Trip 1
Needed a Campervan for a trip to a running event up North. Craig managed to sort us out with “Lucille” for the trip at a competitive price. For an older camper it still runs great and has nice modern fit out inside. It was easy to drive and manoeuvre. Seats were comfy as well. Good use of spaces inside and includes all the equipment you would expect. Cooker and sink very easy to use. Very professional check in / check out experience by Craig and his team. Great job and look forward to getting booked up again in the future 👍

Trip 2
This was our second hire after our great experience with Lucille earlier this year. This time we booked “Mork” to accommodate our two young kids. Craig as usual offers a very professional service and cannot be more helpful answering any queries. He provided a fantastic on boarding YouTube video which is a great reference guide or anything that you need reminded of when out on the road. Shout out to Jim as well who made the checkout process go smoothly as well.

We decided to go where the weather was better, which took us up to Glen Nevis, Glenmore before settling in Lossiemouth for few days. At this time of year (October) availability was good in most campsites which gave us many different options for the trip.

The van has all the essentials (and more) and was really easy to drive and manoeuvre. The rear parking sensors definitely helped. Craig includes all the travel essentials, so you won’t need to take much other than your food, clothes etc.

We will definitely be booking with Craig and the team again next year!

If you're looking to deal with an honest, knowledgeable, and passionate individual when it comes to VW campers, Craig is your go-to.

What sets his fleet apart is that the campers are unbranded, giving you a unique and authentic experience compared to other rentals in the Highlands. This subtle difference lets you truly connect with your chosen van and fully immerse yourself in the camper lifestyle.

The vans are meticulously maintained, both mechanically and in cleanliness. Upon delivery, we were impressed with the attention to detail and the inclusion of every possible extra. All you need to do is pack your bag and hit the road—Craig has everything else covered.

What a magical trip!
Craig made it perfect & easy from start to finish.
‘Mork’ took me on an adventure, as I went on a solo trip up to Glencoe and Arisaig.
It was super comfy, a breeze to drive & well kitted out.
I can’t wait to book again & go on another adventure very soon.
Would 100% recommend booking with Freedom Campervans - as they will make your trip one to remember.

The camper van was in really good condition, beautiful and well maintained. With all the details you need for your trip. Craig is very kind, honest and very funny and smart guy. He was very patient with us who are inexperienced Spanish tourists. He recommended us the best, beautiful and save routes and also recommendations about where to eat and the most beautiful landscapes. We are going to repeat with no doubt and I highly recommend you Freedom Caravans. Thank you so much for everything Craig! Ellie and Elena (the master of the road)

Craig is professional, honest and all round lovely guy! We hired Mindy for a week of island hopping round the inner Hebrides and we couldn’t have asked for more. We had everything we needed, the van was in perfect condition and was a dream to drive. Craig was available throughout the whole trip if we had any questions too. We would absolutely hire a Freedom Camper again and will be recommending to our friends too.

Loved our time taking Craig’s van Mindy through Scotland. Super comfortable, easy to drive and well equipped for a few days on the road. Craig was really helpful and offered excellent recommendations of where to go and places to stop. Will definitely go again - so much more to explore

We hired Mindy for four days and ended up wild camping for the duration. Craig was really easy to communicate with and we felt that he was present for any support whenever we needed. The instructions for how to work with the van were clear and very much needed if you've not used a van like this before. We really go into the swing of it by day 2 and wished we had longer to explore Scotland. Mindy was cosy and some precious memories were made.

Craig also gave us lots of great tips for what to see and do. When it came to the end he was also kind enough to go out of his way to drop us at the station when we realised we were running super late. Thanks for a smooth trip!

We had the chance to experience a magnificent trip of around ten days through the grandiose landscapes of the Scottish Highlands. Life in a van allowed us to live this timeless experience with a feeling of total freedom in harmony with nature. Craig was fantastic in providing us with valuable information about the operation and contents of the van in advance, allowing us to set off with confidence and enjoy our trip from the start. We didn't want for anything and really appreciated the autonomy and comfort of the van. Craig was kind, always available and above all very enthusiastic about the joy of our emotions in discovering this rich and intoxicating country. So we send a huge thank you to Craig for allowing us to have this exceptional experience, and can only invite people to hit the road.

