Michael
The whole trip (minus the weather) was brilliant.
From the initial booking - Padraig(Paulie) was great with communication and really accommodating!
The handover - Really straightforward (my first time hiring a campervan). Showed us everything we needed (and things we didn't use ha), how everything worked, gave tips and after a quick signature of agreement, off we went 🙂
The trip - to do some walking ear Ullswater. Stayed on a few campsites as we weren't ready for the 'rough' layby/field stays - creature comforts like toilets and showers were needed this time lol
The drive - such a smooth ride, no issues at all, fuel consumption was great too, nearly 200 miles on quarter tank (roughly £40)
All in all a great trip, would have no doubts at all booking through him again!
Vicky
We've just spent an excellent 5 days touring Northumberland in Paudie's VW 5.1 Campervan. The handover was excellent, very efficient and Paudie was amenable to our slightly late arrival. We also decided last minute not to take the awning which he took away for us, without any issues. The campervan was super clean and had everything we needed. We were really comfortable, however next time we might try a long wheel base camper, for a longer bed since my husband is 6ft, 3! He could stand up in this one easily, but just something for us to bear in mind. Thanks Paudie for everything.
Response from Padraig
Wow, great feedback and amazing photos Vicky, many thanks again for the booking. Thanks Paudie
Lisa
A fantastic experience from start to finish. The camper was immaculate, easy to drive and had everything you needed and more!
Paudie was excellent, so helpful a great communicator who explained everything in detail. I am definitely converted and have already booked again for next year!
Response from Padraig
Super stuff, thanks Lisa :-)

Carl
We loved our weekend away in Paudie’s camper-lovely to drive and he really had thought of everything you might need, the van was really well equipped.
The camper was immaculate and lovely and comfortable, I would certainly recommend.
Paudie was great to deal with too-thanks again
Response from Padraig
Many thanks Carl, hope to see you again.
Martin
Hired the Goatmobile for a 10 night jaunt up the Wild Arlantic Way.
Could not recommend this guy enough!
Not only was the camper superb and of a high spec, but Padraig has it kitted with everything you could possibly need..... and more.
And if the van isn't impressive enough.... Padraig is super helpful, responsive and a really nice guy.
Great to deal with and had some great tips/advice to make our adventure even better.
Don't hesitate to book with Padraig, you won't regret it..... I'd be surprised if you found better service elsewhere.
We'll be back for the Goatmobile again, without a doubt.
Cheers Paudie.
Response from Padraig
Many thanks Martin, glad you had a great time over in my homeland, some amazing photos and a pleasure to deal with :-)
Rebecca
Had an excellent experience hiring Goat Mobile 1. Myself and my family spent 4 days in the Lake District using both the immaculate camper van and awning. It also came packed with everything you need and more. Paudie was great right from the initial booking enquiring to collection and returning. Great memories were made and we would absolutely recommend! Thank you so much!
Response from Padraig
Many thanks Rebecca, super customer and lovely people, glad you had a great time.
Carly
This was our first time hiring a camper and we're so pleased we did!! We had an amazing time in Port Patrick, Scotland. The van drove like a dream and certainly did not disappoint. The owner Padraig was fantastic, he gave a detailed tour of the van on collection so we knew exactly what to do when we arrived. Even before this, his communication was second to none. I had a lot of questions and Padraig was more than happy to answer! The van itself came so well equipped with everything from an awning and porta potty to a full set of cutlery and crockery. All we needed to pack was ourselves and our bedding. If you're thinking of hiring I would highly recommend Padraig and his amazing van.

Response from Padraig
Thank you so much Carly, much appreciated, glad you all had a great time.

Heather
Paudie made the van collection process very easy and was flexible with pick up and drop off time too which was fab for me. The van is immaculate and is so well equipped it has everything you need. The awning that comes with the van is easy to pup up and gives you so much extra space when set up on site. Definitely recommend this van and will use again if in that area.
Response from Padraig
Many thanks Heather,
Lovely photos and glad to see the little girl enjoyed her stay also. Paws always welcomed.
Hopefully see you again.
Cheers Paudie
Angela
We hired the VW campervan for our trip to the highlands and Skye . Paudie gave a thorough handover. The VW was clean on pick up and had everything we needed with lots of extras supplied (camping chairs, table etc). The VW was great to drive. It handled single track and mountainous roads well (better than some larger campers/motorhomes and caravans). There was plenty of storage which was great for keeping our things safe and secure whilst driving up and down hills and around windy roads. The pop up roof was very easy to use and the air awning quick and easy to erect/attach. Although we hooked up to electricity for two nights on site, we were not reliant on it, as the VW battery supplied us with lighting, heating, water, cooking facilities and refrigerator which lasted for the remaining three nights/four days. We were warm and comfortable and overall had a great time. We would hire again and definitely recommend to others.
Response from Padraig
Many Thanks Angela, was great to hear everything went well, wonderful customers, hope to see you both again :-)
Great Photos!!
Catherine
We very much enjoyed our trip around Cumbria and Northumberland in Padraigs campervan. It's a lovely van and has all the amenities and additional utensils to make this a really comfortable stay.
Response from Padraig
Many thanks Catherine, lovely to meet you both and glad you had a great time.
Ben
Lush van, well equipped and helpful owner. Would happily hire again!
Response from Padraig
Many Thanks Ben, thanks for the booking.
Nick And Gillian
We had a great experience with Padraig from our location overseas in organisation of our booking to the time we had in the goat mobile on our travels further up north. My 9 year old, wife and I had a great trip made all the better by the welcome we received. Padraig's introduction to the van was efficient and useful and we appreciated his transparency. The van is an awesome bit of kit that is very easy to take under your wing to treat as your own for a few days and it very quickly became our pride and joy. We highly recommend.
Response from Padraig
Many thanks for the booking, lovely people and glad to hear you had a great time. Cheers Paudie
