Information

This page contains information you will need to know when hiring from us.

General

Collecting and returning the motor home


A helpful hint: if possible, try not to start your holiday on the same day you collect your vehicle. We need to show you exactly how to get the most out of your motor home, and this will take some time. It is essential that the hirer should be given a thorough introduction to the rental vehicle by our experts before the journey begins.

Since the times for collecting and returning motor homes are carefully planned, please return your motor home on time. A penalty of £30.00 - per hour is payable for time between expiry of the rent agreement and the return of your vehicle (maximum penalty is daily rental charge). Should the late return of the vehicle make us liable for extra costs (e.g. compensation of the next hirer), we reserve the right to pass on these costs to you.

Please return your vehicle on time.

Bed linen/ kitchen equipment Please bring your own bed linen, blankets, pillows, towels. and equipment. We can for a small charge of £30.00 supply bedding and towels.( bedding only included with Bessacarr) Your motor home will include all crockery and other kitchen equipment.
