Great van! Would recommend. Owner is lovely and give a great handover showing us the ropes and explaining any tips/tricks. Following her advice meant we never had any issues during our hire. We are new to campervans too. Van is clean and fairly new and we encounted zero issues. There is a good spec on this van, such as the off-grid kit, smart TV, 5G wifi, onboard waste/water; cassette toilet and LPG heater. The owner is dog friendly and she allowed our small well behaved dog to join us. Although no dog hair was found in the van. The van was well stocked with everything you would need. There was a hair dryer, vacuum cleaner, fly zapper, torches, wireless charger, fan, deck chairs etc. Everything you need such as electric hook-up, water hose, plates, pans etc was included in the van for us to use. The owner kindly stocked the van with milk, butter, bread, bacon and coffee etc which was kind. Fresh bedding was provided and clean towels. It is easy to drive if you are used to larger vehicles. Being Ducato based it drives well. Although a manual, you shouldn't be put off. We took the van to Galloway Forest and lived off-grid. We found with small daily drives and the little sun we had for the 100w solar panel, we were waking up with about 80% battery left. We were not watching our useage either and were using the invertor for the toaster, TV was on every night, soundbar for music when parked up. There is a firestick and you can pay to use the 5G wifi, but we brought our own firestick and just hotspotted our phones with no issues. We averaged around 35mpg which was good for the hills around Galloway Forest and we were using the LPG for cooking twice daily and running the hotwater/heater. The van is not cold, with the outside temperature dropping during the night, the heater was very toasty. The built in Truma heater/boiler was great and easy to use. I believe for a near 700mile trip we spent £110 on diesel and £9 on LPG. LPG is easy to fill being the standard bayonet fitting that most LPG stations use. There is on-board water, waste and a cassette toilet with electric flush. You could get 2 days out of the 90 litre water tank if you watched your usage and had quick showers. We would try to fill up when we could at petrol stations or being cheeky at caravan parks that we drove past. The bed is easy to put up and down and so is the manual awning. You can pack up and go within 20 mins. There are flyscreens fitted all round which is a must. The in-built blinds made the van dark enough to sleep, although the owner offered a silverscreen for the front... but its not needed. Theres plenty of storage with a wardrobe in the toilet, under seat storage. Overall, very happy with our hire and it has given us the bug! We would hire again. Giugno 2024
