Hi, I'm Melanie
Joined on April 27, 2022
I am a mother of two children who refuse to sleep in the van together. We now travel with tent and van. Im currently too tired to put up a tent, hence the vans almost constant availability. Personally, Im looking forward to driving off alone and parking somewhere with a view, sipping (necking) a G&T and going through the puzzle pages of a newspaper. I do though have wonderful memories of the four of us vanning around France for three weeks and regularly driving down to Hillend Campsite (Gower, has a great beach) and Raquerty Farm in Hay, so can thoroughly recommend Vanessa Van Vanventurerer for that too. (The website removes my inverted commas for some reason, changing Im to Im (see!))

I had such a nice weekend in the van in the Lake District. Mel and Tim had great communication and a very thorough tour of the van before I set off. The van was well kitted out, including cooking utensils and good black-out window covers. The bed was comfortable and spacious. Mel and Tim were flexible with timings for pick up and drop off, and said they were always available if any issues. I'd love to use Vanessa again sometime!

We booked Vanessa for a weekend and have rebooked. Communications were excellent, as was the handover. The van had everything we needed for a great weekend. Definitely would recommend.

We had a fab trip and loved having a tiny home on wheels. Vanessa had everything we needed and Mel was super friendly and helpful. We really appreciated the ice and loan of a mister on a scorcher of a day. Highly recommended!

We loved the van with its wide comfy bed and pop up for the kids! It sheltered us from the Scottish gales of the Outer Hebrides and Mel was great, super friendly and responsive throughout!

We had our first van experience with Vanessa and we couldnt be happier! Although the weather was terrible, she kept us dry and cosy at night. She has all you need for your stay, well organised and with plenty of storage for our stuff too. Thank you to Vanessa, Mel and Tim! Cant wait to book again!

We had a great experience camping in Vanessa with our 2 year old and would highly recommend. The van is kitted out with just about everything you could need, even full ice trays, bin bags and washing up liquid are provided. The van was lovely and clean, Mel and Tim were really relaxed and helpful and handover was super easy. Only slight issue was that the fridge didn't stay very cold whilst camped but I expect this would have been fine if we had been hooked up.

We have had a great experience. My friend and I drove the camper from Bristol to Cornwall and had a wonderful time in England. The camper is equipped with everything you need. Cutlery, crockery, heat covers, table and camping chairs. The handover went great. Everything was explained to us in detail. Melanie and her husband are very, very nice and also the return was very uncomplicated. We would rent the camper van again at any time and recommend.
