    Its OK as long as you don't have more than 3 points for minor convictions (speeding) and no major convictions (drink driving etc) on your license. No major accidents (involving claims above £5,000) in the last 3 years. Failing to declare your points may result in a delay or cancelation of your hire.
  • How old are the Campervans?
    Our Campervans are typically under 5 years old but may vary, they are all owned outright by ourselves and we take great pride in presenting them in perfect condition. You will be given ample opportunity to inspect them prior to your departure to make sure you're happy. All we ask is that you return them in the same condition they went out.
  • Can I come and have a look at them before I decide?
    Of course you can, You should call to arrange a visit and to make certain the ones you want to see at are onsite.
  • Are they manual or automatic gearboxes?
    Our campervans have manual gear boxes
  • Can I take it outside the UK?
    At the moment our campervans are not to be taken off the UK Mainland.
  • Do you have pet-friendly campervans?
    Yes we allow 1 dog per campervan
  • Do we have to replace the Camping gas bottle we’ve used?
    You will need to purchase Camping gas on collection of the Campervan if you wish to cook in the camper whilst out on hire.
  • Does the campervan come with bedding?
    Bedding is not provided, you must bring your own bedding, towels and linen. only a mattress protector is provided.
  • Can I fit child seats, do they have Isofix?"
    None of the Campervans have Isofix fastenings (the clips that many child seats bolt into) but they do have proper seat belts in the back so you need to ensure that your child seat can be fixed using just a seat belt.
  • Is there a minimum number of nights for a booking?
    The minimum hire period is 3 nights, you can take it for less but you will pay the equivalent of 3 nights hire. Hire periods are Friday > Monday or Monday > Friday or weekly hire.
  • Is there a limit on mileage?
    No, you have unlimited milage.
  • Is breakdown cover included?
    Yes all our campervans are covered for breakdown and recovery across the UK.
  • How much notice do you need to give?
    During the kids summer holidays we get very booked up with hires typically running Friday to Friday each week. During July and August you need to book in advance. Out of season hires can be booked last minute depending on availability but we need at least 48 hours advance notice.
  • What time and days can I collect my campervan?
    Depending on availability, we offer Monday and Friday collections and returns. Collection is after 2pm on the first day, on occasions it may be possible to collect earlier but don’t rely on this. It is important that you are punctual, we have a large number of turnarounds during the busy season, and if you’re late you may miss your slot and have to wait till much later.
  • When do I need to return it by?
    Unless agreed in advance, all Campervans must be returned by 10am on the final day of hire. This is particularly important in the high season when we have very tight turnaround times. You wouldn't want to be delayed leaving if the hirer before you brought theirs back late, so please plan to be back before 10am. More info in our terms and conditions
  • Can I leave my car with you?
    No, we cannot have cars left on site however there is road side parking.
  • What do I need to bring with me on the day?
    Drivers will need to come holding their license, National Insurance number plus another two forms of ID with your name and address on it (utility bill, official letter etc) and a credit or debit card (in their name) to pay the security deposit. Security deposits are taken on the day of hire, everything else is paid in advance.
  • How do security deposits work and when do I get the money back?
    Standard security deposit on a UK license (staying within the UK) is £1,000. This increases to £1,500 if you're on a foreign license or leaving the UK. This is typically taken via a debit/credit card transaction or bank transfer. The money will leave your account and will be ring fenced.. Provided the motorhome is returned in the same state it was when it left, it is full of fuel, the toilet is empty and clean, none of the utensils are missing and it is generally clean and tidy you will receive your full deposit back. Unless a deduction needs to be made, we aim to get the deposits returned within 5/7 working days.
  • How do you deal with damages or losses?
    We want you to have a great time but you need to be fully aware that you are responsible for the motorhome and its contents. Accidents do happen and unfortunately things do get broken. Due to their lightweight design, they are pretty flimsy, remember they are made out of fibreglass not steel so when you hit something you will come off worse! Likewise the internal fittings are lightweight so also delicate, please go easy and never try and force anything. We are completely transparent when it comes to charging for damage repair, we try to make it as painless as possible but there will be some extra costs. We charge you for the cost of the replacement part and the admin time it takes to source it, send it and fit it.
  • What are the most common things that get broken?
