DriveNow's take: vehicle |  Jack's takeThe Go Cheap 2 Berth Hitop has all the essentials at an affordable price — hitop design so you can stand inside, 2 burner gas stove, and a double bed that converts to seating. It's automatic with cruise control, perfect for longer drives. About GoCheap 2 Berth Hi TopJack's takeThe Go Cheap 2 Berth Hitop gives you all the camping essentials at an affordable price. The hitop design means you can stand inside the vehicle, there's a 2 burner gas stove for cooking, and a double bed that converts to the seating area during the day. It's automatic with cruise control — helpful for those longer highway stretches. This vehicle is tailored for people who want to immerse themselves in the outdoors. The limited interior space keeps you outside exploring rather than lounging inside. You'll need to plan stays at campgrounds with facilities though — this van isn't self-contained, so you'll rely on caravan parks for toilets, showers and other amenities. Go Cheap vehicles are older models of the Cruisin 2 Berth Hitop. You're getting an older vehicle at a cheaper price, but you can still count on the quality for all your camping essentials. Go Cheap is part of Cruisin Motorhomes, so you get their excellent customer service and on-road assistance — great for first-time hirers. Before you leave the depot, plan your first stop. Pick a campground or caravan park with toilet and shower facilities available. | Jack's take A budget-friendly hitop for families who love the outdoors. The rooftop bed can be packed away during travel to give you more headroom when you don't need it. About GoCheap 4 berth Hi-TopJack's takeThis is Go Cheap's budget option for families who want to get outdoors without breaking the bank. The clever bit? The rooftop bed packs away during travel, giving you proper headroom when you're not sleeping. Think of this as a mobile campsite rather than a mobile hotel. You'll cook and sleep in it, but you'll live outside it. Storage is tight, so pack soft luggage and keep it minimal. The vehicle works best with 1-3 adults — four gets cramped quickly. Being older and cheaper means some wear and tear, but Go Cheap keeps their fleet well-maintained. They're part of Cruisin Motorhomes, so the customer service is solid. This works well for first-time families with small kids or couples on a budget who plan to spend most of their time outdoors. Just make sure you hire the table and chairs or bring your own — you don't want to be stuck inside. | Jack's take The Go Cheap Derwent is a spacious, affordable 6-berth option that's perfect for families or groups of 4-6 people. You get separate toilet and shower facilities at budget prices. About GoCheap DerwentJack's takeThe Go Cheap Derwent gives you serious space at budget prices. This 6-berth vehicle works well for groups of 4-6 people or families with more than two kids who want room to spread out without breaking the bank. The standout feature is the separate toilet and shower — something you don't always get at this price point. This makes a real difference on longer trips and saves you hassle when cleaning the van at the end of your hire. With all this interior space, the Derwent works like a mobile hotel. It's genuinely comfortable for week-long trips where you're spending real time inside the vehicle, not just sleeping in it. The trade-off for the lower cost is vehicle age. These Derwent models are typically 4-7 years old, so expect some wear and tear. Go Cheap maintains their fleet well, but you're not getting a brand-new van. First-time travellers do fine in this vehicle, especially groups or families who prioritise space and affordability over having the newest model. Just remember it only has two anchor points for child seats, so maximum two kids needing car seats can travel. One practical tip: book your last campground with a dump point. Getting the vehicle ready for return on your final day makes the whole process smoother. | Jack's take Go Cheap Henty is a great option for a family or small group on a budget — a spacious vehicle with all of the essentials for a weekend away or longer hire. There's a TV in the dining area, perfect for keeping occupied if there's bad weather during the hire. About GoCheap HentyJack's takeGo Cheap Henty is a great option for a family or small group on a budget — a spacious vehicle with all of the essentials for a weekend away or longer hire. There's a TV in the dining area, perfect for keeping occupied if there's bad weather. Remember to bring DVDs. The spacious size means the Henty is great for longer trips, offering more storage options than 2 berth models. We'd recommend this vehicle to first-time families with two small children who want a large vehicle at an affordable cost. The trade-off? The Henty is an older model with an average age of 4-7 years. Small scrapes or scratches on the furnishings and outside can be expected, but the vehicle itself is well looked after by the Cruisin Motorhomes team. Cruisin and Go Cheap have the same customer service team, known for excellent service while you're travelling. One tip: get situated with the size of the vehicle and your blind spots before departing the depot. Avoid parking at locations with height limits or low hanging branches on the roadside. | Jack's take The Go Cheap Tamar offers great value for couples or solo travellers on a budget. Fixed rear bed with a real mattress