We had a great time exploring Sussex with Susie (the Motorhome). She was easy and fun to drive and as first timers, we found the motor home comfortable, warm with plenty of space for myself, two sons and two dogs. Stefan, the owner, was an excellent lender and responded quickly with any queries or difficulties we had. I think it would have been useful to have had a brief written guide with instructive photos to accompany the van, as I felt I kept having to bother Stefan with queries about the electric panel, water pump, gas supply etc. Stefan went through everything when we collected the motor home but there was a lot to remember for newbies. (I should have made notes!) Unfortunately, we couldn’t get the water pump working properly or the microwave. All the equipment you need is provided saucepans, frying pan, cutlery, mugs, plates, bowls and kettle. Just remember to take a cork screw/bottle opener and tin opener. A small dustpan and brush would have been useful too to keep the floor tidy as the push along hoover provided didn’t really do very much. I would highly recommend hiring the motorhome from Stefan and I am sure that we will be hiring Susie out for another adventure in the near future. February 2024
This was my first time renting a motorhome. I had a brilliant weekend away in 'Susie' one of Stefans Motorhomes. Stefan is very friendly and welcoming. The motorhome came equipped with everything i needed for the weekend. Plates, cutlery, microwave, oven, pans I won't list everything! All you'll need is your bedding and clothes! 'Susie' was easy to drive and very comfortable to stay in. I would definitely recommend renting from Stefan if you're looking to rent a motorhome. September 2023
We were complete novices but Stefan was really helpful and explained things clearly to us. We had a fantastic time touring up to Scotland and back with our 2 labs and made many happy memories. The pick up and drop process was easy and Stefan was flexible with times etc. All round a great experience that we would happily do again. September 2023
We hired Stefan’s motor home for a long weekend for our trip and we were very impressed with the communication with Stefan, he was also generous with the pick up and drop off times. This no frills vehicle is great for kids/teenagers and has all the facilities you need, beds, table, shower, toilet, oven, grill, fridge, freezer, microwave, kitchen sink, pots/pans, plates etc. There is also storage for clothes. It drives really well, good speed and was reliable too. As long as you have electric hookup and access to water, it makes camping easy. It was perfect for our holiday in the UK. I would highly recommend Stefan’s motor home to anyone. June 2023
Having wanted to purchase a motorhome of our own, we thought it wise to at least hire a van in the first instance to see how we got on with it. Stefan was great from the start, and very accommodating with pick up and drop off times although he did say this was largely due to it being off peak. The van supplied was perfect as it wasn't brand new and more in keeping with our budget. Drove really well considering its age and mileage. We loved it so much we have gone out and purchased a motorhome of our own similar in age to this one, so won't unfortunately be hiring from Stefan again however we would happily recommend Stefan to friends and family. June 2023
It was our first time camping and Susie lived up to expectations. She got us to the Lake District in comfort. We had a wonderful time and Stefan was always on hand if we needed him. Already looking forward to the next time June 2022
Once again, another fabulous service and rental from Stefan. Couldn’t fault it! Brilliant motorhome for myself, my wife and our two year old to go away in! Stefan very accommodating with collection & return times! Would definitely recommend Renting any of Stefan’s great range of motorhomes. Will be renting again soon I’m sure! March 2022
Couldn’t have asked for more! Firstly Stefan was very accommodating with the collection/ drop off times and happily worked it around my work. He’s a lovely guy who explains each and every part of the workings of a motorhome so if your a first timer, don’t you worry! The van itself is perfect for those getaways! Has everything you need! Comes with chairs and tables for the outside and is very nice to drive! Will definitely be booking again! Thanks. October 2021
We had a fantastic adventure over 10 days touring Scotland driving over 1600 trouble free miles in this great motorhome. Very easy and comfortable too drive had no trouble climbing the big Scottish hills and I found it too be good on fuel . Susie was equipped with everything we needed all we added was bedding . This was our first but definitely not our last motorhome holiday . Stefan was great to deal with quickly answering any questions we had . Very highly recommend this motorhome. August 2021
We had a great time in The motor home, we were a bit worried about driving it because of the size but it was pretty easy and simple ( we even drove small lanes and did lot have any issues) Loved the holiday and recommend to anyone August 2021
I hired a campervan this year for 6 days over the Easter break for a location finding job visiting waterways in UK. My first booking made over a month previously, was cancelled by the owner a few days before departure claiming bodywork issues. Gaboony made lots of apologies and said they would discuss the reasons with the owner. Luckily I was able to book an alternative camper in time for the trip. This van was okay but the hot water did not work nor the speakers for the cd/radio. It appeared to use a lot of diesel too £300 from London to Scotland via Liverpool and Cumbria. In Scotland I discovered why - a diesel leak from the engine. I then had to deal with recovery services over 36 hours, sleep in a service station car park. Reduce the trip by two days and drive back from Scotland to south of England in one day. The owner Stefan failed to offer a refund, claimed the engine was not leaking before I hired it - implying my fault- refunded my deposit “despite the diesel tank not being full” when RAC delivered the van separately. I have not been issued a refund nor compensation. While Gaboony apologised and said they will discuss it with the owner I still have not heard from them in over a week. They are an advertising platform. They will not assist you when things go wrong. The issue is you pay the money upfront and there is no way of reversing that payment if Gaboony don’t assist.

Response from Stefan I have to apologies again for the inconvenience caused by the breakdown. We maintain our motorhomes to the highest standards to ensure a hassle free trip, but unfortunately on rare occasions something mechanical does break while the vehicle is out. Rebecca collected the vehicle on the Friday and spent 5 days touring Liverpool, the Lake District and the Highlands of Scotland, travelling 853 miles in total. Shortly after heading off from Scotland for her final nights stop in London, it appears that the fuel filter housing cracked, fuel was escaping, finding its way onto the exhaust and smoking. As it was unsafe to drive the vehicle and a roadside repair was not possible, she spent her final night in a service station in Scotland, rather than her intended stopover in London. The following morning she was provided with a courtesy vehicle and made her way back to our compound just south of London saying she “was tired from the long drive and did not wish to discuss money”, so no discussions regarding refunds where made. The following morning we received a demand for a refund of £500 on a booking of £672 to account for the £300 worth of fuel she’d spent and the one night she had lost. When asked for receipts to back up her claim, she eventually produced receipts to the value of £194.48, meaning she’d used a total of £240 (as there was still half a tank left), not the £300 she’d stated. Based upon the type of driving, the mileage covered, the type, weight and aerodynamics of the vehicle, £240 worth of fuel seems fair. We have however made allowance for the inconvenience and provided a refund that far exceeds the lost day travelling, allowance for fuel lost due to the leak, plus the offer of additional vouchers. We strive to provide the best vehicles at affordable prices to ensure our customers enjoy their trips … the list of 5 star reviews appears to shows we succeed in this. It therefore saddens me when we receive a bad review while waiting for the customer to reply to us.
Yes we really enjoyed our week in stefans motorhome was very nice to drive and very clean all sorted by goboony great November 2020
not our normal choice for a holiday,must say it was certainly different,the campsites we stayed were spotless,and the motor home we rented from stefan performed well,the transaction with goboony and stefan was straight forward and easy,if we ever decide to hire a motor home again this is the roote we would take,thank you bob September 2020
We had a great week with Susie. So much so, my son wants to repeat the experience next year! There's everything you need and Susie has been lovingly cared for. Stefan was so easy and pleasant to deal with. Would certainly recommend to anyone September 2020
The motorhome did meet my expectations, it is very comfortable and we had a great time. I will recommend it. Best Regards, Rodrigo Guerrero July 2020
