My husband and I, along with our dog, recently returned from a Spaceships road trip through the Scottish Highlands and over to the sea to of Skye, and we could not recommend this company more!
On booking, I must admit we were sceptical as the price almost seemed too good to be true, especially in comparison to similar companies. However, it just so happened we booked on August Bank Holiday weekend and got a great deal. We also took the time to read countless positive reviews which sealed the deal for us - along with the fact that dogs were welcome aboard, too!
We picked the van up in Edinburgh, where all Covid precautions were clearly thought through and actioned accordingly. The pick-up instructions and videos we received in the lead up to our trip were also really useful. Our voyager was very clean and had everything we needed for a comfortable trip.
The van itself was easy to drive – it navigated the narrow roads and hairpin bends very well; all equipment was in good working order, and the fridge was a welcome addition, too. The bed was huge, and we were surprised at how much space we had even after unloading all our stuff into the van… and we did not pack lightly either!
During our trip, we saw quite a few Spaceships on the road both larger and smaller than the voyager so we knew we were in good company. We were more than happy in the voyager – though we were slightly jealous of the motorhomes happily cooking away inside whilst we were battling to keep our gas cooker alight in the pouring rain and howling winds! But what did we expect when camping in October – in all honesty it just added to the fun.
We are so grateful to Spaceships for giving us the opportunity to get away and enjoy a semblance of normality after a very strange year for all. The only problem we have now is to decide where to go next!
