Hey, I'm Laura!

Sunderland, United Kingdom – Member since June 2024

Hi Campers! I got Bumble in the summer of 2023 & over this time I have had some wonderful adventures all over the UK in my van. Bumble has helped me to discover a love of walking & the great outdoors & she has helped me heal spiritually after a heartbreak.

This year however, my health took a turn for the worst & over the last 7 months, I have spent a lot of time in hospital & at home recovering. At the moment, I cant enjoy my campervan as I would like to & as I have not been able to work properly during this time, it has been so difficult financially without any other support. I’ve made the decision to rent out Bumble for the forseeable future to help with the costs while I am getting myself back on my feet which I know is going to take some time, not just for me to get better physically & mentally but for me to recover financially too.

I hope I am able to make this as affordable for others as I can so that they can enjoy lovely solo, couples, family or mates trips away & enjoy our beautiful country while also being able to help me towards the cost of the owning Bumble so that I can keep her & be able to enjoy using her again when I’m better.

In the future I’d like to explore more of the UK, do the NC500 & Northumberland 250, venture into Ireland & beyond! I want to make friends who are into fell walking who’ll help to show me the way as I regain my strength, build my fitness & find me again.

It says beneath this box that Goboony’s community works based on mutual trust, etc & I don’t think you can get much more honest than the above!

Please feel free to message & ask any questions you like about my camper & if I can help with anything, please let me know.

We hebben een hele fijne vakantie gehad in Schotland. Van Alnwick, via Edingburgh, Abderdeen, Aviemore, Isle of Skye, Ben Nevis, Glasgo en weer terug naar New Castle. De campervan is heel goed bevallen. Je kunt namelijk overal komen. Veel wegen/ plaatsen (waar wij zijn geweest) zijn niet geschikt voor de grotere Motorhomes. Contact met Laura verliep soepel en makkelijk. De wagen trekt veel bekijks, is ook mooi om te zien. August 2025

I had such a fabulous time travelling around Scotland in Bumble and Laura was just lovely. I was on my own with my dog, and the van set up was easy for a solo traveller. All the small touches were really thoughtful and I would recommend to everyone. June 2025

A very easy way to do the NC500. Laura had the van ready to go and had added a few items to make the trip more enjoyable too. The trip was amazing and the handover seamless ! April 2025

We could not have been happier with our 2 week trip to Scotland with Bumble. Laura is an amazing host and she could not have done more to make us feel welcome and relaxed about borrowing her van. Laura’s attention to detail is amazing and Bumble came with everything we could possibly need for our trip; from chopping boards, a table and chairs, matching water bottles to fairy lights. Even extended to providing a welcome basket of snacks and treats to keep us going on the road. We were noobs to van life and Laura took lots of time to explain everything about the van and how to use the various functions and was happy to take a call should we have had any more questions when off on our adventures. Bumble is a lovely van- clean, very well appointed and, importantly, very easy to drive. She has lots of storage space, easy-to-use cooking facilities, blackout curtains, great lighting and a very warm and comfortable bed. We very quickly fell in love with van life. During our trip we had many admiring looks and struck up several conversations with random people who were interested in such a fine camper and we quickly became very proud custodians of Bumble. Thank you Bumble and thank you Laura! October 2024

From the initial emails to Laura to the booking, Laura was responsive, extremely helpful and very prompt. No question was too much trouble. When we collected Bumble, Laura explained everything. Bumble is well fitted out, everything you need for your trip staying either on sites with Electric or without, well cared for and clean. Laura was on hand even when we were away for questions and left an additional contact number just incase. The return was extremely easy and we would not hesitate to book again! Thank you Laura!

We had a wonderful holiday driving Bumble up the west coast of Scotland. The VW Camper is immaculate and has everything you need for a trip away. As it was our first trip in a camper, Laura provided us with plenty of tips and tricks to make our holiday smooth and enjoyable. August 2024

Laura and the van were fantastic from start to finish. Communication was great and the van itself was perfect for the three of us. We had a great time, and will certainly be doing it again. June 2024
