Travelled to Wales for 2 nights in Ruby. The whole experience from collecting Ruby to the stay was amazing. Colin was really helpful and a really nice touch was the milk and croissants provided on collection! Ruby was easy to drive and contained everything I needed for my trip!! Would definitely recommend hiring from Colin and will be back for any future trips !! March 2025

Amazing experience from start to finish! First time in a camper van and we loved every minute. Colin & Mark were both incredibly friendly, helpful and always very quick to repond to any queries. Pick up and drop off were easy. Camper was clean and tidy with everything you could need. Will definitely hire again. Would highly recommend 😄 October 2024

This was a first for me and my boyfriend renting a Campervan and we enjoyed it so much! The van had everything we could have needed with some extras (coffee machine and the croissants where a nice touch). Colin & Mark explained everything thoroughly during the handover, and arranged a later return time with us meaning we could stay away an extra night which we really appreciated. We took the van to Wales, staying in a different area each night. We found the pull out bed comfortable and all in all pack up took about 5/10 minutes and we were off on our way again. Highly recommend! September 2024

We hired VW Campervan (Frank) from Camperz4hire which was fantastic and the service from start to finish was excellent, on arrival for pick up we had a full demonstration of how to use the van and air awning etc . A fantastic weekend was had at VDUbs in the valley. if you’re looking for a top quality campervan with great service then can highly recommend Colin & his team. September 2024

This was our second time hiring a campervan from Colin and Mark - we would definitely recommend! The campervans are well equipped and the guys are always on hand. We had a great time exploring Skye with Big Green! September 2024
Kirsty Kirsty
Absolutely fantastic host! Myself , partner & our dog stitch took a trip to Scotland on the NC500 route, we hired the big Green 2 and wow it did not disappoint. Our first time hiring a camper-van it certainly exceeded our expectations and more! It was well equipped & very spacious…. Love love LOVE!!. We can’t thank Collin enough for his great service’s & 24/7 on hand support throughout our journey. We would highly recommend this company & we just can’t wait to rebook again for our next trip.

Colin was great from start to end. Communication was perfect and quick responses to my many questions. We travelled for 2 weeks around the Hebrides and west coast of Scotland. Marty was a great motorhome, everything worked amazingly which was perfect when we didn't have hook ups booked. The special touches when we picked up the van, prosecco, beers and even fresh croissants was so lovely and unexpected! Thank you for allowing us to hire one of your vans! We will be back! August 2024

Picking up the Campervan was delayed but this wasn`t Colins fault rather the previous hirers` returning it 2 hours late. Colin kept us to date and worked hard to get it ready for us as quickly as possible. The handover was smooth and everyone was very friendly and flexible on the return details as our start was delayed. `Bob` was a joy to drive and everything we could have wanted was provided including a dinner set !. We were newbies to this and so booked 2 sites in the lakes but will be back at the end of the summer for hopefully a longer spell and venture further and try our hand at staying somewhere a bit more isolated. July 2024
Joe Joe
We had a great time travelling around Scotland in Frank. It's such a nicely kitted out camper and we even got a complimentary bottle of fizz to get us started. Colin was very helpful and quick to answer any questions we had. Would definitely recommend July 2024
Dan Dan
Colin was very flexible with the pick up time of the van and on arrival he gave both me and my girlfriend a full tour highlighting all the important things we needed to know about the van. Our first stop was up to Peebles followed by North Berwick to watch the Scottish Open and then up to Loch Lomond. We had never rented a camper van before we had both been camping but we're very keen to give a campervan a try and we're very glad we did. The campervan was super cozy and we had all the essentials we needed thanks to Collin! Colin was on standby to assist if needed and was also very helpful and friendly when speaking on the phone. We would definitely rent another campervan and recommend both Colin and his brother Mark. Both were super friendly on pick up and drop off of the van. Thank you both and hopefully see you again in the future! Dan and Kate July 2024

The booking and handover process with Colin was made very easy by his helpful and friendly nature. We took Bob the van to a friend’s wedding and it was a wonderful treat for our family of four who usually stay in a tent. We absolutely loved staying in Bob and will very likely book to do so again :-) July 2024
James James
Great van & service from Colin & the team. Would recommend booking with them July 2024
Simon Simon
Very good service, handover was quick and friendly, and a nice, scrupulously clean van. I’ve not driven a transporter that new before but it’s surprisingly manoeuvrable and easy to drive. Altogether an excellent experience. June 2024
Response from Colin Hi Simon, thank you for kind review and looking after Bob this weekend. Looks like you had a fab time and touched super lucky with the weather. Look forward to seeing you both again soon. Thanks again Colin.

Michael Michael
We hired this VW Campervan which was fantastic and the service from start to finish made everything so easy. My questions were quickly answered and the vehicle was ready on time. We had a full demonstration of how to use the van and then enjoyed a few days away. If you’re looking for a top quality campervan with great service then can highly recommend Colin. May 2024
Response from Colin Hi Michael, thank you for the lovely review, it was a pleasure to have you hire from us and look forward to seeing you in the future. Thanks Colin
Deborah Deborah
Perfect from start to finish. Colin went through everything thoroughly when we went to pick the van up. Showed us how everything works so it was easy to use once we got to our campsite. The van had everything we needed and it all worked perfectly, very well thought out. Lovely to drive. Bringing it back was also very easy. They even let us store our car there safely so dropping off the van and collecting our car was a breeze. Thanks so much guys for the use of Bob, we loved him ❤️ May 2024
Response from Colin Hi Debbie, thank you for your lovely review. BOB came back immaculate and they kept us informed with their arrival times. They’ve bought their own based on the trip so hopefully many happy adventures to come. :-)
Rebecca Rebecca

Response from Colin Thanks Rebecca . We are made up you had a great time and can’t wait for you to hire again..

