Having recently returned from a successful camping trip with the hire of a retro camper van, I can honestly say the experience was amazing and that I have now fulfilled a life long ambition to drive and stay in one of these beautiful vans. I cannot thank Rod enough for all that was done to make our journey and time spent in the van memorable.

Brilliant service from beginning to end from the RetroCampervan team and a great experience spending a few days driving Peaches around the New Forest. If you want to step back half a century in motoring history I'd highly recommend this company.

Fantastic trip in Kiwi! Great help and support from the team when we collected including a great instruction in driving the van! Great campervan which we and the kids loved - They are still talking about Kiwi now. Thanks for a great holiday and look forward to another soon!

Thank you for a great week in Peaches. Rod was very helpful with advice before our trip - he really knows his vans and understands their quirks and limitations. Very accommodating with pick up and drop-off times too.

Fantastic week with Mango. Mango became a travelling base for an activity holiday for my two teenage sons and me. She became very much a part of the holiday and in the end we just loved all her idiosyncrasies. She was very reliable but you have to plan ahead to allow for her - whether that is getting somewhere or just braking for a junction :-)