    • Window blinds and window stays • Door locks (they are made of out of plastic inside so be gentle) • Roof lights and side windows, do a quick check they're shut tight before driving anywhere, they will blow open and off! • Wing mirrors getting clipped by oncoming vehicles (particularly vans). • Waste taps and pipes underneath (they’re very low so often get knocked off on bumpy tracks) • Bed slats getting snapped if they're stood or knelt on or jumped up and down on!
  • Do you offer any kind of Collisin Damage Waiver to protect my security deposit?
    Yes we can put you in touch with a company that can protect this for you. Depending on your age and destination you will typically pay about £70 to cover the £1,000. In the event of a claim we will deduct money from your card and then present you with an itemised repair bill for you to present to your insurer for a refund. You should read your insurance cover carefullly as you may find they do not cover certain things (like roof damage).
  • What happens if I have paid by initial booking fee in advance but then have to cancel before I have paid the balance ?
    All cancellations must be in writing. When a renter makes a reservation with a departure date more than 14 days away, a Reservation Deposit is charged when an Owner accepts the reservation. This charge is 50% of the full cost of the trip. Example: More than 14 days A £400 trip full cost = a £200 Reservation Deposit When a Renter makes a reservation with a departure date less than 14 days away, the trip’s full cost is due at booking. Example: Less than 14 days A £400 trip full cost = a £400 due at booking Once a Reservation Request has been accepted, a full refund (including service fee) is available for 24 hours – if the departure date is still more than 14 days away. Otherwise, the service fee is non-refundable. At 14 days from departure, the balance of the trip cost is due. If a Reservation is cancelled more than 14 days prior to the departure date: · Any insurance paid is refunded · Renter is responsible for 50% of the booking total · Renter is responsible for the service fee If a Reservation is cancelled less than 14 days prior to the departure date: · Any insurance paid is refunded · Renter is responsible for 100% of the booking total · Renter is responsible for the service fee ​ No shows and cancellations less than 2 weeks prior to commencement of hire will be charged the full hire cost. ​ Should the hirer not meet the insurance criteria ( due to undeclared points or address discrepancies etc) then normal cancelation term and conditions apply. ​ Please ensure you have the correct holiday insurance to protect yourself from any of the above situations.
  • What happens if I've paid in full but then have to cancel ?
    We will offer you the chance to postpone the booking, this is subject to availability. Please see our terms and conditions for our cancellation policy. Holiday insurance cover is advised to safegaurd against this possibility.
  • I've never been in a campervan before how does it work?
    Many of our customers are first timers, don't panic. Everyone gets a thorough handover and instructed on how everything works before their hire starts: hot water, heating, control panels, gas and electric, bed making. It's a lot to take on so we provide you with easy to follow guides (with pictures!). By the second night you'll be doing it like a pro. If you get stuck the best thing to do is ask someone in a campervan on your campsite, they'll be only too happy to help. If you're really stuck you can always call us during office hours.
  • Where can I stay in my campervan?
    Provided you are on private property and you have the permission of the landowner to park there, you can park pretty much anywhere and sleep. Don't park on the side of the road, you will likely get moved on in the middle of the night. Your best bet is to plan a route and book into somewhere official. There are hundreds of campsites and caravan parks around the UK. These range from farmers fields to purpose built resorts but do check if they can accomodate motorhomes of more than 6 meters long. In the summer months book well in advance, particularly around July and August time. We've got some routes around Wales wtih campsites that all take motorhomes.
  • What is your policy regarding smoking in a motorhome?
    We operate a no smoking policy in the campervans for obvious reasons, please smoke outside and avoid ashtrays inside the campervans. There is a fine for smoking in the campervans, more info in our terms and conditions.
  • Does the fridge work even when you're not plugged into an electrical supply?
    The motorhome is completely self-sufficient in terms of hot water, fridge freezer and heating this can all be run off the gas. The internal lights run from the on-board leisure battery. This can be recharged whilst driving or by plugging into a 240v connection at a camp site. Please note, If you're not hooked up to the mains, the microwave and plug sockets in the van WILL NOT WORK. If you are going to be wild camping for seveeral days without the ability to hook up, you might consider hiring one of our petrol gennys' these will rechage the leisure battery.
