Hey, I'm David!

Glasgow, United Kingdom – Member since August 2022

I’m David, adventurer, traveller, explorer. If I’m not up on the mountain by foot then there’s a good chance I’m up there on my bike! Absolutely love Scotland and all it has to offer outdoors! Whether it be wild swimming, hiking, kayaking, cycling or just going a walk, you’re never too far from an adventure, and that’s why I decided to build my campervan. My favourite spot to go has to be Glen Etive. The Scenery is unreal! Loads of deer/stags to be seen up here, surrounded by mountains, endless walks and loads of places to take a dip. You just don’t get much better than that! 🥾 🏔 🦌 🏊‍♂️ 🏊‍♀️

We had an amazing time in David’s campervan, it was perfect for the two of us and our trip to the Isle of Mull. Drove really nicely, great to cook and sleep in. David was a perfect host, too, being really responsive and helpful in the set up. September 2025

The best trip we’ve ever been on! We loved staying in the van whilst exploring the NC500z David couldn’t have been any more helpful - everything was straight forward and being first time camper-vanners he walked us through everything. The van was really well kitted out and had everything we needed and then some. We’re already planning our next trip 🥹 August 2025

We rented Bamboo Bennie for 13 days and 12 nights, and had an absolutely amazing trip! The van is super well-equipped: it includes everything you need for cooking — pots, a kettle, a frying pan, plates of different sizes, two mugs, cutlery, a sharp knife, and a bottle opener. The only thing missing was a coffee maker, so we brought our own French press, which we’d definitely recommend if you're into your morning brew! For sleeping, the van comes with clean and fresh bedding — a comfy duvet, mattress topper, four pillows — and even towels, which was a nice touch. It’s very easy to drive and didn’t use much fuel during our trip. The pop-up roof is a big bonus as it lets you stand up inside comfortably, and the van’s layout is intuitive and easy to get used to. David was incredibly nice and helpful from the start. He answered all our questions quickly, gave us great tips, and made the whole rental process smooth and stress-free. We travelled through the Outer Hebrides and took the van on five different ferries with no issues. The outdoor table and chairs were perfect for meals with stunning views of Scotland’s wild landscapes. We really recommend Bamboo Bennie for anyone looking to explore Scotland by van! Our only suggestion: it would be great to have an awning or shelter for rainy stops — but David told us that’s already being added. We’d love to rent Bamboo Bennie again next time we’re in Scotland!

The whole trip was amazing. David was very helpful and thought of everything in the van. We went on a roadtrip for 6 days and slept very comfortably, found calm spots for the night and went on great activities thanks to David's tips. The kitchen area is fully-equiped and we had everything to make good meals. We really hope to be back. July 2025

Dealing with David was first class from start to finish. Clear communication and instructions on where to meet him and any other details about the booking. He spent as long as we needed going iver the van and its features, he was also very transparent about any marks or nicks on the van before we signed the paperwork. He van itself worked perfectly and everything was exactly as described by David. David also accommodated us bringing the van back early which we appreciated. Would not hesitate to book again and in fact we will in the autumn. Thank you David. June 2025

David was very communicative and the process was easy when handing over. My partner, dog and I travelled the NC500 and this was the perfect camper to do it in. The camper had everything we needed and was spacious. We will be using this vehicle again in the future. April 2025
Response from David Thank you for the nice review. Glad you both enjoyed your trip :)

Great contact with David before handover. A comprehensive run down on how everything worked at handover and David was also really responsive with any queries while on the road. The van itself was great to drive, easy to use and fitted our trip to the Lake District perfectly. April 2025

Esperienza bellissima! Con David è stato tutto semplicissimo, lui è una persona davvero bella e disponibile, sia prima che durante il viaggio. Il van è stupendo, dotato di tutto il necessario e molto comodo. Addirittura meglio che nelle foto! Abbiamo apprezzato molto la batteria elettrica, avendo il van un pannello solare è praticamente autonomo in tutto e per tutto. Consigliamo assolutamente questo van e questa esperienza. Abbiamo percorso 800 miglia meravigliose August 2024
Response from David Thank you Alessandro! :)

