Hi, I'm Colin & Nadine

September 16, 2025

Colin and Nadine are an absolute dream, as is the charming Mervyn. The van is great and had everything that we needed for our break, including kitchen accessories (and two cafetieres!). The van controls are simple enough, and the heating was very welcome. Mervyn is easy to drive, and was comfortable both on motorways and smaller roads - being a Mercedes the gearing is good and there is enough power to not have to crawl up hills at 20mph. As there were only 2 of us, we didn't try the fold out bed, but the fixed bed was perfect for us. There is lots of storage space and the van was comfortable in torrential rain and severe winds. We'll definitely book again when the time calls. Thank you again, both. Xxx

Merv the Merc is as exactly as described and more. Colin and Nadine were perfect hosts, added some extra treats (delicious cake!) which were appreciated. Handover simple, location ideal and we had a wonderful week in Cornwall. Would thoroughly recommend. The van has everything you need and more.

First class experience with very friendly and very professional van owners. The van was in excellent condition, very clean, very well equipped. We spent a fantastic break in it and would definitely hire it again. Thoroughly recommended!!!

Merv the Merc is a great van with plenty of room and all the facilities you could wish for. Because the owners use it for their own holidays they know all the little things you might need, and they go the extra mile with nice touches too. Colin and Nadine went out of their way to make the trip the best it could be. Would recommend without hesitation

Our 10-day holiday in Merv was epic! Merv is very spacious and well proportioned with everything you'd need for a home away from home, including, bedding, towels, cooking utensils, outdoor table and chairs, fire pit, games and DVDs ... We loved the dry room at the back where we stored our wetsuits and other items. Communication with Nadine and Colin was perfect. They provided directions for the pick up, and recommendations on where to visit, allowed us to park our car whilst we were in Merv, and a lovely cream tea gift box (jam first!!) Merv is well designed with a great spec. While other campers battled with high wind and rain, we were comfortably cocooned in Merv! We can't wait to plan our next trip!!
