We were very pleased with the service offered by Scottish Tourer Motorhomes. Booking and collection were made easy, and this being out first Motorhome rental we were a bit skeptic. But everything was well taken care of by Gordon & Corinne, so that we set off for 6 very pleasant days with the kids to the West Coast. The Motorhome was in excellent condition well equipped and everything was explained to us in detail up front.We enjoyed the experience so much we are already thinking of our next trip, and would definitely go back to Scottish Tourer, as well as recommend them to anyone who is on the look out for a Motorhome rental in Scotland.
It was one of the best of our holiday weeks ever. My family got a motorhome from Corinne and Gordon, October 13-20th. It was our first motorhoming experience and we enjoyed it a lot! Even it was not a nice weather and we have used outside camping very little...
Motorhoming advantages we have found are as follows:
- my family was all together 24 hours like at home with enough amount of space,
- we found it fully equipped, it were only clothes we had to take from home,
- we were totally independent where to stay and where to go: we have used official camping site only once for to recharge our phone batteries,
- we were able to plan ahead our expenses very precisely and we fit it,
- we were surprised how smoothly car runs on the roads.
And exceptional - Gordon and Corinne were very helpful instructing us and ready to help us 24 hours.
Finally, for everybody: Scotland is outstanding land! Go there, it worth every pens.
We toured the north and north west of Scotland in a Scottish Tourer motorhome (Oct 2011). The vehicle was simply first class, and Scottish Tourers were a pleasure to deal with. They were very understanding (indeed, empathic) regarding our circumstances (we have four young children) and couldn't have been more friendly, helpful and accommodating. We will use their services again, and would not hesitate in recommending Scottish Tourers to others.
Just wanted to say thanks for all your help - we enjoyed our first ever trip in an extremely well appointed and immaculately clean campervan. Although everything seemed a little overwhelming at the start actually all instructions were well explained and in reality was easy once you started - including the driving!!
We had a marvellous trip in the motorhome, so stress free and easy right from the first phone call to Gordon and Corrine. Nothing is too much trouble for them and they make everything so simple. It was easy to book, clear instructions and directions, they are genuinely happy to help and care very much that your holiday in one of their motorhomes will be perfect!
We have hired a motorhome before from a company where no-one (The Staff) actually used the motorhome - various members of staff 'readied' the van for our trip and it was a disaster!
Not so this time!! The brilliant bonus of using Scottish Tourer is that you deal with Corrine or Gordon - not countless members of staff who you never see, its a very personal service and as they are so hands on they know everything about each individual van and have kitted it out just as it needs to be. As regular motorhome campers themselves they are experts on how to get the best out of your motorhome holiday - top tips and advice on everything from driving the van and packing it, right the way through to suggestions for great days out! It can be very nerve wracking and daunting booking something as important as a holiday through the internet, but we are delighted to say without reservation that you are in safe hands with Scottish Tourer! The website has great photographs and what you see is what you will actually get - no tricks or gimmicks and you will not be disappointed when you see your van!
Patient and helpful and only ever a phone call away - beautiful vans that are clean and new - we slept so well and I even plucked up the courage to do a little driving, which I reckon I handled pretty well!!
Cannot wait to see your new motorhome fleet for next year - we will be calling again!!
We really enjoyed our holiday in Scotland in the motorhome. It was in a lovely clean condition and great working order. We appreciated the effort you went to in bringing the motorhome to Aberdeen and dropping us off after our holiday, showing us how to operate the motorhome and organising a babyseat for us. The advice you gave us on the route to take and places to stay lead us to see such beautiful areas of Scotland which were not listed in the guidebooks. You have always been so quickly responsive to our requests. We highly recommend your company.
Dear Gordon & Corinne - as you know we had a great time - with much due to your helpfulness. Here are the phrases that I would use to reflect on our expereince - please feel free to us them.
Couldn't have been more helpful
Friendly and enthusiastic in sharing their wealth of knowledge to help us plan routes.
Great attention to detail
Excellent communicators
Thoroughly committed to customer satisfaction
We will definitely book with them again
Made our first experience easy and smooth & helped us decide what to do and used their experience to help us avoid difficulties They seemed to have thought of everything for us then left us alone to enjoy ourselves
We had a wonderful holiday in Scotland this summer. It was our first vacation in a Motorhome, but certainly not the last.
