    We had a wonderful 10 day trip with our 3 children across the UK in this van. The van was clean and comfortable and James and Alison had thought of every little detail to accommodate our stay. They also remained easily contactable throughout. Highly recommend.

    An incredible van! We nick-named her Big Bertha and explored the coasts of Northern Ireland and ROI. Managed to get six adults in here (cosy but we are good friends) and it had everything we could need for an utterly incredible week away. James was extremely contentious in talking us through how to use everything and made sure we were fully confident before we set off. Before we arrived no question was too small over message and we stayed in contact throughout the trip for any little questions. Such a well maintained van, everything worked exactly as it should and made for a comfortable holiday all round.
