A week away on the west coast of Scotland with my 10 year old son, an absolute brilliant week, and an amazing experience for my little boy. The stunning views and places we visited were truly stunning. We started at Fort William and headed over to the isle of sky. My boy’s favourite 2 things he said he loved doing was seeing the fairy pools, jumping in the pools and seeing the amazing waterfalls. wilding camping was such an experience for us both. Waking up and opening the motorhomes door to the most beautiful views. Such calm waters, sat with a coffee and truly relaxing. The motorhome was absolutely superb, it had everything we needed, it was like a home from home. We made great dinners in there and sat and chilled when the weather wasn’t too great. It truly made our holiday very special and I made great memories with my little boy. Memories we will both treasure for life. 😍. I truly recommend this to anyone. It just takes your mind of your busy lifestyles. I would like to thank Ian and his partner Raj for letting us taking Art on this amazing adventure. And would definitely be doing it again! Or I may have one of my own very soon! 😊. Thank you once again. Juli 2024
Reactie van Ian Hi Paul - that's such a beautiful review you left and I'm so glad that Art played a part in creating such brilliant memories with your son (a real nice lad :) ) It's exactly the kind of thing I wish all kids got to experience as it can really change their perspective on what the mountains, waterfalls and pools mean - they're not just to look at! Haha. It's exactly the kind of experiences I really hoped renting Art out could enable people to have. Hope you guys are both well and your sister and family are doing well too. All the best to you all. Thanks again, Ian

Reactie van Ian Thanks for the positive review Steve! Thanks for coming to visit Scotland and glad you made good use of Art on Skye and the West Coast. All the best with your travels in Aus - the Unimog maybe? Haha. Thanks again, Ian

We had an excellent trip to the Isle of Skye in Art! Ian was an excellent host and it was easy to contact him before and during the trip. The van was very clean and full of essentials when we picked it up making it a great home from home as we travelled around the island. Would definitely recommend Ian and Art the van! Juli 2024
Reactie van Ian Hi Stephanie, Thank you very much for your positive review and kind words. Really great you both got to enjoy some stellar sunshine and see Skye in all it's glory! All the best and hope to see you again. Cheers, Ian

I recently rented Ian's campervan "Art" for a trip around the Isle of Skye with a friend, and it was fantastic. The design of "Art" is super thoughtful and minimalistic, with everything we needed in a form of compact and stylish space. Everything worked perfectly, especially the heater, which made those Scottish cold evenings and mornings really comfy. The pickup and drop-off procedures were completely non-problematic - Ian has kindly explained us all we needed. Our adventure around the Isle of Skye was truly memorable. Highly recommend! Juli 2024
Reactie van Ian Thank you for the very positive review and feedback Szymon - really kind. It was great to meet you and Tomek and I loved hearing about your mission up Ben Nevis and onto Skye for some further hiking - you guys really couldn't get enough of the rain ...you should move up here! The heater ...haha... it's never worked so hard! :) Would love to welcome you guys back on your next adventure north. All the best.

We loved our stay in Art! Ian has really thought of everything you need for a relaxing bit of van lifing; a *super* comfy bed, a great kitchen and seating area, and a really effective heater for those chillier evenings. There's plenty of the power from leisure battery to keep your stuff charged and more than enough storage for all your holiday bits. It's a great sized van - we took Art up around the Torridon area and onto Skye, and it handled all the windy steep roads like a dream. Not too long for manoeuvres to be a pain, especially compared to some of the huge motorhomes we saw on the road. Meeting Ian was great, he made the handovers a breeze, chatting us through everything we needed to know clearly and answering any q's we had. During the trip he was very responsive and super helpful when we had an issue with GoBoony! We'd happily recommend Art to anyone wanting an off the beaten track adventure into some of the best of what Scotland has to offer! Thanks again Ian! (Hope your leg heals up soon mate!) Juni 2024
Reactie van Ian Thank you for the super positive and practical review Alex - really appreciate it. It was really nice to meet you and Rachel too and chat van-lifing in Canada - good times! Thank you for taking good care of Art and would love to welcome you both up to the Highlands again anytime, maybe for a spin North this time!? :) ...and the leg is healing slowly - thank you :) Take care of yourselves! Until next time..

Very good communication with Ian before and during the trip. Good handover and introduction to the camper van. Ian and Raji are both so friendly and helpful. We had a great time in the camper van and got to experience Isle of Skye and the area around Fort William. It was a perfect and very cosy base all four days both in good and bad weather. We had everything we needed and the camper van was so nicely equipped and furnished. We can really recommend this camper van for exploring Scotland. Mei 2024
Reactie van Ian Hi Eeva! Thank you very much for your review and for taking good care of Art. It was such a pleasure to welcome you and Marie to Inverness and great to hear you enjoyed your journey through the Highlands and Islands. Next time maybe the NC500? Let us know - we'd love to have you back.

We had a fantastic 4 night drive around the Isle of Skye in Art. 3 adults, parents and young adult son. The van was perfect, small enough to drive and manoeuvre with minimal blind spots and tall enough to stand up in when cooking. It was beautifully set up with lots of storage for luggage, equipment and food. The beds were super comfortable, both the main double bed and the small single bed made up from the dining seats. We all slept very well every night. Ian thoughtfully provided picnic tables and chairs and we enjoyed picnic lunches with unbeatable views, all the better for having the well equipped kitchen just behind us. We could cook up some pretty gourmet meals with just the 2 burner gas hob and small but adequate fridge. Its completely off grid and there’s more than enough drinking water storage With the front seats swiveled round, the van was surprisingly roomy and had dining space for 3 in bad weather. Ian and Raji are excellent hosts and there are so many thoughtful touches in the van, down to a hangboard which gave our son his daily dose of pull ups! Ian was very responsive to all our messages and we had a very clear idea of what to expect when we arrived. They gave us a very detailed walk around explaining everything clearly and there is also a detailed manual to explain all the equipment. The driving position is good and all passengers got a panoramic view. The pick up location is also very convenient, right in the city centre. We very highly recommend this van and its excellent owners ! Mei 2024
Reactie van Ian Thank you for your kind words Anthony - it was a pleasure to have you, Elisabeth and Daniel as our first guests using Art. Was really a wonderful first experience and I appreciated all the tech-chat too :) . Thank you for sharing the photos and I'm glad you had a brilliant time visiting. You'll be welcome back any time.