Ha estat una experiència fantàstica! En Craig ha estat pendent de tots els nostres dubtes i preguntes en tot moment. Si esteu pensant en llogar una camper per visitar Escòcia, no ho dubteu, aquesta és la millor opció. Tot un encert. Gràcies Craig!

Tom & Ludovic

Bonjour, messieurs. Je vous remercie encore une fois d'avoir loué mon camping-car. Ce fut un plaisir de vous rencontrer tous les deux. Puis-je vous demander une petite faveur ? Si vous avez trouvé le camping-car confortable et apprécié l'aide que je vous ai apportée, pourriez-vous laisser un commentaire ? En tant que petite entreprise, ces commentaires sont essentiels pour maintenir mon activité en vie. Si vous pouviez rédiger votre commentaire en français, je vous en serais reconnaissant. J'adore rencontrer des clients français ; ils sont toujours respectueux et je veux en encourager d'autres à me rendre visite. N'oubliez pas de venir me voir si vous revenez en Écosse. Tous mes vœux, Craig, Freedom Campervans.

Meine Frau, Sohn und ich verbrachten einige unvergessliche Tage in den Highlands von Schottland, die wir in einem VW Wohnwagen von Craig bereisten. Alles war perfekt und ging reibungslos: die Buchung über seine Internetseite, die Übergabe des Fahrzeuges mit Einweisung, die  Fahrt selbst, die Ausstattung sowie Rückgabe.  Wir erlebten 4 Jahreszeiten während eines Tages!  Was die Kälte betrifft, so hatten wir keine Probleme, denn die Heizung sprang gleich an.

 Hervorheben möchten wir besonders die sehr sympathische und personalisierte Einweisung: nach der Buchung erhielten wir von Craig ein kurzes Video, in dem er den Wohnwagen vorstellte. Bei der Übergabe hatten wir somit ein gewisses Vorwissen und konnten seiner Anleitung schnell folgen und vorherige Fragen gleich abklären. Ich mochte das sehr!  Ebenfalls mochten wir die Rückfrage von Craig nach der ersten Nacht wie wir mit allem zurechtgekommen sind sowie seine Zusicherung, dass wir ihn jederzeit kontaktieren konnten. 

 Danke Craig. Wir werden erneut buchen.

Freedom Campervans were absolutely wonderful and I would highly recommend them. I was gifted a voucher for my birthday and used it to take my friend and her wee boy to the East Neuk of Fife for a weekend in March 2024. Craig and Jim were so helpful, right from the moment we first got in touch. It was easy to book dates, Craig sent over really informative videos that helped me feel prepared ahead of time, and he was always at the other end of the phone if I had any questions. I was a little nervous because this would be my first time driving a campervan, but they made it so simple and really put me at ease. The van was gorgeous, it drives better than my own car, and now I'm completely hooked and will be holidaying in campervans for the foreseeable. I can't wait to venture further afield and do some more remote camping. If you were considering a campervan company but felt unsure in any way, I can assure you, this is the caring company to go with.

We had an unforgettable 10 days in Scotland. With the van we were able to explore the most beautiful corners of Scotland and always had our home with us. The van was very well equipped and we had great pleasure driving it. Craig was always available and took wonderful care of us. Many many many thanks. We recommend freedom campervans 100%!

Craig is the ultimate host. Very easy to contact. Man does not sleep. It gives you a nice informative induction pack to know everything and feel comfortable before you get there. Mork is an excellent-looking van. LotsClean of features. Clean and tidy. He advised us on our route, and it was excellent. Very happy with the experience and trip overall. Already talking to Craig about the next booking!

Lukas & friends

We had a fantastic five-day trip with the van. Everything was in perfect condition: the small kitchen, the nice and comfortable beds and enough storage space easily accessible.
Booking and insurance went smoothly and the additional travel information, with tips on where to stay, helped us a lot.
Would definitely do it again.

