Want to hire a VW Campervan for your holiday? Be confident you are in a clean, safe environment. West Country VW Camper Hire acts against Coronavirus.

When you book your VW Campervan for your holiday, we want you to be confident that you are in a clean and safe environment.

We all need a break right now and when it is safe and we are allowed to go camping, we know you will want assurance that your holiday accommodation is safe for your whole family.


We all want to keep away from this awful virus and everyone at our camper hire company are working hard to ensure you have a worry-free break.

Our hire campervans have just been fitted with brand new interior but we will still be thoroughly cleansing EVERY touchable surface with antiviral solution and ALL equipment will be put through a dish washer before you collect your camper!

The Government have set out numerous steps for us to all ‘get back to some kind of normal’ and here is the latest information set out in their guidelines.

Coronavirus (COVID-19): guidance

Find guidance about coronavirus (COVID-19) for health professionals and other organisations.

The advice for anyone in any setting is to follow these main guidelines.

  1. The most common symptoms of coronavirus (COVID-19) are recent onset of a new continuous cough or high temperature or a loss of, or change in, normal sense of taste or smell (anosmia). If you have these symptoms, however mild, stay at home and do not leave your house for at least 7 days from when your symptoms started (if you live alone), or 14 days (if you live with someone who has symptoms). You do not need to call NHS 111 to go into self-isolation. If your symptoms worsen during home isolation or are no better after 7 days, contact NHS 111 online. If you have no internet access, you should call NHS 111. For a medical emergency dial 999.
  2. Wash your hands more often than usual, for 20 seconds using soap and hot water, particularly after coughing, sneezing and blowing your nose, or after being in public areas where other people are doing so. Use hand sanitiser if that’s all you have access to.
  3. To reduce the spread of germs when you cough or sneeze, cover your mouth and nose with a tissue, or your sleeve (not your hands) if you don’t have a tissue, and throw the tissue in a bin immediately. Then wash your hands or use a hand sanitising gel.
  4. Clean and disinfect regularly touched objects and surfaces using your regular cleaning products to reduce the risk of passing the infection on to other people.

Last updated 18 May 2020

We are acting on all of these in our every day lives but at West Country VW Camper Hire, we are taking point 4. above to the next level by using antiviral solutions, not only regular cleaning products.

You will also be provided with and asked to wear a mask, use hand sanitiser, and practice social distancing when collecting and dropping off your campervan.


We really look forward to helping you enjoy your holiday this year, when is it safe of course, and wish you a very SAFE trip!

We had a wonderful holiday in Fred. We travelled all around Wales, myself, my husband and our dog. Fred was comfortable, warm and well equipped. We wanted for nothing except maybe some sunshine. The whole experience was made easy and exciting with the help and assistance of Lucy and Chris. This was our first time in a campervan but we felt well prepared after watching the YouTube videos Lucy sent us and the patient explanations and demonstrations from both Lucy and Chris. We will be back! Thank you so much West Country Camper Hire. Ann and Gary

My wife and I hired Arthur for a Long weekend as a try before we buy. Lucy and Chris were absolutely brilliant throughout. The information about how to use everything was detailed but not overwhelming. The use of videos ( all backed up with a comprehensive hand book in the van) made Getting “ acquainted “ before the hire started much simpler. There was nothing more we could have asked for, they had thought of everything. When we returned Arthur the hand over was again very friendly and efficient and we the security deposit was back in our account very promptly. Would throughly recommend Lucy & Chris ( and Arthur)without hesitation

We had a great time away in the van which we hired from West Country VW Campervans.All the equipment you would need was included.Lucy was brilliant in showing us how to safely set up the bed and awning and turning on the gas etc.Fred II was great to drive and easy to set up once we arrived at our destination and we knew Lucy and Chris were only a phone call away if we had any problems.A perfect way to try out a campervan before buying – we are hooked.Thanks to Lucy and Chris for the use of Fred. Highly recommended.

We had a fabulous trip. The camper was beautifully presented and well kitted out. The booking and return process was seamless and we were kept informed throughout the process. Jo is a real pleasure to deal with and I would strongly recommend their service to anybody that wants to dip their toe into the campervan world.

Spent a wonderful weekend in 'Fred II' with my daughter staying at the Badminton Horse Trials campsite. We were also newbies to the delights of VW campers and 'Fred' (along with Jo and Roger) provided the perfect initiation. A beautifully presented and equipped van which surpassed our expectations for comfort and facilities. 'Fred' was much admired! Special thanks to Jo and Roger for their excellent and patient briefing and support manual incase you forgot anything!

This was my first experience of holidaying in a Campervan and Jo & Roger were most helpful in responding to my questions prior to my holiday. I hired "Arthur" for 10 days in mid Sept 2021 and I was extremely lucky with some late summer weather. I stayed at 3 separate campsites and really enjoyed the freedom that this type of holiday offers."Arthur" was fully kitted out with just about everything you could possibly need for a holiday on the road, including an integrated warm air heater. Even a padded mattress topper was provided which made the bed really comfortable.Based on my experience, I would strongly recommend you take the time to view all the YouTube videos Roger & Jo have created - they clearly demonstrate how to set-up the campervan and they will reinforce the practical demonstration you are given when you collect the campervan. I would also suggest taking a small pop-up tent to use for storing bulky items / extra baggage whilst staying on your campsite. This will allow you to have much easier access to the various storage compartments within the campervan. I hope you enjoy your holiday as much as I did.

This was our first campervan holiday experience and, thanks to Jo and Roger (and Fred), we had an amazing time! Fred was really the star of the show. He is stylish & smart.Fred contained everything we needed for a comfortable holiday and Jo & Roger couldn't have been more helpful with making sure that we were happy with everything before we set off. We were really impressed with the solar power, as we were off grid for 4 days, and everything worked well.I would really recommend this to newbies like us!
