2024*

We spend 2 weeks traveling around Scotland  and it was absolutely magical. We enjoyed Andy&#39;s motorhome and it was a great travel buddy for our family of 3. We loved all the space it provided us for maximum comfort and an additional sofa/bed was such a nice addition after long walks and sightseeings. 
It is a bit unreliable at times as it doesn&#39;t alway start on the first try but we didn&#39;t mind it as much as we knew we were getting an older vehicle. With that said there were a few &quot;surprises&quot; r...

### Anna Maria - 4.0/5
*August 2023*

We have spent 5 fantastic nights at the Big Bertha. This motorhome has a good engine and few kilometers. Perhaps it would need a little maintenance in a closet or door lock but in general it is well preserved for its age. The advertiser provided us with clear instructions for use and even supported them with a video that helped us handle it. Recommended experience!

### Thalassa - 5.0/5
*August 2023*

Very good contact with Andrew, the Camoing Car was very comfortable and there was all the necessary equipment! We had a nice time. Thank you so much :)

### Stefano - 5.0/5
*July 2023*

We had a great time with "Big Bertha". Not the newest campervan, but clean and functioning. It had all we needed. Andrew had made some very helpful videos that we could use when having questions about the vehicle. 
Highly recommended 

### Mélanie - 5.0/5
*May 2023*

Thanks to Andrew for his kindness. Campsite suitable for our 10-day stay. We highly recommend it.

### Andreas - 5.0/5
*June 2022*

Andy was a great host! He took his time to show us around the van and was very trustworthy. He was flexible in pick-up and drop-off time because there weren't any other renters. The van isn't brand new but everything still works great!