Nous avons loué un van à Craig début juillet cette année, c’était une grande première pour nous et tous s’est passé à merveille. Craig nous a accompagné dès le départ par message whats app, nous apportant toutes les informations nécessaires à un séjour réussi. Même pendant le séjour avec de super conseil. Nous avons eu de très bons échanges également par e-mail. Craig nous a mis en confiance rapidement. J’avais quelques réticences sur le paiement de la caution par virement en avance j’ai fait confiance et j’ai eu raison, aucune raison de douter. Tout est carré et honnêteté . Le voyage en lui même une vraie aventure, un van confort 4 étoiles, avec tout ce qu’il faut pour se sentir bien. Le véhicule est maniable, très sûr et nous avons eu un pincement au cœur de le quitter. Je recommande fortement Craig et sa flotte de van pour votre aventure en Ecosse. Si nous revenons nous referons appel aux services de Craig les yeux fermés.

I rented a campervan from Craig for a month and I had the best time! Communication with Craig was excellent from the start, very friendly, helpful and open-minded about my plans. And throughout the trip, he was only one text message away. If I needed his help, just had a question or needed advice, he was more than happy to help out. To be honest, I had a tiny accident and damaged the side wing mirror. And even though it was a bank holiday weekend Craig went above and beyond to get it fixed as fast as possible to get me on the road again. And in this situation as well, Craig’s response and help were amazing.

It was my second time coming to Scotland, but my first time ever in a campervan. I ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!! It was such an amazing experience all together. The freedom of driving around and finding a good place to spend the night somewhere and just waking up in the most beautiful and remote places, yet still having the comforts of home, is absolutely wonderful. I and the campervan went to Loch Lomond, Glencoe,  Glenfinnan, Isle of Mull, Skye, South Uist, North Uist, Harris and Lewis together. I also finished the NC500, went to Loch Ness and did a little bit of Cairngorms National Park. With the campervan, I covered a lot of miles and I really do believe I got to see the best parts of Scotland and experience the beauty of this country in the best way possible. I definitely want to visit Scotland again and would not want to do it any other way. And yes, after having a home on wheels for 31 days I cried a little when it was time to give back the keys.

As first time campervaners Craig talked us through it all, the van had everything and more! so comfortable and what a week we had! We will most definitely be back. Thankyou 😀

We hired a van from Craig for a trip to the Isle of Arran. We were fully informed before we set off, and he was always on hand if we had any questions. The van was perfect, and we’ll definitely be doing it again.

Nous avons passé d'excellentes vacances a bord du Van de Craig ! Deux semaines à sillonner les immensités du nord ecossais. Le Van est top ! Tres confortable, une vraie petite maison sur roues. Et Craig a été super. Plein de bons conseils pour passer un sejour inoubliable

Thierry & family

Wonderful... Le lieu de récupération du véhicule est un peu à l'écart des grands axes de circulation, tout en étant facilement accessible depuis le centre... Il permet de quitter rapidement Glasgow et de rejoindre facilement les axes des destinations principales... Les vérifications d'usage furent rapides et efficaces ; le Campervan VW étant dans un état impeccable. Craig est très réactif et se tient à votre disposition durant l'ensemble du voyage, pour assistance et conseils...

Tifany & Jeremy

Nous avons passé un super séjour avec le van de Craig ! Il est de bonne taille pour passer partout et offre un bon confort pour quelques jours. Nous avons pu explorer l'Ecosse confortablement. Nous avons dormi une nuit sur deux en camping, pour profiter des douches et recharger le van. Le camping sauvage en Écosse est autorisé et facile, un vrai bonheur ! Craig a été très flexible sur les horaires pour récupérer le van et le rendre. Il a aussi été très serviable (il est venu nous chercher et nous a posé à la station de bus au retour, un vrai gain de temps et d'énergie !! Merci encore !). Il nous a aussi donné plein de super conseils avant le départ et a été très disponible dès que nous avions besoin pendant le voyage. Je recommande les yeux fermés la location de ce van pour quelques jours (max 6 jours je pense).

Amazing campervan trip in Scotland

A great recommendation from Friends, we had the best trip around the west coast of Scotland all thanks to Craig & his camper!