means no daily bed setup. About GoCheap TamarJack's takeThe Go Cheap Tamar is a solid budget pick for couples or solo travellers who want the essentials without the premium price. The fixed rear bed with a real mattress saves you the daily hassle of bed conversion — you just climb in and sleep. This van works well for longer trips because of those budget rates. You get a toilet, shower, and enough space to cook out of the rain. The trade-off is minimal storage space, so pack light with soft luggage that you can stuff into storage compartments after unpacking inside. The Tamar suits travellers who spend most of their time outdoors. You're not getting a luxury lounge, but you get everything needed for a good camping trip. Go Cheap shares support staff with the higher-end Cruisin brand, so customer service is solid if something goes wrong. One key point: you'll need powered sites every second or third night to keep the house battery charged and your devices topped up. Plan your route around powered campsites to avoid getting caught with a flat battery in the middle of nowhere. |
DriveNow's take: supplier |  Julie's takeGoCheap is the budget arm of Cruisin, running an older but well-maintained fleet for travellers who want a campervan without paying premium prices. Good fit if you'd rather spend your money on experiences than on the newest van. About GoCheapJulie's takeGoCheap is the budget brand from Cruisin, and it does exactly what it says on the tin — gets you a campervan for less. The fleet is older than Cruisin's, but it's professionally cleaned and regularly serviced, so you're not giving up reliability to save money. The main thing to know before you book: the vehicles are 4-7 years old (Hitops are from 2017). You won't get the modern comforts of a premium van, but you'll have everything you need for a proper road trip. If keeping costs down matters more to you than driving the newest motorhome on the road, GoCheap is a smart pick. Pickup is straightforward. Outside peak periods it shouldn't take long at all. Do the express check-in beforehand and have your card ready for any outstanding payments — it speeds things up. If something goes wrong on the road, GoCheap's roadside team is available 24/7 for technical issues, accidents or breakdowns. It's a free service on all rentals, and the number's on your vehicle's keychain. GoCheap suits budget-conscious couples, friends and families who are happy with an older van and would rather put their money into fuel, activities and exploring than into vehicle age. If that's you, start with the Derwent 6 berth — plenty of sleeping space, motorhome freedom, and it's built for longer trips without the premium price tag. | Julie's take GoCheap is the budget arm of Cruisin, running an older but well-maintained fleet for travellers who want a campervan without paying premium prices.

Sleeping capacity
How many people the vehicle sleeps. Where the supplier separates them, adult and child places are shown; a child berth isn't big enough for an adult. Seatbelts are a separate number, so check both for a group.
Bed layout
Where each bed is and what kind it is. Some beds stay made up, while others are made from the seating each night; Main bed setup shows which.
Bed sizes
Each bed's length × width in metres. Compare the length with the tallest person travelling, and the width with who is sharing.
The bed types in this comparison:
Overcab bed
A raised sleeping area above the driver's cab. Check the vehicle details for access and any weight limits.
Dinette or lounge bed
The dining or lounge seats convert into a bed. The same space is used for sitting during the day and sleeping at night.
Upper and lower beds
Beds arranged one above the other inside the vehicle. The upper bed may have a weight limit, shown in the vehicle details where confirmed.
Rear bed
A bed at the back of the vehicle. Its position does not tell you whether it stays made up or converts from seating; check Main bed setup for that.
Double bed
One shared bed for two people. Compare the dimensions, as double beds differ in size between vehicles.
More in the handbook: Tips for a good night's sleep
A toilet and shower on board mean you can stay at basic or free campsites without amenities, and skip the night-time walk to a shared block. With a toilet only, you have the essentials; with neither, plan to stay where there are facilities.
An onboard toilet needs emptying at a dump point every few days.
More in the handbook: Emptying the toilet and waste tanks
The fridge's capacity in litres; a range means it depends on the vehicle you're given. A bigger fridge means fewer shopping stops, which matters most for families and on remote stretches.
How the fridge is powered when you're parked affects how long it keeps food cold away from a powered site.
More in the handbook: Using the fridge
Heating or air-conditioning for the living area with the engine off. Many units only run at a powered site, while some heaters run from gas or the house battery, so check what each one needs.
Cab air-conditioning only works while driving. Portable heaters or fans may be included or available to hire.
More in the handbook: Heating and cooling
A fixed bed stays made up, so you can rest at any time without rearranging. A bed made from the dinette or lounge gives you more living space by day, but takes a few minutes to set up each night and pack away each morning.
