About Getaway Campers
Getaway Campers is a low-cost campervan hire business with a depot in Thamesmead, London. This local company focuses on budget-conscious travellers who want to take a break from their busy lives. Their campervan hire is made cheaper because it already comes with unlimited mileage and other camping needs. Plus, you can take the camper anywhere in the UK, as well as in Ireland or Europe―as long as you complete all requirements.
Fleet
Getaway campervans are compact units that are easy to drive on the roads. Because of its size, it can fit in standard car parking spaces. Their Toyota campers are automatic while the VW Transporters are manual. All these vehicles can seat 4 but can only sleep up to 2 persons inside via the fold-out double bed. The remaining passengers can opt to hire a tent extension or camper style tent. Bedding is not provided but you can rent these for a fee.
Vehicles
Toyota Regius
The Toyota Regius is tagged as an entry-level camper. This basic, automatic camper drives like a car but with some extra camping features such as fold-out bed, storage spaces, adjustable table, and kitchen stuff.
Toyota Alphard
Unto the next level, there's the automatic Toyota Alphard, which is a mid-range camper for families of 2 to 4 persons. In comparison to the other Toyota model, this one is slightly longer and bigger. The interior height is also a bit more spacious. So, if you're looking for a faintly upgraded unit, this one is a good choice.
Volkswagon Transporter
For a better and brighter campervan hire, you may want to consider renting out the Volkswagen Transporter. This is the most spacious campervan on offer. It has 5 seatbelts but it only sleeps 2 people inside. If you're with the entire fam, you can avail of the optional tent extension that accommodates 2 more persons. Unlike the two Toyota models, this one is a manual vehicle.
Insurance
The insurance excess amounts to £500.00 but can be reduced if you avail of the reduction options. Option A at £6.00 per day for an excess of £250.00 or Option B at £18.00 per day for an excess of £0. On the other hand, the amount of security deposit depends on the rental duration and age of drivers.
Reputation
Focusing on low cost rental, Getaway Campers is a friendly bunch that gives few campervan options. These units are designed for travellers who wouldn't mind a simple yet meaningful holiday on the road. Their limited fleet, however, is just enticing for a particular number of travellers onboard, from independent backpackers to couples and families up to 4. They only have one depot and couldn't provide you with a free parking space for your personal car. But the convenient location is great to deal with when picking up and dropping off the camper. Certain boohoo, unfortunately, is the rather older units on the fleet with relatively standard facilities.
Summary
For an economical way to travel around the country and beyond, Getaway Campers provides a rental range good for independent travellers, budget-conscious couples, and frugal families up to 4.