Before we picked up the campervan Craig had sent us a video of inside the camper and how it all works, Super helpful for us first timers.
When we collected the camper, Craig ran through everything again and made sure he was happy we would treat the camper like our own and take good care of it! We were so excited for our adventure to begin!

The Camper itself is clean Comfortable & practical, We made use of everything it had we found it was really well equipped, the pop up bed on the roof was amazing for hearing the owls and seeing the stars - a thin mattress so take padding if you plan on sleeping up there!

Craig suggested setting what’s app group for the trip which was really good, he suggested some amazing routes to take & places to see to help us get the most out of.

Off we went on the trip of a lifetime around the Scottish Highlands. We explored lots of beautiful places and what’s fantastic about this sort of trip is the flexibility you have with where you are on any given day. We spent half our nights on the roadside and few nights on campsites.

The places we explored -
Glencoe - stunning, three sisters walk is tough but worth the views of glencoe and Ben Nevis
Glenfinnan viaduct - great views of the Loch, the viaduct bridge from Harry Potter movie worth a trip to
Oban - fantastic distillery, great seafood and a good place to get some whisky
Inveraray - pretty castle and grounds, lovely town for souvenirs, cake and ice cream
The Coylet Inn - amazing pub on the Loch, stayed in the car park for one night,super friendly, lovely food & scenery
Dunure beach and castle - amazing views of Arran and we got a lovely sunset
Culzean Castle - great for a day visit, lovely gardens and a coastal beach walk
Galloway forest, Glen Trool - dark sky park amazing for star gazing. Lovely place for walks lots to choose from ( we did a 15 mile hike around the loch which was well worth it)
a fantastic trip and we couldn’t speak more highly of craig & the campervan
Thank you
Hope to be back again one day

A very nice experience on this van. Craig was very present and accompanied us throughout our trip. Thanks to him we have a great week. The van was very well equipped with everything we needed. I recommend!!!

Ingrid & Karel

“First visit to Scotland, certainly not the last!”

An overall great experience. Even though this was our first-time vacation with a campervan, Craig helped us through the whole experience and made us feel at home in his van from day one. Everything needed for a great week on the road is provided, and the van is the perfect size to still explore remote and small streets that a bigger car would have trouble navigating.
We highly recommend Craig and his freedom campervans to anyone who wants to be free to go wherever they please to explore Scotland.

“Excellent service and support throughout”

Craig

From the initial inquiry through to handing the van back the experience with Craig was excellent! The attention to detail in the documents provided when my booking was made to a video walk-through and explanation put me at ease knowing that I could easily refer to them if I had a query or wanted to double-check something. Craig also made himself available for calls or messages which added to my feeling completely reassured that although I was on my own in the van I would be able to get some assistance should I need it.

Although it rained most days on my trip to Wales the van was always warm and comfortable plus there is plenty of room for all the kit I had. The bonus of using the rear door as a shield meant it was easy to change out of wet and muddy gear without the worry of messing up the van.

From start to end the experience Craig gives is really personal and the van itself is a great way to travel and have the flexibility to visit as many places as well as adjust plans along the way.

I'd highly recommend a campervan trip and especially using Freedom Campervans.

Alexis & Graeme

“Having never hired a campervan before, Craig from Freedom Campervans made sure that we had everything we needed to ensure an epic adventure around the southwest coast of Scotland. The campervan (lovingly called Mindy) was so well-equipped and surprisingly comfortable for the two of us over 5 days. We are already planning our next trip and will definitely be using Freedom Campervans again!”

Ash & Neil

“Craig was so helpful and helped us every step of the way. The campervan is perfect with everything you need to travel in comfort while enjoying the amazing scenery. So much fun to explore in such a quality campervan, couldn’t recommend it highly enough! Ideal for couples for an amazing adventure. Best holiday ever.”

Damian & Elanor

Absolute stunning trip. Can't recommend Craig and Freedom Campervans enough. Seamless pick up/drop off. Brilliant campervan and Craig was on the phone / text to assist with any questions/recommendations along the way. Went all the way up to Lewis and Harris through Ullapool, Torridon, and Glencoe. We've been going to Scotland for about 10 years and this is definitely the best way to explore it. Made some new friends and fantastic family memories along the way.

