The handover was easy and quick. The road took us to Lindesfarne Festival for the weekend and we had an amazing time. We spent a lot of it at the van enjoying it's features and comforts. It really is a great van to hire, I cannot stress this enough. We went away as a couple with our dog and can't wait to hire the van again. What makes it special is that it's really comfy and easy to drive. September 2025
Response from Padraig Many thanks Idene :-) great to have you onboard and glad you enjoyed it.

Handover was straightforward. Checked and on the road very quickly. Very smooth. I traveled to North Berwick to catch ‘The Fringe by the Sea’ Unfortunately Storm Floris arrived there too but the van survived as did I. I stayed at the Tantallon site, perfect place. Moved on to Yetholm in the borders for a few days and stayed at Kirkfield , another lovely site, small but perfect for a few days. Handover of the van as smooth as the pick up. All in all a top service was provided by Padraig and his staff. August 2025
Response from Padraig Thanks Terry, great to meet you, glad it all went well. Cheers Paudie

Darren Darren
Padraig was perfect to deal with very accommodating in terms of handover. He ran through all the functions of the van so I was well prepared. I took the van to Glastonbury it drove like a dream , comfortable and no issues. During my stay the van was everything we needed and very comfortable, clean and well stocked. I would definitely book with Padraig again. July 2025
Response from Padraig Many Thanks Darren, pleasure having you onboard and glad you had a great trip.

Martin 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. June 2025
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 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! May 2025
Response from Padraig Many thanks Rebecca, super customer and lovely people, glad you had a great time.
Carly 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. Carly and Olly Webster x May 2025
Response from Padraig Thank you so much Carly, much appreciated, glad you all had a great time. Cheers Paudie
Heather 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. May 2025
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

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. April 2025
Response from Padraig Many Thanks Angela, was great to hear everything went well, wonderful customers, hope to see you both again :-) Great Photos!!
Catherine 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. October 2024
Response from Padraig Many thanks Catherine, lovely to meet you both and glad you had a great time.

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. July 2024
Response from Padraig Many thanks for the booking, lovely people and glad to hear you had a great time. Cheers Paudie
