I spent a week travelling with Lockie around the Scottish Highlands, and it couldn't have gone better! The van is really easy to drive, even for people like me who are not used to driving on the left side of the road. Had no problem driving on smaller roads or travelling to more remote locations such as the isle of Skye. On the inside, I found everything I needed to enjoy my trip. Lockie is well equipped and has this cosy feeling that makes spending time in the van very enjoyable. Joshua was also very quick to respond and everything went well communication wise. Overall very happy with my experience, would definitely recommend!