Renting a van with camperz4hire was the best thing we could ever do this weekend. Colin and Mark were always so nice and kind to us since the first moment of the negociation, with a lot of patience with our different contrys documents. Frank, the van, is so modern and tecnologic that makes so easy to drive during our 3 days in Scotland. Everything was very well cleaned and organized, they left some useful things for us and it was really kindfull (croissant, milk, sugar, kitchen necessities, and cleaning wipes). Having unlimited mileage during the trip makes a really big difference compared to other rental companies. This allowed us to have a more flexible itinerary without worrying about excess kilometers. l would totally recomend camperz4hire for my friends and family. April 2024
Danny Danny
The camper van was lovely to drive. Small touches had been added to make the trip more comfortable - tea and coffee, beer and Prosecco. However, unfortunately, the diesel heater didn’t work - meaning we couldn’t camp off grid. We had to sign up to camp sites at the last minute which was expensive. The passenger seat was not well installed, it was really very difficult to turn around and create a living space. April 2024

Amazing service from Colin and mark wouldn’t fault them at all, was quick and easy would highly recommend 👍🏻 February 2024

Fantastic service, very quick communication and we had a fantastic time in the van. It was spotlessly clean and we had everything we needed. October 2023
Sharon Sharon
First time doing a campervan adventure. Would highly recommend. Was easy to book through goboony who provided further information to help with planning our adventure. Colin and mark (campervan owners) were very helpful and replied to any of our queries straight away. The campervan was amazing and had everything you need for an enjoyable stay. Colin even put in extras which was a very pleasant surprise. Cannot wait for our next adventure. Would like to thank goboony, Colin and Mark for making our adventure stress free from beginning to end. Sharon and Ste. October 2023

Had the pleasure of hiring the Big Green van off Colin and Mark. They were very professional from start to finish they are such lovely people to deal with and this was our second van we have hired from them. The van was spotless and they went through everything with us from how to work the cooker etc right down to the awning. They even left little treats for us which was really nice of them. They know how to make you feel special as clients. I will definitely be hiring from them again and I would highly recommend you having a look at their Van's. They are not only people we have hired Van's from but they now feel like friends. Thanks again Mark and Colin 5 stars +++++ September 2023
Sam Sam
We had the best time adventuring in 'Bob'. The campervan was spotless when we picked it up and Colin & team were so helpful and friendly. Everything has been thought of - the van is so well equipped and the storage options are great. Hope to book again and would definitely recommend! September 2023
John John
Great experience from start to finish. Van is in great nick Very informative Come with all the extras inc. a blow up awning I would definitely recommend these guys - if you want a modern van with lads who know what they're doing at a decent price, then look no further! August 2023
John John
We were delighted with our camper van. Communication was excellent and I would happily recommend Colin to anyone looking to hire a van. We would happily return for another hire. August 2023
David David
This was our first time using goboony and first time staying in a camper van, but Colin was brilliant and made the process really straight forward and we had full confidence going into the experience. The van was spotless and well kitted out, it made our weekend away really special! Would highly recommend! August 2023

Joe Joe
5 stars and I very rarely give 5 stars as I believe there is always room for improvements, but honestly from start to finish the whole thing was easy, efficient and stress free. We used this trip with my wife and our dog as our first anniversary break, and glad we did, Colin & mark was a pleasure to deal with they helped us out with planning to comfort and even gifted us a bottle of bubbly & some balloons when we arrived to collect the campervan as a anniversary gift, so straight from the start they had us 👌🏼👌🏼. They Was always at hand to answer any questions or advice whilst we was on the road, regardless of the time. As for the van, that was also a dream, stylish, comfortable and easy to drive/set up. The few days we had it were excellent, everyone was stopping to compliment the van. There’s much more to it but I would definitely recommend and use these guys again (that’s if we don’t have our own by then). Thanks again lads, have a great summer 👍🏼👍🏼 Joe, Stacey & Bowie 🐾 June 2023
Simon Simon
The Campervan was in perfect condition and had all the amenities we required. Colin was great to deal with and answered all our questions promptly prior to booking. On the day, he explained thoroughly how everything worked. I would definitely recommend and we will be booking again. April 2023
Jaz Jaz
Hired Colin’s Van. First time camping as a family so we’re apprehensive. Luckily, Colin catered for everything, gave great advice, made things easy and we had a great time as a result. The van is lovely and easy to drive, the awning is a must. Will definitely be messaging Colin about another trip in warmer weather. April 2023
Joanne Joanne
Absolutely amazing trip! Big Green is a perfect campervan with everything you need (and more). Colin made the trip super easy and we loved it… can’t wait to book again! April 2023
Daniel Daniel
Great communication and handover from Colin. Big Green is a lovely van and very well equipped with everything we needed for our Welsh trip. Kids loved it and so did I! Will certainly rent again. April 2023