For anyone who consider to hire a Motorhome, don't hesitate to contact Corinne and Gordon. From their company you get very good value for your money. Good service all the way from our first inquiry till we delivered the Motorhome after a fine trip around Scotland...
We spent a wonderful few days in August in "our" lovely motorhome. I've rented motorhomes previously from elsewhere, but was attracted to this hire company as the homes are really very new (a few weeks old in this case) and certainly felt hardly used. Upholstery and finishings, which can quickly show wear, were all lovely and new, and the matresses felt fresh and were really comfortable. We also loved that the vehicle was equipped for wild camping, so we never went near a campsite, and loved just stopping wherever took our fancy. No worries about running out of water or gas.
The weather was pretty poor while we were away, but the home's central heating worked wonderfully, and warmed (and cheered) us up when we got soaked! My children were delighted that it rained as we got to spend more time in the motorhome, playing games and watching the flat screen TV. We even got a signal in quite remote places - really odd to be in stunning Scottish peace and tranquility watching riots in London!
Gordon and Corrine took time to explain all the details of how the home and cab worked, and i knew they were only at the end of the phone if we had any queries, though we didn't need to ring.
We loved our trip and wouldn't hesitate to rent from Scottish Tourer again.
Many thanks for your excellent service and support in supplying us with a 7 berth motorhome for our family's first experience of such a holiday. The motorhome had every facility imagineable, was in tremendous condition being only weeks old and was more pleasant to drive than I had anticipated. I would have no hesitation in recommending your service to family and friends be they first timers like us or more experienced than we were. Once again many thanks.
I spent hours trailing through the internet, not only looking for a good deal but also
To find a holiday firm that actually do care about your holiday experience and not just taking your money and leaving you to get on with it. I am sure there may be other good firms out there, but for me no one else came remotely close. Gordon and Corrine are 100% dedicated to ensuring that you will have a happy and carefree holiday. The motorhome itself was a late model modern, very easy to drive and the functions easy to operate both in and outside. The motorhome was also immaculately clean. This was my first holiday in a motorhome and it could not have gone any smoother for me.
Scottishtourer include every item you could need at no extra cost! Check the list of items included on the scottishtourer website against any other company! Gordon and Corrine are a nice friendly couple always at the end of the phone for any questions or help you may need while you out and about anything from directions to places to see and things to do, I loved the wild camping element of my holiday, not once having to stay on a paying campsite squashed in with lots of other campers, this was thanks to their wide knowledge of wild camping spots scattered around the highlands. I also found a couple of great camp spots myself around Wester Ross, The Isle of Skye and Glen Nevis are a must see ! So if your thinking of booking with scottishtourer look no further! And finally many thanks Gordon and Corrine for a fantastic carefree holiday.
Michelle and I had a fantastic week touring Scotland. Both Gordon & Corinne were friendly and couldn't have been more helpful. The motorhome they supplied was new, very comfortable, and perfect for extended touring without the need to stop each day at a site to re-charge batteries etc. Great experience and highly recommended.
Thanks for hospitality you made us feel so welcome. We really had a great week in Scotland, already given your no to a friend!! Your set up and equipment is second to none.
Gordon and Corrine are passionate about their business, they are lifelong camper van users themselves and know exactly what is required to provide an exceptional service. Their campers are all brand new, spotlessly clean and fully kitted with everything you need, bring your own food and wine of course!
This was our first trip in a motor-home, so were slightly anxious before we started the trip round Scotland. We shouldn't have been !
Gordon explained all of the exterior side of the motor home, while Corinne clarified any queries we had on the internal points . They could not have done more to help, nothing seemed to be a bother to them.
The motor home came fully equipped with everything required for a most enjoyable journey. As well as cooking facilities, there was a shower, a toilet, camp chairs and a table, a television, a DVD player, even a barbeque!
My wife was so taken with the whole week that we are determined to make this a regular part of our holidaying experience.
First of all, thanks for the great time we had with you both and the two weeks we spend in your lovely motorhome. We enjoined the luxury of it and loved all the wild camp places where we spend the night. Also thanks a lot for your assistance when we had a flat tire and with the faulty charger. And not to mention the help when I 'touched' the mirror of a Land Rover Discovery at the third day. It helps a lot when the owner of the motorhome (you) stays friendly and joyful!
