T5 campervan hire

As a small party travelling to Leeds festival we decided to treat ourselves and hire a campervan. Rather than dealing with tents the thought of having a solid secure 'digs' in which to sleep and chill out was very appealing. As was the prospect of having the ability to make a cup of tea or coffee so the van needed to have a small stove to boil water on.We stumbled across the Camperbug site, which was excellent, and trawled the vast array of vans available. We eventually settled on 'Duggie'. A cracking van located near Essex and East London border.We found Duggies owners, Silvana and Richard, a pleasure to deal with who kept us well informed every step of the way. As this was our first time hiring a van we were slightly nervous but they were very reassuring regarding driving and using Duggie. When we picked him up we were given a very thorough demonstration of how to transform Duggie from a comfortable, spacious easy to drive vehicle for motorway travel into a very practical 4 berth 'home from home'.Duggie is a relatively recent conversion and as a result all fixtures and fittings within are pristine and worked faultlessly. That said, it's obvious when speaking to them that Silvana and Richard both care about Duggie and I suspect, new conversion or not, Duggie will continue to be maintained to a high standard no matter how old he gets. The pop-up lid allows for much appreciated headroom when required and doubles as a top bunk with memory foam mattress that comfortably sleeps two. Below is a compact 2-ring gas burner and tap to provide cold water from an on-boardtank. The back seats and rear 'parcel shelf' convert into another comfortable bed. There's also a very nice, clean fridge with small freezer compartment. Its a well thought out and well executed configuration.Duggie comes well stocked and there are plenty of plates, pots, pans, cups, cutlery etc. available to keep everyone fed and watered. There's also a nice 'wind-out' awning that provides a decent shade above the side door which turned out to be a real bonus considering the temperatures that were reached that weekend.Although we didn't know Duggie very long he was an instant hit, quickly becoming a best friend to our group. He gave us somewhere comfy to sit and sleep and looked after our belongings when we ventured off. He kept our gadgets charged and our wine chilled. I would not hesitate to book Duggie again and would like to thank Silvana, Richard and Duggie for making our festival experience much more enjoyable as a result.

We hired "Clockwork orange" camper from Ed for a weekend break. The camper is brand new and has been converted to a great standard. We particularly liked the layout of the van which has maximised the space for a comfortable stay. The camper has a good size fridge, cooker and sink along with plenty of storage. The bed is super comfy with a memory foam topper and the blackout blinds and window covers worked well at keeping it private and dark. Nice touches include several USB charging ports for phones, mood lighting and cool bluetooth speakers. Most importantly in April was a really good central heating system!Booking and communication with Ed was simple and there is off street parking available for your car on collection.We will defiantly book clockwork orange again in the summer.Thanks Ed for a great weekend!
