PETE was brilliant, really great at responding to questions on e-mail & phone. The motorhome (Barney) was great. They were really flexible in the collection and return of Barney, they spent all the time needed to explain the home to us .The home was really clean, smelt lovely. And had everything you could need.He was really supportive throughout our trip, offering advice whenever needed, and even offered to come meet us when we had an issue.Great company, would highly recommend, and we look forward to booking again.

Had a great holiday and Peter explained everything to us before we left.Slight issue arose and Peter was more than fair with us regarding what had happened.Would recommend to anybody and use them again in the future.

We have just finished hiring 3 out of 4 of Pete's vans.We are a group of 9 friends who follow Wales home and away and due to Covid had our trips to Azerbaijan and Rome cancelled. We instead decided on a tour of Wales in campervans in hope of repeating our trip to France in 2016.We found this company online, and from start to finish Pete was absolutely fantastic to deal with.We had previously been stung in 2016 with another company who took our £1250 deposit off us for a rubber seal breaking on a window we had never opened, so as you can imagine we were overly cautious on this trip.Unfortunately however, accidents do happen and I unfortunately reversed one of the vans into a small fence when trying to park, thus damaging the bumper. Pete had said if anything happened to let him know straight away. I was expecting the worst but Pete was unbelievably understanding and helpful with the situation advising how to secure the bumper for the rest of the trip.On our journey home one of my friends accidentally broke one of the head rests on their van, panic set it once again. I messaged Pete and once again he was very understanding and helpful with the situation. When we got back he took a look at both bits of damage, explained the headrest was an easy fix and he wouldn't be charging us and that he would try to sort the bumper for as cheap as he could. He called me later that day to say he had found one on ebay and would fit it himself for nothing. We were over the moon as we were expecting a huge bill. He took the small amount out of our deposit and the rest was sent back to us.The vans themselves are also a step up in comparison to other companies we have used, plates, mugs, cutlery and cleaning equipment are all provided and when we first arrived at Petes all the vans were immaculate.The 4 berth van in particular is out of this world with the white leather furnishings and dark oak finish.Pete and his wife are genuine people running an amazing business that you can see they have a passion for.I would absolutely one hundred percent recommend Hire a Hymer to anyone looking to rent a campervan.There's not many genuine people left in the world but Pete is one of them.Enjoy the beers we left Pete, they're deserved mate and apologies once again for the work we caused you!

I would say Pete is the best option for motorhome hire there is. Absolute lovely camper, great guidance and instructions and at the end of the phone if there was any issues.Slight issue arose and Pete was more than fair with us regarding what had happened.Would recommend to anybody and will definitely be returning

Hired twice from these guys, Peter is a legend, extremely helpful on both occasions. The vans are brilliant and well prepared, coming with everything you need for a fantastic trip. Rock solid and reliable.Have recommend to friends and family and would certainly use again in the future.The vans have plenty of character and are great fun.Very comfortable, providing a great night's sleep and more than capable on the road.Your given a full run down of the vans on pick up and Peter is more than happy to answer questions on the phone if you need during your travels.We we're given a free upgrade as one of the two vans we booked was involved in an accident and although just repaired Peter wanted to double check everything before renting it out.Absolute brilliant service, these guys go above and beyond. Many thanks for a great trip and many brilliant memories.

Took Bumblebee to the South Coast and Love Supreme. Paul and Sara were super helpful and the vehicle was excellent. A pleasure to deal with, thank you

Excellent

I’ve just celebrated my 50th in Roxy going around Norfolk. Such a helpful and accommodating company! Could not have asked for any more, flexibility, helpfulness and easy to deal with people from the first pint of contact all the way through to handing back they keys. The van is clean and easy to drive, beds are comfy and everything works. Will certainly be back!

Best ever festival

June 14, 2016

We have been going to Download festival for years, always camping. I thought we would treat ourselves and hire a motorhome this yeasr. My god it’s so much better than being in a tent, especially as the weather was terrible. We hired Selma for a week and she was superb. What a great old girl, all the comforts you could wish for and really easy to drive. Definitely going to do it again next year with Hireahymer, excellent value and service, a great company and people. Well recommended.

Awesome Ralph!

June 3, 2016

We have just returned from an amazing wedding and honeymoon adventure, which we shared with the fabulous Ralph!What an awesome motorhome he was for us! 2 adults, a 5 year old and 2 medium dogs, the hardest part was giving him back!A brilliant journey starting in the Lake District, followed by the west coast of Scotland, 4 islands, up to John O’Groats and Dunnet Head, and back down the east coast, all in 3 and a half weeks! (Oh, and our wedding in amongst it all)!Thank you so so much to the team at Hire a Hymer for providing us with such a clean, well maintained motorhome, and making our wedding adventure so perfect, will definitely be using these guys again!Big thanks, from the Hardy Family

The

Adventures With Maggie!

May 12, 2016

We just got back from 31 fantastic days travelling Western Europe with Maggie. She was perfect for our family of 4 (My wife and I, and two boys 6 and 9 years old.) Our Pop up truck camper was getting small for us and we loved the space that Maggie provided both on the road as we homeschooled the boys and when we found one of our many incredilbe campsites usually using Pete’s recommendations with the ACSI card or Searchforsites.co.uk. Searchforsites is a fantastic website especially if you like to wildcamp (i.e camp for free : ) which we did about half of our trip, many times ending up in lovely remote locations on rivers and lakes with nobody around. Wether we were exploring the cities of Paris and Segovia or the gorgeous countryside of Southern France we could always count on Maggie to manueuver us down a narrow road and at night provide us a comfortable place to sleep. She was our home away from home and we’re definitely going to miss her. Once we get back to the States we’re trading in the Pop-up and looking for a Hymer that reminds us of Maggie. Thanks Pete for everything, it was truly the trip of a lifetime. Until our next adventure, The Dahlen Family Luke – a pleasure.

Dissapointed

April 4, 2016

We booked and paid up for a bank holiday weekend hire. Due to circumstances beyond our control we had to cancel 8 days prior. We were told that the van was not re-let (even though the website showed it was!) and there was not a penny refunded. They told us the van was used instead, by their own family. We will never use this company again

Response from Hire a Hymer

Thanks for your review. I am very sorry that your planned event got cancelled. As I explained to you at the time of cancellation we would do our best to rehire the motorhome for your dates. If we were successful I would have given you a complete refund but alas due to the short notice, we were unable to fill the vacancy. Yes I let my niece take the motorhome for 1 night as there were no bookings on the motorhome. I also offered to transfer your £150 to another booking but you rejected this offer.. As I also explained that as a company we are not in a position to get insurance for missed bookings, as I made clear most personal travel insurance policies should cover this. Again sorry for your loss but we both entered the contract in good faith.

Four of us rented Homer

January 3, 2016

Four of us rented Homer and drove to the Alps and back for our first ever motorhome trip. We skied 6 days in 4 different countries and ski resorts thanks to the flexibility he offered us. Homer was ‘bombproof’ and kept us toasty warm in sub-zero temperatures. Pete and Phil went to extra lengths to help us be confident in the Alps. It was a great adventure and we all want to do the same next year. Thanks so much guys ! We’ve now got our beady eyes on your grandaddy of a MH – Snowball, if we can persuade you to put winter tyres on him

Jason

Response from Hire a Hymer

Glad you had a great adventure Jason – we will see about snow boots for Snowball
