This is our almost new motorhome to be used for our retirement. We are loving it. It has a powerful engine and the interior is pristine, with a well designed small kitchen, gas cooktop, microwave, fridge and heater. We live in a wonderful part of the country (high sunshine hours, great beaches, bush, rivers) and are happy to let our motorhome out to others during busy school holiday times. We can share information on the delights of the Eastern Bay of Plenty. There's Air Chathams flights to Whakatane from Auckland and we can meet you at the airport, or meet you in Tauranga or Rotorua if you use our motorhome for two weeks or more.

    The van was absolutely awesome, we had 8 very great nights away with our dog Pipi in the van around the Coromandel! Super easy to drive and set up. Ruth has set the van up perfectly to be used to its full potential as a camper! The bed was great and super easy to pack back down into the table and bench seats during the day! Such a great way to see the country and an even better van to do it in!

    Very good van and we had great 2 months touring both islands. Fridge is very spacious but if going off grid turn stat lower for battery life. Also Heating is good when on 240volt but battery can only last one night when off grid. Ruth is going to add another solar panel which will resolve any issues. The bed is very big and comfortable. A roll out awning to side of the van would be beneficial. Very nice easy driver.

    Ruth & John were one of the kindest kiwis we met on our adventure. They hosted us for the night as we were late getting to Whakatane. They showed us how to use the Campervan which was clean & tidy. We absolutely loved using their Campervan & looking at buying our own one one day Thank you for everything, Ruth & John, it was an absolute pleasure meeting you both and K loved meeting the hen and the donkey uncles . We highly recommend Ruth & Johns campervan.
