LITTLE VIP 4 – LUXURY 4 BERTH

Got let down 48 hrs before trip and Russell steps in and saved the day easy handover will hire again June 2025

Our experience with Goboony and Russell was fantastic. The van was a great size for two people, pick up was easy (Russell walked us through everything on site), and kindly offered to drive us back to the station when we returned the van. He was full of handy tips / recommendations, including a few stellar roads, and would thoroughly recommend him. One small call out would be that there isn't a huge amount of cooking equipment on board, so meals are limited to a pot and a pan on a small hob - not a problem, just a case of expectation management! Hopefully we'll be back soon! May 2025

First I want to state for others reading this review that I give very honest reviews and even though we booked this campervan for our trip this is not the one we received and that my review is on. However, we did not know this until pick up where it was explained to us that this was due to the fact that the couple before us blew out the engine and it was unusable. Russell was extremely nice and went way out of his way to ensure we had a different but similar one for our trip so that our plans were not ruined, which was greatly appreciated! We would have been devastated to arrive in Scotland have to scramble to set up other arrangements. He picked us up at the train station and dropped us off there at the end of the trip which was greatly appreciated as well. There is a fee for it, which was ok. The van we got he stated was newer than the one we originally booked. The van wasn’t really cleaned when we took it over as well as we didn’t get a full propane tank as it was our understanding that it was a VERY quick turnover from the people before in order for us to have the van for our trip on time. The only issue we really had was that it was discovered the first evening that the water pump did not work so we unfortunately did not have any water for our 8 day trip. My husband is an engineer and tried to troubleshoot with Russell via text to see if it was something simple or error user but the water was leaking out of the frame and my husband was 100% convinced that the line was ruptured. Russell said the previous ppl said the water worked fine for them and seemed to think it was a valve that opens when the temp drops below freezing even though attempts to shut the valve proved unsuccessful. Hence we used bottled water the whole of the trip. It was a big bummer as we planned this trip around having water access and shower use. And we did end up getting sick a couple days in and we really struggled to find an open campground and showers a couple times when we really needed them and just felt awful. So that was a big bummer. We know that we wouldn’t have been able to take but quick showers but when you don’t feel well, it really makes all the difference. We did notice some other differences between the vans that we would have liked to of still had. There was no reversing camera with the one we got, only a 2 burner stovetop (could only cook one thing at a time) no microwave or oven. We didn’t also notice that the sliding door - the window shade really rattles the entire time driving so just a heads up. It won’t be a quiet ride lol. Overall we had a wonderful time. We are so thankful that Russell made sure our trip was able to happen. We had so many great adventures in it and saw so much. The van was great, we just planned on some things that we had to go without and adjust. I will also add when parking anywhere but especially Portree - if the van takes up 2 spaces (bays) pay for 2 parking passes… we got a ticket bc we only paid for 1 spot though we were technically taking up 2 😒 it was a hefty 50£. And also … don’t stick Russell with the parking ticket. Apparently most people do that. We paid ours before we left the parking lot. Bc if it’s not paid in the first 14 days it doubles to 100£. Don’t be that guy. April 2025

Goede camper en fijn contact met Russell! April 2025

Brilliant holiday and experience using Russell's motorhome. Will definitely be using Russell again in the future. 10/10 April 2025

Had a great week driving around the NC500 with my son in one of Russell's Motor Homes. We hired one of the smaller vans which was perfect and comfortable for the two of us and compactly handle-able. The vehicle was clean and we picked it up in Glasgow which was a perfect starting point. Russell met us, gave us a tour around the van and gave us some excellent tips for highlights to check out on our route. Russell was a pleasant and helpful guy and responded quickly to requests we had on the journey. Highly recommended. April 2025

5 dagen met deze camper op pad geweest, we hebben een prima tijd gehad. 3 nachten off-grid wat prima te doen was! Accu houd dat prima vol. Russell was ook enorm fijn mee communiceren! Ook het ophalen en wegbrengen was prima geregeld! October 2024

Handover was good, easy to find etc Great looking van, nice to ride in, lovely comfy bed. We travelled to the Outer Hebrides. We had many problems with the van and was quite difficult for Russell to help too much due to the location, but communication was very good. We unfortunately had the majority of our vacation with heat, hot water, water, sometimes light. Some of the smaller stops were showerless or couldn’t hook us up, so it was a pretty bleak cold/wet break! Russell offered some compensation for our continual problems, but unfortunately it went back to Goboony to mediate as things broke down. Goboony sided with us and requested Russel pay a set sum of money. I am now having to go through the small claims court to retrieve this as it is impossible to reach Russell strangely. I’d advise to choose another company for your vacation. I’m sure Russell will now decide to communicate after 2 months of silence, watch this space. . September 2024

