SECURITY DEPOSIT
A security deposit of £1,000 is payable 72 hours in advance of your rental. This will returned within 72 hours of the vehicle being returned unless there is vehicle damage that needs a quote for repair. Preferred payment is via Bank Transfer and we will provide bank details during the booking process.
DRIVING LICENCE CHECK
21 days before you rental begins we will require sight of a valid UK driving licence along with a gov.uk check code so we can verify your entitlement to drive. The check code is generated on the government website at https://www.gov.uk/view-driving-licence).
CANCELLATION NOTICE
Should you need to cancel your booking after full payment has been made please let us know at the earliest opportunity as we will try to find a new hirer and refund 70% of your total rental fee. If we are unable to do so we reserve the right to retain both the deposit and any balance paid.
HIRE EXTENSIONS
If you wish to extend your hire then it may be possible but you must contact us as soon as possible so we can confirm availability.
INSURANCE
Daily vehicle insurance must be arranged by the hirer and is not included in the rental price. We suggest using a comparison website, or a website such as Day Insure who we find to be very reasonable. Insurance costs are personal to your circumstances and will vary from individual to individual and we will need to see valid insurance is in place in advance of your rental. We will walk you through the insurance steps during the booking process.
Please note, if you are going to be late in returning the vehicle you will need to make sure that you have valid insurance in place to cover the additional time period. We suggest that insurance is valid to 23:59pm on the day of return just in case, as driving without valid insurance is an offence and could result in prosecution.
EUROPEAN TRAVEL
Unfortunately, European travel is not permitted but we will be looking to include this option in 2026.
IN THE EVENT OF A BREAKDOWN
Our campervan was purchased in June 2025 with only 7 miles on the clock. Whilst we don’t expect that it will be required, we have breakdown cover in place and it is included in the rental price. Full details will be provided when you collect the vehicle.
DOGS
We are very happy to allow well behaved dogs on board. Please refer to the schedule of fees and charges for pricing.
