Would definitely recommend using Grampian Campervan Hire when you're looking to rent a van. Great location close to Cairngorms, Moray Coast and on your way to the West. Safe parking of your own car at their premises.

We had an incredible time exploring the NC500 in two of the Grampian camper vans! They were both in immaculate condition, fully equipped with everything you could possibly need, comfortable and spotless. The service from Mieke and Jan was phenomenal from start to finish - brilliant communication, responsive, and just lovely people! We will absolutely come back ourselves, and highly recommend to everyone.

We had an amazing few days away in Ben Lui. The van was spotless and Mieke is great. She runs through everything before you leave and makes sure you know where everything is. I will be back next year