We had a fantastic trip, Russell was very friendly. It was our first motorhome experience so I was asking a lot of questions probably stupid ones but he set our mind at ease explained everything, nothing was to much trouble and we had a great time. Would love to do it again and will be going to Russell when we do. September 2024

Dead easy and quick handover, with lots of tips and advice. The motorhome itself was fab; a couple of tiny, non-consequential signs of wear and tear inside, but it was really comfy, everything worked perfectly. Really comfy and easy drive. Warm at night. Russell was brilliant as well, super lovely really helpful, and made the whole thing super easy as well. Could not recommend highly enough (N.b. - it does not have isofix, you’ll need to bring a seatbelt-secured car seat if bringing young kids) September 2024

Thank you so much to Russell for our first experience with a motorhome. Quite easy to drive in the Highlands roads. And quite easy to use. As confortable as home : hot water, fridge, oven, cuttle, toaster, toilets, heating, cosy duvets... We highly appreciated the kindness of Russell, and his reactivity. He drove us back to the airport, so nice ! Just one thing to add: the motorhome is not fairly new, some fournitures or equipment should be replaced or repaired. Just looking forward renting soon from Russell a van to visit the scottish islands ...! August 2024

We had a great trip and enjoyed the motor home experience. Russel was really helpful and gave us excellent advice about the roads and routes prior to leaving. Collecting the MH was straightforward, and we were able to leave our car during the trip, free of charge. Thanks! July 2024

Motorhome was spacious, clean and very comfortable. Plenty of space for a family of four plus a dog. Owner was friendly and helpful when required. Would definitely book again and highly recommend. July 2024

Very freindly , nothing was a hassel. June 2024

The motorhome was great for our tour to the Isle of Skye. Russell was able to pick us up at the airport, thanks again for that. Also a big thank you to Toni who had time to drive us after our tour. May 2024

Russell is a very responsive and kind person, we had a great time exploring Scotland in his campervan! May 2024

We had a very bad experience with Goboony and the owner of the vehicle, we were informed prior to confirming the booking the vehicle was suitable to take our 15month baby as long as we provide the car seat. However after we confirmed the booking the owner couldn't guarantee it. We terminated the agreement before the booking started to get a refund. As a result of the situation Goboony didn't refund any of our monies. We are a family from Australia and we lost the equivalent of $1000 for a trip we never took. Goboony and the owner acted in bad faith. We are currently escalating the situation externally. April 2024

Fabulous trip. Russell efficient and helpful. All very smooth. April 2024

Great motorhome with everything we needed for a family holiday. Russell was friendly and helpful before and during our trip. We would very happily book with him again. April 2024

The kids had a great time and enjoyed their motorhome experience. The weather wasn’t great during the trip but it was convenient and provided safety and comfort for the family. Great experience! Highly recommended! April 2024

Great guy and great Motorhome. Everything perfect. October 2023

Russell was so helpful and friendly. Nothing was too much trouble. Would highly recommend. September 2023

Nice van for 2 people, self sufficient for traveling (fully equipped). It was a great part of our experience in Scotland. Easy to drive the van and spend a few days in it. Many many thanks to Russell for his kindness! August 2023

Had a great time in the Highlands - fantastic communication and vehicle as described. Easy check in and check out - Russell and Kellie were very accommodating when the previous hirers delayed our set off time and will hopefully be returning soon! August 2023

Great to experience our first motorhome adventure, we took in Belladrum festival then a trip down the West coast. Russell was great to deal with and the van was fantastic. Will be doing it again next year for sure August 2023

Amazing service August 2023

Russell is a very friendly person from his friend, we have very important recommendations for our next adventure in Skye... Thanks for your help! August 2023

Really good experience. Russel was excellent and I really enjoyed driving the Motorhome round the islands and highlands. Would recommend a size like this which can sleep up to four as it’s easier to get around in. August 2023

Russell was very helpful and the van was great , keeps everything in tip top condition, went through everything when we arrived to collect the van and got us on our way , the van is amazing, everything you could need. We will definitely be returning July 2023

We did the NC500 in Russell’s van recently. It was great and had all the amenities to live straight out of the van. 100% would recommend and we will be going back again for sure. July 2023

Had the best time on the NC500. Hiring the van was easy and very simple. Russell was very helpful and very informative of the trip. He answers you quickly when you message him. 5 stars from me and I will be doing it again. thanks June 2023
