The van was better than expected, saying that was a home away from home is falling short, Brian and Pat, tough of every single detail to make your holiday as comfortable and pleasant as possible, they are telling the truth when saying only bring your clothes and food. Really pleased that we will only hire from someone else if this one is not available.

The van is 10 out of 10 , we hired the Manta Ray it was extremely well equipped and you wont get a better nights sleep anywhere so so comfortable. Brian and Pat are fantastic hosts and will let you know everything you need to have a great trip. Fully recommend hiring their Caravan and we will definitely do it again for any trip we do in future.

From Brian dropping off the van and the walk through to the return of the van, everything was exceptional. The van had everything you could think you'd need and more and is in amazing condition. My family enjoyed every moment away in it and will definitely be we hiring again. Thank you again for allowing us to hire your van we truly appreciate it.