Everything was very fair with David. He was absolutely helpful in everything. I can only recommend it to everyone. The route was Glasgow-Sky-Edinborough-Glasgow in 8 days. The VW had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable. Thank you for everything! July 2024
Response from David You’re very welcome :)

TL,DR: This is the van you want, stop looking. Where to even begin? The start of small pre-wedding trip was met with the kindness and sweet hospitality of David and, to be honest, his whole family! We were so warmly welcomed with two specially crafted presents: each with the exact ingredients, glasses and even ice type for two cocktails to enjoy along the way with heartfelt personal notes to wish us well for the start of this next chapter together. Such a level of care and attentiveness couldn't have been expected even in the fanciest of hotels--lucky for us, we were about to travel in David's van. David took the time to explain everything to us in detail, answering our silliest questions and even letting us practice setting up and closing down the backseat/bed before we left. And then the van! It is so well organised, with everything you might need to enjoy some nights under the stars, including kitchen supplies, towels, toilet roll, bedding, and even bug spray ;)! With great tips from our host, we were able to see a lot of absolutely stunning landscapes and Scottish nature that just simply wouldn't have been accessible otherwise. The van ran great, was comfy, cozy, super clean and all around the perfect home on wheels for our trip. On our last day, we found it really hard to say goodbye and couldn't have asked for anything more lovely. Thank you so much to David for taking such amazing care of us and for trusting us with your VW, it made a special time all the more memorable. July 2024
Response from David You’re both very welcome! And congratulations again on your wedding, and also for the lovely card I received from you both! :)

David was great, shared some good tips of places to stop off and visit on the way to our destination. Van was cosy and well equipped. We hope we can hire from David again. July 2024

This was my first time hiring a Campervan from anyone. The handover took place at a convenient spot for both of us and David ran me through all the stuff I needed to know about the van. I headed off down to England to a military reunion for the week in a field. I had hired this to save myself sleeping in a tent. It was worth it. The Campervan was very comfortable and easy to use all the facilities inside it. Slept like a wee baby. David’s motorhome was just perfect and it was turning heads when in the field by all the tent people. Got great mileage as well. Over 675 miles to the tank. I will definitely be back chapping on David’s door to hire this again. June 2024

Les contacts avec David ont été faciles et fluides avant le voyage. Il a été très arrangeant et plein de petites attentions avant notre départ. Le van est très pratique et bien équipé : deux taques de cuisson, un petit frigo, un évier, la vaisselle et les ustensiles de cuisine nécessaires, des draps, des chaises de camping, un panneau solaire et des prises USB, un éclairage cosy pour le soir... Bref, tout ce qu'il faut pour un voyage parfait à travers l'Ecosse ! April 2024
Response from David Thank you for your kind words Estelle! So glad you enjoyed your Scottish trip :) I’m glad I could help point you in the right direction for places to visit and things to do.

The VW Campervan was great. It was well fitted out and had most things we needed. David was very helpful and explained everything clearly before we set off. The trip was fantastic with great scenery and campsites in the Scottish Highlands, Goboony provided an excellent platform for hiring, insuring etc. October 2023

Great motorhome, really slick inside w wooden panels. Comfy bed, all essentials included and well organised. David was also super helpful in suggesting places to go, helping w queries and will be sure to re-book when we are next in Scotland. June 2023

We rented this van for a week for a road trip around the highlands of Scotland and had a great time. It is a good size and very well equipped. We flew to Glasgow so couldn't bring lots of gear. It was helpful all bedding, camping chairs, thermos' and lots of water tanks was provided. Van was very easy to drive and comfortable to sleep in at night. It was our first van experience and David was a great help. Would highly recommend hiring this and will definitely hire through David again! May 2023
