Blue Highlander – Very Comfortable 2-Berth Motorhome

Annie & Mel have been really nice with us from the booking to the drop off. We had a Lovely trip in their Campervan around Scotland. The area to pick up the van is really easy to rich from Edinburgh center and they can provide sheets and duvets, a helpful service for Backpackers. August 2026

Annie and Mel are very welcoming and responsive. They take the time to explain how the van works and are available throughout the trip for any questions or difficulties. The van is spacious and very comfortable. We had a great stay. We recommend it. August 2026

C était notre 1ere expérience en camping car, et nous avons adoré. Nous ne pensions pas aussi bien dormir, nous avons fait une cure de sommeil dans des paysages magnifiques. Merci. June 2026

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ENGLISH We simply do not have enough words to thank Mel and Annie for this incredible experience. From the very first contact, they were absolutely wonderful. They explained everything with patience, kindness and professionalism. Before our trip, they sent us detailed videos that made everything easy to understand and gave us confidence from day one. When we collected the motorhome, we immediately felt welcomed and cared for. Mel and Annie treated us with such warmth and kindness that they felt more like family than rental hosts. Throughout the entire trip, they were always available whenever we had a question, responding quickly and helpfully. That level of support is invaluable when travelling through remote places such as Orkney and Shetland. The motorhome was spotless and performed perfectly throughout our journey. Everything worked exactly as explained, and the collection and return process was smooth and stress-free. The motorhome was excellent, but what truly made the difference was Mel and Annie. Their kindness, support and genuine care gave us complete confidence throughout the entire trip. Thanks to Mel and Annie, we enjoyed what was truly the trip of a lifetime. We returned home with unforgettable memories, and their support, professionalism and genuine care played a huge part in making that happen. We highly recommend Mel and Annie and their motorhome to anyone planning a trip to Scotland, Orkney or Shetland. If we return in the future, we would not hesitate to rent from them again. Thank you for helping make this adventure so special. June 2026

Un voyage qui vaut le détour! Vraiment magnifique. Nous remercions encore Annie et Mel pour leur gentillesse, leur disponibilité et aussi, leurs conseils avisés concernant les lieux sublimes à aller visiter. Le motorhome est vraiment bien agencé et équipé. Il ne manque rien pour partir durant plusieurs semaines. C'est vraiment le moyen idéal pour faire le tour de l'Ecosse. Le lit est vraiment confortable et permet de récupérer aisément. Tout est vraiment bien pensé à l'intérieur. D'ailleurs, sans utilisation du chauffage en fin de journée ni nuit, la capacité de gaz permet de tenir des semaines. Futurs locataires, vous pouvez vraiment partir l'esprit tranquille !! Thank you so much again, Annie and Mel! We hope we’ll stay in touch! We’d love to have you round if you’re ever in the south-west of France! Stephanie et Mathieu May 2026

What a trip!! A huge thank you to Mel and Annie for their kindness and availability, which made our experience in beautiful Scotland truly unforgettable. Their van is very easy to drive and perfectly equipped with everything you need to fully enjoy a trip for two. Over 7 days, we only needed one refill for water, diesel, and gas, which made the journey even more convenient. I highly recommend this experience — the van has absolutely everything you need. Mel and Annie took the time to explain all the features clearly and were always available if needed. Scotland is an amazing and easy destination for a first campervan experience — definitely something to do at least once! Thanks again! April 2026

We had a brilliant 9-day road trip with Mel & Annie's Warwick Duo, from Edinburgh up through Glen Coe, the Cairngorms, Inverness, the Applecross peninsula and over to the Isle of Skye, and we can't recommend them highly enough. The van itself is lovingly maintained and perfectly set up for Scotland in early April. The dual gas/electric heating kept us cosy through nights near zero, the layout is genuinely thoughtful, and every system, from water and gas to the fridge and electrics, worked exactly as described. From a pull-off in front of the Three Sisters in Glen Coe, to a sunrise camp on the Trotternish moorland near the Quiraing, to a sea-loch view above Plockton, the van took us absolutely everywhere we wanted to go without complaint. You can tell this isn't a fleet rental but their own home-from-home, and it shows in every detail. The handover in Edinburgh was thorough, warm, and unrushed. Mel walked us through every system with real care, so we left with zero question marks and complete confidence on day one. What really sets Mel & Annie apart is how they show up when something unexpected happens. Late in the trip we spotted that a small water pipe had developed a leak from a mounting clip rubbing against the tubing over time. Classic wear-and-tear, nothing dramatic. Mel was on it within minutes: clear-headed, solution-focused, zero drama. We agreed together to return the van a day early so he could fix it properly at home, and he even offered us a bed for the night in the most generous way imaginable. The same care continued well after the trip. When the one-day refund got stuck in administrative limbo, Mel & Annie chased the matter on our behalf for weeks, with patience and grace, and at one point even offered to absorb a £25 international bank fee themselves rather than let us wait any longer. That level of integrity is genuinely rare and tells you everything you need to know about hosting with them. The van came home clean, refuelled with both diesel and LPG, and beautifully equipped, the way we received it. Mel & Annie are lovely people who treat their renters as partners rather than customers. If you're heading to Scotland in a campervan, book with them with complete confidence. We'd do it again in a heartbeat. Thank you both for a trip we'll be talking about for years to come.

