A big thank you to Graham and Rachael from Sweet Campers for providing such an excellent service for my daughters wedding. In addition to the excellent service it was all the little touches that made the day special. There was so much thought and personal attention, from the glasses for the Prosecco to the sweet shop favours which were enjoyed by all. More importantly it was the professionalism and friendly manner in the delivery of whole service for which we are so grateful. Highly recommended and of course but not least was a good job carried out by Florence! Yvonne, May 2016
We hired Florence for our wedding day and was absolutely perfect. The personalised glasses and sweet bags were amazing. I couldn't believe how much detail Sweet Campers had put into making our day extra special. They certainly went above and beyond our expectations of being our wedding transportation. Graham on the day provided an excellent service and all my guests commented on how enthusiastic he was. You could tell he just really loved what he does. I am so glad I chose to go with Sweet Campers for our wedding transportation, will provide great memories and also got some keepsakes. Toria & Adam, May 2016
Great service and a very warm welcome. The VW Camper was very retro and great to drive my son enjoyed the experience.
I hired Olive as a surprise for my fiancés birthday. All throughout the booking process and lead up to the trip, communication and information was brilliant. When we arrived to pick her up, Graham gave us a detailed tour of Olive, showing us how to make the most of her. We were quickly on our way. What an experience driving Olive was! Neither of us had driven an older vehicle before and it was fantastic. Throughout our whole trip we had compliments from other people on how beautiful she was. Olive has everything you need, is comfortable and amazing throughout. To make the experience even better, the customer service was second to none. We will not hesitate to book again, and look forward to more adventures with Olive. Jess & Adam, April 2016
Just returned from a magical vintage mystery tour of the Durham Dales and Northumberland in Olive, the beautiful vintage VW camper van. We had an amazing time in this lovely vehicle, something we have wanted to try for years and she certainly lived up to our expectations. The attention to detail was second to none including our lovely welcome pack consisting of a bottle of prosecco and a vintage bucket load of yummy sweets personalised with a lovely little camper van label, which now hangs in our kitchen. We had so much fun, Olive attracted so much attention and we would definitely recommend this experience. Lesley and Mark, March 2016
We rented Olive out for our wedding day and she was perfect. Graham was the utmost professional driving us to and from our ceremony. The little personal extras that were provided made the day extra special. And all our guests commented on how fun and different the sweet shop was at the reception. Would certainly recommend this company for any special occasion. Erica & Michael, October 2015
We rented Olive for my birthday in October......and we had a fantastic time! Although the weather stopped us from driving to the Lakes as planned due to it being a bit too windy, we found some lovely sites not too far from home instead. Communication during our booking was efficient and friendly, the process was completed with ease. Olive was immaculately presented and the owners couldn't have been more helpful offering us extra equipment should we have needed it. The vehicle is a pleasure to spend time in and our children were so excited to sleep up in the roof! Their faces were a picture as we set off on our adventure and the novelty didn't wear off for the duration of our trip. Everything we needed was there and Olive was warm and snug at night. I am sure this will be the first of many trips for us in Olive, we highly recommend Sweet Campers. Annalisa, October 2014
Hire an adventure!

Olive was in amazing condition it surpassed both of our expectations and we will definitely be looking to take Olive out again next year..!! Massive Thank you to Graham for keeping this Beauty in pristine condition and sharing the experience and also for being so helpful during the hire..! Thanks again... Patrick and Caroline, March 2016
I can't recommend Graham enough! He was fantastic and made the time we spent with him great fun and relaxing! The photo opportunities we had with olive were fantastic! Thanks for being an amazing part of our wedding! Stefanie & Matt, September 2015
Max and Paddy on the Road Again: “Another mint trip with olive ” Second time we hired olive and will not be the last as another class tour with the lads, never let us down once even up the massive hills of yorkshire this time and it should a great experience cruising around in olive as you get so much attention, we all loved it and once again graham was so helpful, We definitely see you soon. Paul & Mark, August 2015
Retro Fun I hired Olive for a birthday surprise for my husband who had fond memories of his Grand father's orange camper van. He was not disappointed. There was room for my husband and 2 ten years olds who toured round the Yorkshire Dales, stopping at a beach and music festival. Olive provided a fridge, sink, stove, heater and water supply. We would definitely hire her again. Fiona, August 2015
“Helped make our wedding day extra special
Fantastic vintage VW camping experience! We took Olive over to the Lakes for a short break over October half term and we weren't disappointed! Olive is a classic VW camper van, is in excellent condition and had everything we needed. She was great fun to drive and attracted a lot of attention during our stay. Graham was very helpful, friendly and professional to deal with and we would highly recommend Sweet Campers to others. Andrew & Anne-Marie, October 2015
Would like to thank Sweet Campers for providing the transport for our wedding, Graham you are a true professional, from the booking all those months ago to actually arriving to collect Emma. The experience you provided was second to none, the camper was immaculate even down to the sweet touches you provided, (champagne and custom champagne flutes and the bag of sweets with the personalised label). I can't thank you enough as words can't express the memories you have created for Emma and myself. A first class service and will certainly recommend you and all the services you offer, you have made a very happy bride and groom and those pictures are fabulous (especially the one of me behind the wheel making the sounds myself ). Once again a massive thank you from both Dave and Emma, the new Mr & Mrs Hitchen. Dave Hitchen, June 2015
