Latest News
We’ve already planned our holidays!
The skies are getting lighter, the vaccine is getting further!…..soon it will be summer! We may not want to fly around the world but…..this is on our doorstep! If you’re thinking of buying a camper this year, make sure you’re happy with the dealer as well as the camper! Your always welcome to ask our recommendations on camping locations.
February – it’s hotting up!
Well.., even though 2020 was our busiest year ever, we’ve already doubled our January orders over 2020! Putting our winter stock in place proved a wise decision. We also have a number of new build campers still in the factory. We’re seeing customers, taking an early decision to either buy from stock, or to place a new build order now, in readiness for a summer delivery.
Most customers are saying that they don’t want to wait until Spring and then find that they can’t get hold of a camper before September.
We are offering some interesting options to delay payments and delivery during the lockdown, so if you are intending to have a camper for summer, why not give us a call. We’re proud of our COVID measures and record and we can still offer ‘The Bridgewater Difference’ experience, with the wonders of today’s technology. If you want a camper for summer, we’re ready
What our customers say...
Wow – what fabulous guys!
From the first meeting with John in the early summer sun, sipping a coffee under the awning of a camper van, it was clear their passion and knowledge for all things campervans was fantastic.
Nothing has been too much trouble for John and Pete, and I have been a very fussy customer!!
I would highly recommend using Bridgewater Campers for a fabulous service where you are not hit with any hard sale, just with genuine, helpful and knowledegable advice and assistance.
Thank you so much John and Pete

They really go above and beyond
The van is perfect - we're so thrilled with it. I've also learnt a huge amount throughout the process, which is really useful and testament to the time the guys have invested in answering my endless questions!
Nothing has been too much trouble, and the end result was well worth the wait during their busiest period. The aftercare since delivery has been excellent. Both John and Pete are friendly, great fun and always just a phone call away. They really go above and beyond.

Blown away by John and Pete!
They very quickly understood what our needs were, for example whether the van could be manoeuvred up and down our drive comfortably. Talk about going the extra mile! They came out twice from Sale to Prestwich to check this out despite our not having made any commitment to buy a van at that time.
Since we bought our Vivante which we are delighted with, Pete and John have given freely and generously of their time to help us.

John and Pete are an absolute pleasure to spend time (and money!) with.
I was lucky enough to find Bridgewater Campers, as a campervan novice, via a web search. I met John when he offered to come out of an evening and explain it all to me. He answered all my questions, let me borrow a couple of stock vans for a test drive and a test sleep(!) and listened, while I dithered. Before I knew it, a couple of weeks later, I had bought one!
I am looking forward to summer music festivals, without the packing and lugging kit across fields, and somewhere to escape to when the heavens open! To be followed by adventures further afield I am sure. A big thankyou to John and Pete.

Two of the nicest gents I’ve ever met!
Their sales approach is a credit to them..., no pressure, answered lots of questions, gave me really sensible advice and have even recommended a few campsites.I was collected from the local station, taken on a 'magical test drive' and had the best coffee made for me! Nothing was too much trouble.
Thanks so much guys - I'll be back soon for John to wax and polish the camper again.....he does a great job!

We loved your ‘no pressure’ sales approach
I remember very well when we turned up with the objective of only viewing campervan options,......and then 4 hours later we had bought one!
Your conversational sales approach really is special and not high pressure....it certainly worked for us.
Nothing was too much for you despite some of our challenging questions! You always go the extra mile and apart from us being thrilled with our purchase we have learnt so much from you both that will help us in our new life on the road.
Thank you both for helping us through the big decision, and making it easy for us to make the right decision. I congratulate you both for the brilliant customer care we have enjoyed both during the initial meeting and subsequently.

Thanks for the professional service
We think your website and the info about the van was excellent. We are very happy with the price and speed of your service and payment and hope you are able to get your asking price.
We truly hope it goes to a good home and the purchasers get as much pleasure from it as we did.

Wonderful Service – Thanks
Buying a camper van was a long held dream and a huge investment for us and you made the whole process so easy.
It was very reassuring to know that you were always available to answer our questions, give us options and explain things to us.
Our van is perfect and we have enjoyed it so much this year.
We would recommend Bridgewater Campers to anyone thinking of making a purchase.
Best wishes