Mel and Annie were the best. Friendly, accommodating, and thorough. I'd do this again with them without hesitation. For the way we used it, their campervan was perfect. It is so well thought out - just a great design that lets you be comfortable in minutes at each stop. It has integrated privacy screens in the front windows that fold out in seconds - a considerable advantage to those that have to wrap the windows with an exterior privacy screen when you consider Scottish weather. Dual gas/electric heating and hot water (we went into the highlands in early November and were always comfortable). The heat does innevatibly heat the hot water, so if you're ok with doing the dishes in the morning, you don't have to dedicate gas or electic to hot water heating. The fridge runs off of 3 sources: engine, AC power, and gas and the freezer portion kept a pint of ice cream frozen the entire time. On an 8 day trip, we only ended up using less than 20% of the LP gas tank and only paid 5 pounds to refill it (1 GBP / Liter). Now that I have a feel for this, if I did it again I'd use more gas for heat and would have been less concerned with switching the fridge to use the engine alternator. My favorite part was the stove/oven/broiler. Scottish grocery stores have good options for ready-to-cook soups and entries. So on nights where a pub wasn't an easy option, we'd make a lasagna, soup and warm bread, or a mushroom marscapone pizza. I couldn't have have made these meals any better in my home, save maybe just a slightly slower warm up time. The bed is comfortable. We slept well every night. Little things like a phone holder for navigating and cell phone chargers were already installed. That said, if you're from the States I would always have an alert navigator and maybe avoid driving at night. Most of the Scottish roads we traveled on were very dark, very narrow, and often change drastically in seconds, including going thru areas that are only wide enough for a single vehicle. The van drives well. In 8 days we drove about 1200 miles in the highlands and I think we spent 160 pounds on diesel (@ 1.40/L I think?) My wife and I think this was our best vacation to date after 30 years together, and we credit Mel & Annie's camper and service with a big part of that. November 2025

Nous sommes deux jeunes français et avons loué le van 1 semaine pour notre première expérience en van aménagé. C'était fantastique ! Le van est très fonctionnel, il ne manque de rien, tant dans sa conception que dans le matériel qu'il comporte. Nous avions pris l'option literie et serviettes puisque nous sommes venus en avion. La douche intérieure et l'eau chaude sont bien agréables pour l'automne. Melvin et Annie ont bien pris le temps de nous montrer TOUTES les spécificités du van avant de prendre la route. Ils se sont même rendus disponible pendant le voyage pour d'autres questions. Ce sont des personnes formidables que nous recommandons vivement ! November 2025

We had a fantastic holiday with Mel and Annie’s campervan. The vehicle is very comfortable, fully equipped, and gave us some truly special days. We’re very grateful to have been able to travel with it and would certainly recommend it to anyone looking for a complete motorhome experience. That said, we’d also like to share a little about our check-out experience. The day before check-out, we realised we had lost the waste water cap and made sure to buy and replace it ourselves at a specialist shop. This ended up taking longer than expected — the part was difficult to find and, once we did, the mechanic was further delayed — so although we had initially confirmed we’d be back on time, we later sent a message letting them know we would be about 20 minutes late. Unfortunately, we never received a reply. In the end, we arrived roughly 45 minutes late, but since our earlier message had gone unanswered, and we were still focused on finishing the repair, we didn’t send another update. We completely accept that the delay was our responsibility, but it did feel disappointing that the check-out was rushed and a bit awkward, especially as the camper was being moved while we were still inside packing. This was surprising, since when we first arrived we had been told there was no other booking for another two days and that, if needed, we could call and arrive up to two hours later (their booking calendar also showed there was no reservation scheduled during that time). We also understand that the responsibility is ours and we accept paying the deposit, as we already have. Still, it felt uncomfortable that the handover left no space for dialogue, and we would have appreciated the chance to explain the situation in person, rather than only finding out afterwards that the full £150 deposit had been withheld. That being said, we want to highlight again that the campervan itself is great, we felt very comfortable, and we truly enjoyed our trip. Thank you for the service and for giving us the opportunity to have this experience. August 2025