I booked Sweet campers in January of this year as a surprise transport to my friends birthday party. Graham was a pleasure to deal with from the moment I made first contact regarding prices. He was very professional and friendly. Nothing was a problem and I was impressed with the detail he took regarding our suprise mystery tour, top bloke! Then to the lovely Olive! She turns up looking stunning, a fantastic surprise treat for my best buddy,sweets and bubbly for us all. It really was the perfect start to the celebrations .I just can't wait to book her for a holiday. Sarah, January 2015
We booked Olive to see the wonderful Northumberland Coastline. We had such a great adventure and enjoyed everyone waving at us as we went by. We will be telling all our friends about Sweet Campers. Aislinn, New Zealand, August 2014
We had a lovely trip to the Lake District with our two kids and my wife's parents. While not everyone had a seat belt for the drive, we were all safe and comfortable the whole way. It was great to drive around the Lakes in Olive and stop wherever we wanted before settling down for the night in the space we reserved. The awning was easy to set up (even in the steady rain) and offered plenty of extra space to hang out and to sleep. My wife has been trying to get me to go camping for years, but I've always complained that I just don't sleep well while camping, but I don't have that excuse any longer. Olive was super comfortable and I had one of the best night's sleep in recent memory. The boys loved sleeping up top and thought it was tons of fun to be up so high. They too slept wonderfully. We're definitely planning to camp with Olive again soon! Adam & Renee, July 2015
I booked Olive for a 4 day trip as a surprise for my two boys (ages 7 and 8). I asked my boys afterwards how they rated Olive and my youngest gave it a million, million stars – unfortunately Tripadvisor only allows a maximum of 5! Olive has bags of charm and after a few minutes getting used to her, she is actually great to drive. It’s by no means a fast drive - but we took it to Ayr and back with no problems. Picking her up was straightforward and relaxed and the instructions on how to use everything were pretty simple. It was definitely a feel good trip as people wave at you as you drive past and come up to chat about her when you park-up for the night. The only sad part of the trip was handing the keys back when we got back. Gordon, July 2015
We used sweet campers for the transport for my daughters wedding, at the last minute they also supplied transport for my daughters partner to the venue, very reasonably priced, very professional and genuinely nice people. Would definitely recommend to other people and would use again. Anne Lowther, July 2015
We hired Olive the camper for our wedding day! She took the groom to the wedding, then took us for our first drive as a married couple (with some lovely champagne thrown in!) then converted into a vintage sweetie shop for our guests to take wedding favour jars to fill and then Graham & Rachael even agreed to leave her overnight at hotel so we could drive off into the sunset for a weekend mini-moon! Graham & Rachael could not be more helpful, we felt like we had two friends share our day with us. The camper itself is brilliant, all packed ready with all those little things you never think to pack - even a picnic basket! We are already planning our next trip and can't wait. A brilliant experience with a brilliant couple to boot.. highly highly recommend! Stacey & Craig x, June 2015
Sweet Campers were booked by my brother as a surprise for our wedding. They were amazing! The retro sweetshop went down a treat especially with the children. I would highly recommend them. The campervan is stunning and the staff are very friendly and made the whole experience one to remember. Kevin & Tracey, North Yorkshire, August 2014
We booked with sweet campers last minute for a family day out in July 2014, Booking was easy and the website was really useful we were a bit worried about driving the camper van as we'd never hired one before but my husband soon got used to its rustic charm and we even risked a last minute visit to Saltburn for fish and chips despite the steep hill! I was a bit worried about safety but our car seats fitted the seat belts in the camper van no problem and we'd definitely book with sweet camper again. the boys (including my husband) didn't stop smiling from the moment we set off. the seats were comfortable and the camper van was surprisingly spacious we'd definitely consider booking for a long weekend in future. the owners have included a picnic hamper, blanket and table and chairs which was really useful and easy to put up and the camper van has a fridge so we could literally just turn up with everything provided. Excellent camper van and a wonderful day out, we've recommended sweet campers to family and friends already. Lucy, County Durham, July 2014
We booked Olive after looking around for a long time at campers and we are so glad we did - we had the best time! Graham dealt with our booking brilliantly and talked us through how to get the best out of the camper van which is kitted out with everything you could ever need and is immaculate. We travelled around Northumberland - me, my husband our 2 1/2 year old daughter and Tiger our dog - every day was a brilliant adventure. We camped at the side of the sea two nights and on remote campsites the other two - just heavenly. Olive is comfortable, reliable, safe and secure but mainly she is just beautiful. She is really special - whether spending time driving on stunning coastal roads or taking an afternoon snooze with our daughter watching birds soar over Bamburgh Castle from the open back she is just perfect and gave us memories we will treasure. The hardest part of the holiday is giving her back - our daughter actually cried because we couldn't keep her. Don't think twice, book her - only not when we want her again ha ha ! Deb & Steve, July 2015
We initially booked olive for our honeymoon weekend but due to unforeseen circumstances had to change our wedding date so instead had to only use her for our transport. Graham had no problem in changing our booking by 16 weeks as well as it's usage. During the full process graham kept in contact with us and the communication was great. Prior to our wedding day we were contacted with timings he also asked the names of my son and bridesmaid and it was lovely that on the day he had bags of personalised sweets for ourselves and my son and bridesmaids. There was a bottle of champagne for our journey to the reception. Graham arrived in plenty of time looking very smart. Olive has clean and well decorated. Once at our venue our guests were given plenty photo opportunities. My son even got the chance to "drive" the camper. Well pretend as he's only 2. I would definitely use olive for a short break. Thanks again. Kirby and Andrew Graham, May 2015
“Perfect holiday in Olive”