Beth & Dan

“My boyfriend and I rented Mork for 9 days to see Loch Lomond, Glen Coe, the Isle of Skye and the NC500. We were complete newbies to the van life but from the day we booked, Craig was super friendly and more than happy to help. No question was too silly and we were able to contact Craig throughout the whole trip. He also provided excellent tips of where to go (turns out John o'Groats really is just a post).
Mork was the perfect size for a first-timeon van driver whilst also being able to live inside comfortably. Craig provided everything we could've needed, including bedding, a table and chairs for outside and a starter pack of cleaning products, tea and coffee (the smoothest coffee we've ever made!) We definitely want to hire from Freedom Campervans again, maybe for a trip to Harris. Thanks for everything mission control, over :)”

“I booked a campervan from Craig at Freedom Campervans as a wee surprise for my husband's 40th. It was THE best thing I could have done. I followed Craig's advice from the word go, and all I can say is THANK GOD he was there. I was a complete amateur but Craig put me at ease with his knowledge and friendliness. He was so patient, and no question was too silly to ask. We booked for the three of us (yes, that includes a boisterous 7-year-old) and we followed Craig's advice and headed to Portavadie. We had the time of our lives and honestly would change nothing about our experience and we fully attribute this to Craig. We cannot thank him enough and will most certainly book again!”

Nicola, David Alfie & Amelia

“An amazing experience made better with the 1st class support and recommendations from Craig. The van itself was outstanding with everything you could possibly need and more. We were blown away by how comfortable it was and how easy it was to drive and operate. Craig is very passionate about his vans and goes out of his way to make sure that you have the best trip. The service we received from him is one we won't forget and can’t wait to arrange another trip. If anyone is just thinking of taking a campervan holiday, just do it, I promise you won't regret it and I can't recommend Freedom Campervans enough.
Special memories were made this month for us and our kids! Thank you, Craig.
Oh, and that ridge monkey is the best little piece of equipment we've come across ever! Makes the best toasties and omelettes!!”

“Just back from a wonderful trip in one of Craig’s excellent vans was a tremendous experience that we didn’t want to end couldn’t fault the van or Craig in anyway 1st class from start to finish also very flexible with pick up and return of the camper

Hannah & Theo

“Craig was fantastic! He is extremely reasonable and flexible and cares a lot that you have a great trip.

We rented Mork for 8 nights to explore Skye and Harris, with stops at Glencoe and Barra. It was a wonderful way to travel and the van itself was well equipped with everything we needed.

Highly recommend it to anyone considering a Campervan trip!”

Rhiannon & Humphrey

“We hired the campervan (Mork) from Craig which was easy and straightforward from the first moment to the last.

Craig was helpful and flexible at all times and gave some fab recommendations on where to visit, eat and drink!

Mork was really comfortable, fun and cool! It was well equipped and had all the mod-cons to make it a comfortable week.

We were very sorry to leave Mork behind but no doubt we’ll be back for another trip in one of Craig’s vans soon!”

June 21

Hayley & Russell

“My boyfriend arranged a seven day trip around the NC500, and it was a trip of a lifetime, one we will never forget.

Freedom Campervans allowed us to see places we never knew existed in Scotland, provided us with top tips along the way and most of all made us feel at ease throughout. From the very start, Craig was the best support for us having never planned anything like this before. He provided us with a detailed welcome pack and gave us a full handover before we set off - the van had everything we needed.

We would highly recommend it to anyone who wishes to make unforgettable memories on the road

Craig, a massive thank you for everything and, most importantly, for trusting us with your little van ‘Mork’ - we can’t wait to plan our next trip with you! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿❤️🏔🥾”

Claudia & Nick

“Renting with Craig is the best decision anyone could make. His van was top notch and had us in superb comfort all over the west coast. Craig’s expertise and advice is better than anywhere else and is worth more than can be paid for. Our experience was fantastic and I would definitely go with Craig again.