But even with the small problems we enjoyed every minute! We hope to come back next year and continue our search for beautiful wild camp places, castles and (most important) whiskys!
So we look forward to meet you again next year. Thanks again for one of our best holidays ever!
We found Scottish Tourers on the internet having looked at numerous other motorhome hire companies. We selected it on the basis of its location, testimonials and it being a smaller, more personal company. What a good call. The van was perfect, Gordon and Corinne were really friendly and provided lots of useful advice/tips to make our holiday a great success (despite some occasional wet weather). It was our first proper visit to Scotland and this was a great way of exploring it. Only downside was that one week was not enough! I would not hesitate in using them again or recommending them to friends or family.
What said it all at the end of the holiday was my partner Jane wishing we could have had the Motorhome for another week. We all enjoyed the freedom to stop where we wanted when we wanted and found some idyllic places to park in often complete isolation, with only the sound of water and birds to disturb us. The Motorhome was in spotless condition when we got it, performed perfectly on steep hills and winding single track roads and was surprisingly easy to get on and off the three ferries we used. We are already planning to do it again in a couple of years time. Thank you for making our holiday one of the best this family has ever had.
Thankyou for our fantastic holiday. Your friendly service made the world of difference to us, knowing that you were on the end of the phone when there were any problems was so reassuring and when we did phone you solved the problem immediately.
You seem to know Scotland like the back of your hand and the recommendations to itinery were very much apprieciated, although sadly we did not have enough time to reach them all.
We will definately be back to finish the trip!
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Scottish Tourer to anybody, this is more than hiring a spotless motorhome but a genuinely personal and friendly service.
Thankyou again, i think you will meet my in-laws by the end of the year!
Our holiday in Scotland was just fantastic. We have been so lucky to find the most reliable and professional tourer company for our holiday.
As our very first experience with a motorhome, we wanted to make sure all was very well prepared and perfectly explained, knowing that we had to carry our young daughters on this trip.
Our holiday will remain a wonderful memory for us regarding the quality and the maintenance of the camping-van we booked by internet. All the booking process was very convenient and perfectly led by Gordon from the moment we show our interest in this type of holiday. We have been received by Gordon and Corrine in person at their home, and their welcome was just unbelievable. We could not expect such cheerful welcome in Perth, prior to our presentation of the van and all the details of our journey.
For our family, couple with two kids ( 4 and 5 year old daughters), this van was very well fitted. All the major tasks to be kept in mind was very simple to handle, such as tanks replenishment and security measures while driving. Personally I was feeling a bit nervous before the explanations, but Gordon described all so simply and accurately that we could leave without a single concern about the coming week, alone in Scotland.
As well as good addresses not to miss out along the trip, like good seafood restaurant, the itinerary left by Gordon and Corrine has been very helpful for us to discover all the beauty hidden in Scotland. At no moment we felt isolated knowing the full availability of Gordon or Corinne, in any occasion and for any kind of question we could have had during the tour.
Our one week holiday, with six rainy days, was just great and we do recommend Scottish Tourer as the very first experience with motor-home to drive through this magic land.
We hope some day, to have the occasion once more to visit Scotland, for sure with Scottish Tourer. We wish all the people interested in having this kind of experiment to point Gordon and Corrine's site first, to ensure the quality and the comfort of a wonderful van to enjoy Scotland sightseeing tour.
Our motorhome experience with your company has been one of our best holidays ever! We spent a week exploring stunning scenery in the Highlands and the Isle of Skye and will definitely return. The motorhome itself was immaculate and like a "home from home", with everything you could possible need and more. Our children enjoyed the freedom that only this type of holiday can provide, wildcamping by beautiful lakes, barbecuing in forests, exploring rockpools, climbing mountains and much much more! This was our first experience in a motorhome and we would certailnly recommend Scottish Tourer to anyone who has a motorhome dream like ourselves. Gordon and Corrrine ensure that the Motorhomes are immaculate and are always at the other end of the phone if you have a query however small. They also provide a personal service and have a special knowledge of the best routes to take. Thank you for helping create special holiday memories that we will treasure for many years to come.
