If you accidentally damage the vehicle we will charge you the amount it costs us to get it repaired or replaced. Copies of receipts can be given.
The camper van looks like it has a lot of kit and appliances. How will I know how it all works.
You will receive a full orientation of the camper, its controls, appliances, safety features and maintenance responsibilities. The orientation will take about an hour, don’t worry if you cannot remember everything, we will give you a complete manual with easy to follow step by step instructions. The manual will also have our emergency contact number should you need any further help.

Each van is also fitted with a 2kg powder fire extinguisher and fire blanket.
Our vans are covered by VW Roadside Assist. Their phone number is on a sticker inside the glove compartment and written in the campers manual. In the unlikely event that they cannot fix the problem, they will bring you back to our depot in Bath and we will supply you another camper van, subject to availability.

About 35-40mpg. Depending on how you drive it.
We always hand the the van over with a full tank of fuel so ask for it to be retuned with a full tank. Too rushed to refuel? We can refuel for you. We will send you all receipts along with a £20 service charge.

The California’s can seat and sleep 4 people.
The shortest hire we do is 3 days. In the peak months it is 7 days minimum hire. If you don’t mind a last minute getaway holiday then we do sometimes have the odd gaps between bookings that we could be flexible with.