Some dinette beds can be left made up if you don't need the table.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
Hot water makes showers and washing up easier, especially in cooler months. Without it, you'll heat water on the cooker for dishes.
Where shown, the energy source tells you what the hot water runs on.
Longer vehicles have more room inside but are harder to park in town and need a bigger campsite. A range means it depends on the vehicle you're given.
Ferry fares for campervans are usually charged by length.
More in the handbook: Ferry costs
Clean water for drinking, cooking and washing. A bigger tank means longer between refills, which matters at free campsites without taps. A range means it depends on the vehicle you're given.
How long it lasts depends on how you use it, especially for showers.
More in the handbook: Fresh water
How much standing room there is inside. Taller travellers will be more comfortable with more headroom; in low-roof campers most people can't stand upright.
In a combined wet room the toilet sits inside the shower, so the whole room gets wet when you shower. A separate toilet and shower works more like home but takes more space.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
What you can cook on inside the vehicle. The number of burners affects how much you can cook at once, which matters for a group.
Gas cooktops run from an LPG bottle that you refill or swap on the road.
More in the handbook: Using the gas bottle
Used water from the sink and shower collects in the grey-water tank. A bigger tank means fewer stops at a dump point, and some campsites don't let you drain it on the ground.
It's separate from the toilet, which has its own cassette or tank.
More in the handbook: Emptying the toilet and waste tanks
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
Everyone travelling needs their own seatbelt, so this is the most people the vehicle can carry, even if it sleeps more. Some seats are in the living area rather than the cab.
More in the handbook: Will I need multiple vehicles?
Child seats need suitable seat positions and anchor points, and some positions only take a booster. The combination shown is what the supplier allows, so check it covers every child's age and size.
Child seats are usually hired from the supplier as an extra.
More in the handbook: Child seat hire
How you can play music, connect a phone and watch a screen. A screen doesn't guarantee TV reception or DVD playback, and listed USB ports may not charge every device quickly.
Where it says some models, it isn't guaranteed in every vehicle of that model.
More in the handbook: Using the TV or screen
How wide the vehicle is affects narrow country roads, standard car parks and tight campsites. A range means it depends on the vehicle you're given.
Multi-storey car parks, drive-throughs and some bridges have height limits, so know your vehicle's height before you set off. A raised-roof height, where shown, applies when the roof is lifted while parked.
More in the handbook: Vehicle height awareness
A reversing camera makes parking a large vehicle much easier, because you can't see directly behind most campers. Some models means only some vehicles in the fleet have one, so you may not get it.
With a walk-through you can move between the cab and the living area without getting out, which is handy in rain or at night. Without one, you step outside to get from one to the other.
A solar panel tops up the house battery during the day, which helps run the lights and fridge away from a powered site. How much it adds depends on the panel, the weather and how much power you use.
More in the handbook: Battery and solar
How the vehicle is powered when parked. At a powered site everything runs; off-grid, the house battery and any solar run the lights, fridge and charging.
Not every appliance works from every source: air-conditioning and microwaves usually need mains power.
More in the handbook: What works off-grid
Cab air-conditioning or heating makes long drives more comfortable. It runs with the engine, so it doesn't cool or heat the living area when you're parked; see Heating & cooling when parked.
The supplier's age range for this model. You're given one vehicle from within it, so Up to 2 years means it has been on the supplier's fleet for no more than about two years, 4+ years means at least four, and 4–7 years means between four and seven.
Newer vehicles generally show less wear and are more likely to have recent equipment. Older vehicles have usually covered more kilometres, which raises the chance of a breakdown. Older fleets are often the budget option, and a well-maintained older camper can still suit a trip.
Suppliers count age differently. Some count time on their fleet, others go by model year, so treat a one-year difference as approximate.
More in the handbook: How likely are breakdowns?
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
In many smaller campers the table becomes the bed, so once the bed is made there's nowhere inside to sit and eat. A separate table matters on rainy days, or when someone wants to sleep while others are still up.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
A table and chairs make it easy to eat and relax outside, which helps most in smaller campers. Some suppliers include them; others hire them out per trip, so check before comparing prices.
More in the handbook: Equipment you can hire
An outdoor or slide-out cooker keeps cooking smells and heat out of the living area, which helps in warm weather and in small campers. Many campsites also have shared barbecues.
Not specified means the supplier doesn't publish this for that model. It doesn't mean the vehicle lacks it.
An outside locker keeps bulky or dirty gear, such as chairs, hoses or wet shoes, out of the living area. Space inside is limited, so soft bags pack more easily.