We celebrated a 40 birthday with a surprise weekend and I had a lot of last minute organisation things to do. But we really enjoyed our holiday in your motorhome. The motorhome was brand new, well equiped and spacious enough for the 5 of us. The children didn't mind driving long distances because they were able to watch tv, read a book or make a drawing at the table. Besides the brand new motorhome we really appreciated your service. You were always available to answer our questions we had before and during our holiday. We chose Scottish Tourer because you gave value for money. A one price all inclusive packet, no extras so we knew what to expect. I'm sure when we want to hire a motorhome again we will definitely go back to Scottish Tourer.
Your fantastically new motorhome was a great introduction to motorhoming and Scotlands' coast and highlands. All made the better by the fact the vehicles are up to date and immaculate. Then topped off by the friendly and attentive service from yourselves. And we've told everyone we know.
We have just returned from 10 days touring Scotland in one of Gordon and Corinne's wonderful Motorhomes, and what can we say that our 4 year old daughter has not already said (every day since we came home!)... "that was the best holiday ever". From the initial enquiry stage through to booking and then pick-up, Gordon was extremely helpful and prompt with his replies to our queries. On pick-up, Corinne was very thorough with the general information regarding the workings of the Motorhome. The Motorhome was immaculate and everything was in perfect working order. We spent a very comfortable, relaxing and enjoyable 10 days onboard with our 2 young children. We would not hesitate to recommend 'Scottish Tourer' and hopefully we will be using them again ourselves in the future.
Wanting to do something a little different for my three young children and have my elderly parents with us, I found Gordon and Connie and their 7 birth 707 Motorhome. Coming from Singapore, my family had never seen anything like this. When collected from the Airport by Gordon we were 'blown-away' with the Motorhome, looking Brand Spanking New, gleaming in the car park. Gordon took us back to his place for induction showing us the fully equiped Motorhome with crockery, bedding, picnic table and chairs, etc, even down to washing-up cloths and tea towels. We loaded up and off we went into the Highlands of Scotland. Being fully equipped for wild camping, the Motorhome easily managed to keep all seven of us snug when is chilly, full when we were hungry and clean when we were grubby. Although the Motor home was large it was a joy to drive coped with anything the Scottish roads could throw at us.
Thank you for making our holiday special and I hope all the different people who approached us to admire your Motorhome give you lots of future business.
We had an absolutely fantastic holiday in the motorhome. It was so clean and well equipped, and more spacious than we anticipated. The children all had the time of their lives and I'm sure we'll be back for another hire soon.
After looking at the many websites offering motorhomes for hire, we picked scottishtourer and this turned out to be a great choice. Within 15 minutes of emailing our request, Gordon was on the phone giving us all the information we required. The price that was quoted included everything and there were no hidden extras like on some other websites. And when they said everything, they meant everything - maps, sat nav, every kind of phone charger connector, books of campsites, lists of wild camping spots, unlimited mileage (good for us as we did over 1000 miles in a week's mini tour of Scotland!). The motorhome that we hired was brand new and absolutely spotless. Gordon and Corinne were extremely helpful and friendly throughout the hire period. Always on the end of the phone if there was a problem, or just needed somewhere they could recommend, they just laughed when I told them I had forgotten to screw the water cap back on after filling up with freshwater, and was probably lying on a roadside somewhere on Harris. (tip - stick a sponge in the opening till you get back to Perth, worked a treat!) We would definitely choose scottishtourer again and have recommended them to all our friends.
This was our first motorhome holiday, and the whole family loved it. The boys especially appreciated the tv & dvd player to watch during the longer drives. I've never driven a motorhome before, but the 707 was great to drive. We only stopped at a couple of 'official' campsites, and spent the rest of the time wild-camping. Waking up next to a loch on a sunny morning is hard to beat! Gordon and Corinne really know their stuff and put us 'first timers' at ease with lots of helpful advice. Highly recommended.
