Can’t thank you enough! The whole process from start to finish was simple, straightforward and friendly. We had an amazing experience with Tarquin and enjoyed my birthday cake too. Thanks Rich and Jess, hope to see you again soon! 🤘 May 2025
Response from Rich We’re so glad you enjoyed it and hope to welcome you back!
Sebastian Sebastian
Lovely, comfortable and well equipped van. Everything was in good condition and Rich very helpful in explaining all, as well as being on the end of the phone if help was needed! April 2025
Response from Rich Thanks Seb and we hope to welcome you back to Cornwall again soon!
Daniel Daniel
Easy booking process, and great communication with the owner Rich. The handover was straightforward with everything fully explained/demonstrated. Lovely fully equipped camper with plenty of space, and easy to drive. We thoroughly enjoyed our trip away and would definitely hire this camper again April 2025
Response from Rich Thanks Daniel!
Stefan Stefan
We had a fabulous time with Tarquin last weekend. Richard was really helpful on arrival and talked us through popping the roof up, taking it back down, and everything else we needed to know as first timers in a camper. We had plenty of space to pack all our stuff out the way, and really enjoyed having a fridge for chilled beers and wine. A definite upgrade on previous camping experiences. Sleeping too was quiet, comfortable, and warm. September 2024
Response from Rich Many thanks Stefan- we’re glad that you both enjoyed your advanture!

Thanks Rich for the great support on our first trip with a campervan! Cornwall is a fantastic camping paradise with great pitches. We drove around for 14 days and are thrilled with the country and its people. We particularly liked (“insider” tips ;-): - the small beach at Tintangle Castle (for relatively secluded swimming in the last hour of opening time) - the artists' studios in St. Ives - the dune landscape north of the town of "Rock" on the Camel River - the yurts on Sarah & Rob's farm (Tremeer Farm Yurt Cornwall), where our daughter collected fresh eggs for breakfast from the chickens - the foodist scene in Padstow - the warm Jubilee Pool (Art Nouveau bath) in Pencance in the drizzle - the sumptuous cream tea in a cake stand in the St. Michaels Mount restaurant - the lively beach bar on Lusty Glaze Beach - the Cornish coastal path with descents to small dream bays - these gardens - incredibly lush - the foodist scene in Padstow We will be back definitely! July 2024
Response from Rich Thanks Enno! We’re so happy you had a great holiday and Tarquin suited your needs

Second time hiring from Rich, this time Tarquin rather than Gino. Tarquin is quite an upgrade, with considerably more space and a few extra facilities (the heater was useful on cold nights), but still easy to drive. As before, Rich was very helpful with the booking, and arranging delivery and pickup of the van. I'm looking forward to the next trip. July 2024
Response from Rich Many thanks for your kind words; don’t forget you will get a discount on your next booking with TTarquin!

We had the most amazing time with tarquin, an excellent van with everything we could need and more 🤩 Rich and the family were amazing hosts and couldn’t be more helpful, would well recommend! 👍🏼 June 2024
Response from Rich Thanks Stu, we’re glad you loved Tarquin and look forward to welcoming you back to Cornwall with a discount on your next booking!
Rachel Rachel
Fantastic camper! Rich was brilliant, thorough handover and made himself available during the rental in case we had any problems. We rented the van in April, using the heater for a little while in the evening left the van cosy for the rest of the night. Everything you need for the camping experience is provided. Had a great experience, thanks Rich!! May 2024
Response from Rich Thank you so much, we hope you will be back for more advantures!!

We live in Cornwall and only have a small ( electric) car. So Gino was hired to help us revisit old haunts from when we would arrive in an old camper with 5 kids on board. And he was great. We didn’t sleep in him ( this time) but visited Padstow, Heligan Gardens, the Lizard and environs. Great to park up and just….look. It could have been better. But Gino is not responsible for the weather. Eating and drinking was strictly inside! Rich was lovely to deal with. Very helpful, relaxed and organised! We’ll be back. March 2024
Response from Rich Thanks Donald for the kind words and Gino is excited for your next adventure!
Phil Phil
We had a brilliant time in Gino! We spent five days travelling in Cornwall and Gino was perfect. Very well equipped and myself, my wife our one year old son were very comfortable. Rich was so helpful showing us how everything worked and answering all our questions. We'd definitely hire Gino again! September 2023
Debbie Debbie
Gino was great and really did meet our expectations :) He was a joy to drive and the four-wheel-drive was excellent for manoeuvring through a field. The handover was very thorough and we received a video with further instructions about the roof, which was really helpful. We really enjoyed our long weekend away in Gino and felt we had just about everything you need. The waterproof sheet and camping chairs were an added bonus too. I would definitely recommend him :) August 2023
Simon Simon
We had a brilliant week in Gino, and would absolutely hire him again. Rich was easy to talk to and very helpful on collection, showing us how things work and where bits are kept. The van is well stocked with everything you could need which is was so helpful, and was a joy to drive! We feel so lucky to have gone on an adventure around such a beautiful part of the world in such a great campervan! August 2023
Jessica Jessica
Thank you Rich for a great experience using your campervan. We loved all of the detail that was inside including everything that you could need for a successful camping trip, including goodies he left us which helped with the excitement of also having small two kids with us (!) The only thing that was a little tricky was the lock situation which sometimes seem to get stuck, however, Rich was always at the end of the phone to help us sort this little problem which he mentioned he is going to have a look at soon. Highly recommend this campervan. July 2023
Roger Roger
I rented Gino for my first Glastonbury and he looked after me really well for the weekend. He is very well equipped with all you could need including important little things like a stock of condiments, tea and coffee. The blackout works well, the solar panel keeps the leisure battery topped up, interior lighting is good, cooking and fridge/freezer all work well too. The pop up roof allows plenty of headroom and the bed is comfortable. Rich is really easy to deal with and very accommodating for pick up and drop off. I'd definitely hire again. June 2023
Sophie Sophie
Lovely campervan - extremely clean and well equipped and the owner Rich was super easy to communicate with. Would 100% use again and would definitely recommend June 2023
Tony Tony
Really great to rent Gino to serve as our home on wheels for a weekend. He gets admiring looks wherever he goes and is comfortable for longer trips. Everything practical we needed was found in the plentiful drawers and cupboards. We took him on some rough tracks at the festival we were going to and at a great campsite in Doone Valley, Devon and he didn’t miss a beat. Having a heating system meant we were warm and cosy on the one chilly night. The blackout/insulated blinds work really well at keeping the light out and warmth in. Had a really good time spending the weekend in this campervan, and found Rich very easy to work with making all the arrangements. June 2022
