My partner, Luna (our dog), and I spent five days road-tripping along the west coast of the NC500, and we had the best time.
We hired a Mercedes Sprinter from Jason, which we named “Bonnie” for the week. When we picked it up, it was immaculate, and the check-in process only took around 20 minutes. Everything was clearly explained.
The van itself was in excellent condition and easy to drive. It was also fully equipped with everything we needed, from pots and pans to all the utensils for cooking homemade meals. There was even a shower hose at the back, which came in very handy after trips to the beach.
The converter and heater were straightforward to use, and Jason provided a helpful folder with instructions and troubleshooting tips, which was a great touch.
Dropping the van back off was just as easy, the check-out process was quick and hassle-free. Afterwards, we went for lunch and coffee at Jason’s coffee shop and his wonderful emporium of house, garden, and furniture items, Simply Dutch.
We had an incredible experience and would absolutely book again.
Thank you so much, Jason!

Response from Jason
Thank you, Charlotte, for such a wonderful review.
It was a pleasure meeting you, your partner and, of course, Luna! I’m delighted to hear that you had such a great time exploring the west coast of the NC500 and that “Bonnie” helped make the trip a memorable one.
Thank you for looking after the van so well and returning it in immaculate condition. It was a pleasure hosting you, and I’m glad the information folder, equipment and little extras helped make your adventure that bit easier.
It was also lovely to welcome you to Simply Dutch after your trip. We’re so pleased you enjoyed your time with us, both on the road and back at base.
You’re welcome back anytime, and we’d be delighted to see you, your partner and Luna again for another adventure in the future.
Best wishes,
Jason