Being motorhome novices, we were slightly nervous about driving and living in a motorhome for a week. Gordon and Corinne put us at our ease very quickly with their professionalism and clear knowledge, giving a great level of support from our first enquiry right through to the end of our holiday. Gordon and Corinne were absolutely great at showing us the ropes, helping us understand the features of the motorhome, and how to get the best from our holiday. The motorhome we hired was faultless, absolutely spotlessly clean and we had the most incredible holiday exploring the highlands. Gordon and Corinne were always on the end of the phone if we needed any help in finding somewhere to stay, or had any questions about the van. All information provided was comprehensive and accurate, all dealings with Gordon and Corinne have been straight-forward and we will most definitely be booking a motorhome through Scottish Tourers again. We would without hesitation recommend Scottish Tourer
Having recently enjoyed a holiday on the Western Scottish Highlands, we felt compelled to thank you both for all your help. We were first time 'Motorhomers' and really appreciated the very friendly and comprehensive overview of the motorhome, which ensured we knew exactly what to do! The motorhome was fantastic, spotless and clearly very well cared for, it catered for all our needs. On the occasions were we needed to call Scottish Tourers, the help we received was brilliant! We will definitely book again for another holiday!
We would all like to say a huge thank you to you both for helping us to have such a great holiday last week.
The Motor Home was excellent. Beautifully clean and containing everything we needed for our trip.
Information about the hire, instructions for collection and directions for pick up were all clear and comprehensive, and assisted in making our holiday totally hassle free.
Even better, your information and help with things like the wild camping and golf locations etc. was fabulous. You could not have been more supportive and I am certain we will see you at some time in the future for another holiday. We will be very happy to recommend you to anyone we know looking for a similar holiday.
Thanks again for being so superb - fabby, new motorhome and awesome backup - no matter what time of day or night.
You have been brilliant, and we have already recommended you to many friends and colleagues.
We will certainly use you when we go motorhoming again.
Just wish it was you running motorhome hire in Canada and Australia too - cos then we'd know everything would be fine.
From the moment I contacted Scottishtourer.co.uk both Gordon and Corrine were amazingly friendly and helpful, giving us a very good quote for our eight night hire. My partner Phil and I chose their company because of their clear passion for touring, flexibility and willingness to answer all my daft questions any time of the day or night! As complete Motorhome novices we were slightly clueless when we picked up our Cariocca 6-berther but Corrine and Gordon showed remarkable patience with us and expressed confidence that we would soon get to grips with it. They even suggested a route to make the most of our eight nights on the West Coast of Scotland. The motorhome was brand new (just a month old) and an amazing piece of equipment and, as predicted, within a couple of days it felt like home. We visited some of the wildest and most spectacular places either of us has ever seen - in comfort and luxury. Even our 21-month old daughter loved looking out the window at the dramatic landscapes and she slept beautifully in her bunk while we enjoyed the space and cosiness of the king-sized cabin up top. Gordon and Corrine were always available on the end of the phone in case we had any questions and their enthusiasm was infectious. In short we had a great holiday and this was due in no small part to Gordon and Corinne.
This was the first time we had tried a motorhome holiday. We had a fantastic time. Travelling with two youngsters we were able to stop and go as we pleased, travelling at our pace. The kids loved the adventure and still talk about "our motorhome". One thing we really enjoyed using was the awning. (Most companies don't fit awnings on rental vehicles, they are willing to trust us with a motorhome but not a wind out awning?) Combine this with the table,chairs and BBQ, and we found that if we did visit a campsite we quickly made friends!
These were four really nice guys up in Scotland for a mountain bike holiday who returned the Motorhome in immaculate and clean condition, An insect repeller has no effect on the Scottish midge and these guys were in the Ben Nevis area where the midge is most common, However we are now going to supply citronella sticks for customers heading to that area during the midge season. The best way is to keep the fly screens all closed so they cant get in the Motorhome.
The generator would normally fit in the garage compartment under the bunk beds but with all the gear needed for these mountain bikers this was not possible also the generator needs to be big enough to drive the air con system when wild camping.
The camper was fantastic, perfect for our trip, the only comment, could do with some 12volt insect repellers, and a generator that's just a tiny bit smaller top fit in when under way.
Just to say what a great holiday we had, The Motorhome was excellent and your help with our holiday was much appreciated, We will defiantly recommend you to our friends and family.
