Fleet

Their fleet is composed of VW campervans that are perfect for up to 4 people.

These compact vehicles feature the right size so you can take them anywhere. It's like driving a modern car with all cozy facilities, including two sleeping areas, a kitchen, and a dining area. You can also add a range of extras like beddings, child seats, bike rack, portable toilet, toilet & tailgate tents, and more.

Vehicles

VW California T6 Ocean

The VW California T6 Ocean is a classic camper with all family essentials, including a space to relax, to dine, and to sleep! It may appear too simple outside but the inside is very impressive. It provides enough space for a family of 4. It has a cruise control, optimized engined, hill assist, and such that make your trip more efficient and easy as possible.

VW California T6.1 Ocean

If you want an upgraded version of the first campervan, there's the VW California T6.1 Ocean, a more sophisticated and still reliable unit for the entire family. This campervan also provides two sleeping areas so it can accommodate up to 4 people. The electronically-operated pop-up roof easily raises with just a push of a button. So, you have the option to either snuggle down on the roof bed or on the fold-out bed. The fully-fitted kitchen has everything you need, from cooking utensils to storage compartments and more!

VW California 6.1 Coast

Another impressive VW campervan on offer is the VW California 6.1 Coast that is the same with the VW California T6.1 Ocean in terms of vehicle size and dimensions. This stylish yet practical vehicle comes with a manually operated pop up roof that provides a double bed. There's another double bed option from the foldout bed below. The front swivel seats easily spin so all 4 can dine in together. 

Insurance

The insurance excess for Kamper Hire's campervans is £1000, though this can be reduced to £200 if you avail of the CDW and pay an additional of £12.50 per day. Do take note, however, that the CDW does not include coverage for the roof, windows, undercarriage, tyre, and such. 

Reputation 

Kamper Hire is a reputable campervan hire based in Bishop's Waltham, Southampton. Their fleet of modern VW campervans is suitable for up to 4 persons, plus their furry friend. These campervans are relatively new, hence excellent in terms of driving conditions with lesser maintenance issues. And, you can rent their units for both short and long road trips. Though they have more positive reviews, they also have some feedback about unattended calls and emails. 

Summary
