Two of the nicest gents I’ve ever met!

I have just purchased my first 'pop top' camper from 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!

A fortuitous meeting!

Pete and John at Bridgewater Campers have steered us successfully to our ideal campervan. We have just taken delivery of a LEISUREDRIVE CRUSADER hi-top, built on our new VW Transporter. It looks great and all our (very detailed and specific) requirements appear to have been met. We are now looking forward to many happy adventures! It was most fortuitous to meet people who know so much and are prepared to share their knowledge and experience (and coffee) (and lifts to the station) (and considerable patience) to make sure that their clients get what they want. THANK YOU!

We loved your ‘no pressure’ sales approach

Both Sue and I are thrilled and excited with our new Vivante. 

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.

Dropped in late Sunday

We called in late Sunday afternoon to look at VW campervans after finding Bridgewater Campers via a google search. John went out of his way to be helpful. He talked to us about the different types of van you could get and all the accessories and took us out for a long test drive in one of the vans. John was very knowledgeable about the product and helped us to decide on the right van for us.

Exporting to Guernsey – Couldn’t have been easier

"Purchasing our new conversion VW Leisuredrive Vivante camper from Bridgewater Campers and exporting it to Guernsey couldn't have been easier! The service we received from day one from Peter and John was outstanding. They were communicative, attentive and knowledgeable. The conversion was completed to a very high standard, we are delighted with our purchase and would have no hesitation in recommending Bridgewater Campers".

Really helpful and informative

I contacted Bridgewater campers about one of the campervans on their website. That one had sold but I was able to arrange a visit to look at another one that day after work. I’m just looking into a campervan purchase for the first time so my knowledge level is low. They were very helpful and talked me through all the options as well as showing me a number of vans so I could get a good feel fit the different layouts. And later followed that up with an email with a load of information and photos about what we’d discussed. Really helpful and informative.

Thanks for the professional service

Once again thank you for you quick and very professional service in buying our Campervan. As you know Susan couldn’t, through ill heath, cope anymore and we are both pleased with the way you have looked after us.

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

Thank you both so much for the wonderful service you provided before, during and after our purchase. 

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

A true pleasure

We found the whole buying experience with John and Pete a pleasure. Having taken us through a number of designs and options we settled on Sidney, our T6 Crusader, and he's already taken us around the whole of the Scottish Coastline. As a treat, we took John and Pete out on J-Peg, our narrow boat, on the Bridgewater Canal.....obviously!

A big thank you to both of you

The support and personal service you guys have given has been overwhelming. My 75th year has been very difficult with my wife's Alzheimers but the Vivante you supplied has made our lives so much easier. We've been out over 40 times, re-living some of our memories whilst we still can. As you know its also helped me fulfil my transsexual life - I felt very comfortable in sharing this 'secret' with you guys. Not everybody is so understanding. I thank you from the bottom of my heart for making the whole buying and after service experience a true joy, and look forward to seeing you again when you collect 'Bella' for her first service.