We are so glad we booked our motorhome with you. The whole booking and return of the vehicle was seamless and we appreciate how you offered help with useful advise and destination tips. The motorhome itself was spotlessly clean and very comfy. It was fantastic how you had thought of providing just about everything we needed to make it an easy trip. We'll definitely be telling friends! Thank you so much!
We would highly recommend renting from Gordon & Corinne after the personal and professional experience we enjoyed during our one-week holiday in Scotland. The caravan was in perfect condition, well equipped and performed flawlessly throughout our holiday. Set-up and operation was intuitive and the personalized pick-up and drop-off service in Perth made the whole experience so much easier.
We have done a very good trip in motorhome with our children. It was the first time with a vehicle like this. We have appreciated the quality of the motorhome. Very well equipped, clean, for a good price. Gordon and Corinne are very pleasant and nice, they gave us good advices and they was very helpful. I Trust them and I recommend them.
We holiday in Scotland every few years, However we were disappointed the company we normally use were fully booked, we booked with Gordon & Corinne and were we glad we did, the 5 berth we had booked was not available and we were given a free upgrade to a six berth which was only a few weeks old (think we were first to use it), it come with every conceivable extra fitted they even threw in barbeque coals and fluid, we knew the route we wanted to travel but their help and knowledge of free spots with fantastic views made our holiday so much more enjoyable, Have booked with them again, roll on July.
We are a retired couple thought we were going senile as we booked a Motorhome on the spur of the moment to tour west coast and Isle of Skye, this was our first time in a Motorhome, glad Corinne was very patient with us showing how everything worked, The vehicle was fairly new and in mint condition, We followed the route and stop over places they suggested... Totally fantastic... one of the free overnight parking places they has marked on the map was at the distillery in Skye overlooking a sea loch we enjoyed a dram of their produce in the evening watching the sun go down. We were so impressed 4 weeks later we bought our own Motorhome, and have since travelled to France, Spain, Portugal, we really appreciate the invaluable help from both of them in purchasing our own Motorhome that suited our needs as its opened up a whole new way of life to us. Many Many Thanks
Thank you for all your help and advise during our first Motorhome holiday. Not having done this sort of thing before having good, sensible advise and a terrific van made it all undaunting. The motorhome itself was immaculate, very well kitted out and great to drive, the only dissapointed was that we get enough time to try out and use everything it had!! Will definately return for another trip and wouldn't hesitate to recommend Scottish Tourer as your one stop shop for a motorhome holiday.
This trip (10 nights around Scotland) was our first experience of motor homing but it certainly won't be our last. The motor home selected for our trip was a 5 berth brand new model which was fully equipped and immaculate inside and out. Gordon and Corinne were both very friendly and equally professional. Before we departed, they gave us great advise including invaluable tourist leaflets and maps and when we returned we enjoyed sharing stories of our travels over a cup of tea. We will certainly look forward to hiring from Gordon and Corinne again for our next adventure.
We hired a brand new Carioca 7 berth motorhome with Scottish Tourer over Easter for a week to explore the Highlands. From the moment we made contact with Gordon and Corinne they couldn't have been more helpful and welcoming in helping us prepare for our holiday. They were always available to answer calls and emails as this was our first motorhome holiday.
The motorhome itself was fabulous with all the comforts of home and loads of extras. Before heading off on our own Gordon and Corinne patiently showed us how everything worked and reassured us enormously. Their advice and experience covered absolutely everything (even including BBQ tips)and ensured we set off with the confidence to enjoy our new home for the week. We had a fantastic week and thoroughly enjoyed the experience. All in all a great motorhome and a great price and with exceptional quality of service. We have only been home a week and are already planning our next holiday with Scottish Tourer!
We were delighted with the friendly and exceptional service provided by Corinne and yourself . Not only did we receive an excellent and well prepared new Motorhome, we were also given brilliant advice and loads of tips, This was our first time using a motorhome and we were given full instruction on its use and also phone numbers to call at any time if any problems should we have any queries or problems. This was all on the back of a great price! Many thanks once again.
We are very satisfied, very nice reception and good service on hand over of the motor home, very good documentation, maps and GPS, They were very responsive in case of problems, 2 hours to get a tyre replacement on a Sunday in the country side is very good. The motor home itself was in a very good condition and very well prepared beds, towels ..., very good cooking place and surprisingly good oven.
