Orange Beast – 2 berth Volkswagen bus from 1996

Lewis was great, always on hand to answer any queries and driving this classic was a pleasure once I got used to it's little quirks! Loved every second. October 2024

Excellent communication from the word go, and wonderful patience when I had a banking security issue. Pick up is easy walking distance from Poole train station. Orange Beast is a beautiful example of a modern classic camper, and has been well looked after. More of a sunset amber than foxy orange. No dramas getting moving with great handover, including good attention to detail on first parade. We headed out into the long summer shadows of the Purbecks via the Sandbanks ferry, swimming at Studland and camping on the well drained ground of Tom's Field at Langton Matravers. Easy walking onto Dancing Ledge and out to the SW Coastal Path. We found out way to Lulworth Cove for the second night, with a cracking beach BBQ under clear starry skies before coming up for breakfast at Creech with views over Tyneham and the ranges. Great food and drink on the way from village stores at Corfe Castle and the ever awesome Square and Compass at Worth Matravers. Really enjoyed the freedom and comfort of a campervan, particularly when seasonal weather would have soaked a canvas camp. Orange Beast extra special with eye catching character and great proximity to the Purbecks. September 2024

Took this van to Cornwall and really enjoyed it. It was just what I needed and Lewis has got it all clean and ready. Everything worked in the van. It’s a powerful diesel engine but struggles a bit on the big hills. Recommended! August 2024

Brilliant van and host. All as described. I would defo re book for any other trip we plan. So pleased. Effortless and Lewis was great at communicating Can recommend highly enough June 2024

I took the campervan down to the south of France and it was an amazing experience. The van was a bit of a learning curve at first as I hadn't driven a diesel like it before, but it was super reliable and Lewis was very helpful giving me a lesson at the begining, boosting my confidence. When showing me round, he was very relaxed but made sure to cover everything and check that I was happy with everything. 10/10 will be taking the campervan out again for another trip! August 2022

I had a great scuba diving trip to Cornwall in this campervan. The bed was super comfortable, and the black out effective so I slept really well. I found the gears hard work being used to an electric, automatic and gave myself a fright leaning on the hot/cold fan switch as it makes quite a noise, but it was perfect for what I wanted, lots of storage space and enough equipment to be self sufficient for a few days.
