Hi Joshua. I'm really pleased the van worked so well for you. It's great to be able to enjoy that off-grid time with the family. Thanks so much for bringing the van back looking so neat.

Joshua
Clifford was a great host and very communicative. He was thorough with handover and the van was a good fit for our trip. The three seats in the back gave my kids plenty room even with two car seats hooked in. Even having my eldest ride up front every once in a while wasn't a problem. The seating was spacious for a family. We camped at a site with no electricity and we seemed well off with the solar panels to charge small devices with no issue when parked.
Chris
Cliff was incredibly helpful and explained everything we needed to know for our weekend away. The van was fantastic, well equipped and very easy to use.
Response from Clifford
Thanks for that Chris. I'm really pleased you enjoyed the van, as we can see from the pics.
Pakana
Lovely VW van, a real pleasure to drive. Just the right size and lots of admiring comments. Cliff is really great too. HI would highly recommend and I will definitely hire again from Cliff 😊 Thank you 😊
Response from Clifford
I'm really pleased the van worked for you. Thanks so much for looking after it so well.
Juliet
Clifford could not have been more accommodating and helpful. The van was exactly as described and we had a wonderful trip. Highly recommend.
Response from Clifford
Thank-you so much for returning the van in such tidy condition. I glad we could juggle our timings so that it all worked out well.
Clare
Cliff made our first trip with Goboony really easy and very enjoyable! Super easy and flexible handover with Cliff He went over all of the details with us.
Black Beauty drives like a dream and has every convenience for campers. Clean, tidy and well equipped, the long wheelbase made it convenient to keep the bed made up throughout our trip. We had a lovely weekend in Suffolk and in spite of the very cold temperatures (we took a lot of blankets) we had an amazing time.
Response from Clifford
Thanks Clare. I'm really pleased to been able to facilitate a fun trip for you.
Robert
What a great Campervan, from arranging collection, using the van and return it was brilliant. The van had everything we needed, was a good drive, great condition and comfortable.
I will certainly be booking again in the future.
Response from Clifford
Really pleased you enjoyed it and that everything worked well. The van has a much more exciting life than me!
Joanne
I have rented Black Beauty twice and each time it has been a fantastic experience. Having autromatic drive makes it particularly easy to get to where you want to go.
Response from Clifford
Thanks Joanne. It was lovely to be able to support your expeditions a second time ― it's a lovely van to drive.
Joanne
Really great campervan. When renting I think having simplicity (less things to break) is a good thing. This van has everything you need rather than all the things you don't need. Cliff is great, very personable and helpful. He is always there at the end of the email too if you need him.
Response from Clifford
Hi Joanne. I'm so glad you enjoyed it. As you say, the van has all the important things to ensure you have fun ― simple but good.
Julie
Myself and my 2 children decided to use a campervan this year for our annual trip to Mersea. Both handovers collecting and returning were quick and simple. The van was great to drive and the kids had plenty of choices of where to sit/sleep and the pop top was easy to use too.
Response from Clifford
Hi Julie ― I'm so pleased you and your children enjoyed your break, and that the van played its part in that. Thanks for bringing it back so neat and tidy.
Mark
This was our first campervan experience and cliff was so helpful with all aspects, enquiring beforehand, booking, handover and return. Couldn’t have asked for a better experience from Cliff.
The campervan itself was a very good standard and very easy to drive. We were impressed with the fuel efficiency which was a nice surprise.
Our own learning was to take extra pillows and a mattress topper as we liked a softer sleeping area.
Response from Clifford
Thank-you for that Mark. I'm really pleased your first experience of life in a campervan was so good. The VW with its auto gearbox is a delight to drive and provides a comfortable home from home that fits into a parking space. The RIB bed (the wider version this van provides for 3 belted seats in the rear when you're travelling) has an excellent reputation for its engineering, but some people do find them rather firm.
William
Great camper drives really well and does exactly what it says on the tin when u get to the camp site great experience
Response from Clifford
Thanks a lot for that review, and for looking after the van so well. It's designed to offer high-quality simplicity on a wonderful base vehicle.
Alyson
A great van for touring
Has everything you need
Response from Clifford
Hi Alyson. I'm so pleased you enjoyed it for your great 3-week Scottish adventure. Thank-you for returning it looking so smart.
James
My wife and I along with our daughter hired Clifford’s VW camper for 3 nights to head to the coast. It was a last minute hire (night before) but Clifford couldn’t have been more helpful with making sure the van would be ready for us in the morning.
During pickup we were shown all the features of the van as this was a first time camper experience for us. Everything we needed was there, Clifford was even kind enough to lend us a dog bowl and blanket for our little dog we brought with us on the trip. Van performed without issue for our 3 days off grid trip.
On handing back the van no issues at all, deposit returned within hours.
Thanks Cliff, I think we’ll be back again!
Response from Clifford
It was great to be able to help you enjoy the weekend ― so pleased you enjoyed the experience.
