Great experience with Darren
We received great service from Darren, and also Dave, at Redline in Daventry. We were new to campervans and had MANY questions, and they were happy to indulge us, including talking through the optional extras, several of which we had added to our chosen T6.1 Redline Sport (including extra speakers in the back; this wasn't even on the standard options list), which was ready for collection when promised.
The conversion seems great quality and with a focus on doing things properly and safely with quality components, which gives us peace of mind.
Before collection we were sent a bespoke handover video showing the various features of our van and now to use them - incredibly helpful. And the Redline website resources contains lots of very useful information.
We are looking forward to our first weekend trip in the van. It's reassuring to know that Darren and colleagues will be there for future servicing, upgrades and questions.

Thank you for your excellent review, and for your kind words about Darren and Dave. We shall be sure to pass these on to them both.
It's amazing to hear about the great service you received. We're so glad all of your questions were answered, and appreciate there can be a lot to discuss. We're also glad to hear your handover video and our website resources were useful too.
It's great to hear your thoughts on the quality of the conversion and that you recognise how committed we are to doing things properly.
We wish you an amazing first weekend away in your camper, and can't wait to hear all about it.
Looking forward to seeing you again for servicing. However, we are here if you have any questions in the meantime.
Great service from a great team
We have been getting our caravans from this company since we started caravanning 24 years ago and we would never go anywhere else.
We paid a deposit for a caravan on a Sunday and asked if we could collect it on Friday. Dave Webb said it would be a push but he'll talk with the servicing team. We received an email on Thursday to say that the van would be ready for collection the next day.
What great service from a great team 😊

Thank you for such a fantastic review. We are honoured to have had you as a customer for the past 24 years and it makes us so happy to hear you wouldn't go anywhere else.
We understand how hard it can be to wait for things, so we couldn't have possibly made you do that! It was our pleasure to get your caravan turned around so quickly.
Wishing you plenty of happy holidays in your new caravan, and looking forward to hearing all about them.

After some considerable time deciding whether to purchase campervan, we found venture caravans by chance. They have provided a professional service and answered all our questions efficiently and easily.
Darren was very friendly and helpful. All the staff are extremely helpful and friendly.
It was a very positive experience and would highly recommend them.

Experienced and friendly staff
The whole team were excellent and helpful. We dealt with Darren who made sure we had all the time we needed to make a decision, no high pressure selling. Just competent, honest advice which for Campervan newbies, is just what we needed. We are delighted with the van we have chosen and will definitely look at Venture first when it comes round to replacing it.

Thank you for your 5* review. It's amazing to hear how excellent and helpful you found our whole team, and equally amazing to hear how satisfied you are with the service you specifically received from Darren.
We love that you recognise you had all the time you needed to make a decision, and that you feel you received competent and honest advice. That's a great way of describing everything we set out to provide to our customers.

Thank you for your 5* review! We're so pleased to hear you've received great service from all our staff again.
These guys do it right!
From the moment that we walked into the compound to view, to today, (pickup day) we have felt like part of a family!
Throughout the buying process, while waiting for optional extras to be filled and even purchasing accessories, everyone has been so helpful and more importantly, happy to help.
We are confident that we have made the right decision to buy a Redline Camper and look forward to many happy years as part of their community.
A massive shout out to Darren Lindemann for all of his help & advice, not forgetting his recommendation for a great place to go and have a thinking lunch 😀.

We hope you have many, many enjoyable trips away in your new campervan, and feel free to send us pictures and tell us where you've taken it!
Excellent service
Bought our beautiful camper from new from Mark at his Daventry branch
Sold her back to them as cash sale at a very fair price .was .so nice when we arrived on forecourt to be greeted by Mark who remembered our names.
We reluctantly let her go as we are getting older and struggling a bit with no loo etc
Need something bigger I think.
Also we have been left a property in fuerteventura so we are there alot now as we r retired .so we are not getting the use off her
If we do decide to buy a bigger van we would definitely buy from Mark and team
Sorry the guy who done paperwork etc was excellent. Can't remember your name . so she's gone now .but hopefully will give joy to another family . So once again thankyou you team .sure we will see you guys again x tod and jayne Hardy xx

Thank you so much for your excellent review. We are so pleased to hear how happy you are with the service you received from Mark.
It's a shame that you were no longer getting the use of your campervan. However, we would love to welcome you back if you decide to buy something bigger. Until then, we hope you enjoy your trips to Fuerteventura.
Thanks again!

Great service
We recently purchased a Bailey Unicorn Vigo from Venture Caravans in Hitchin and the whole experience was great. We were able to take our time viewing the caravans we were interested in and we didn't feel pushed into making a decision. All staff were very friendly and helpful and a full and detailed handover was given along with a recorded version so that we can refer back to it when needed. I would definitely recommend them for their great service.

Thank you so much for your excellent review and for sharing your positive experience, Beverly. It's amazing to hear you were able to take your time, and you weren't pushed into making a decision; that's exactly the sales experience we strive to provide.
We're also so pleased that you found the video handover to be useful. Our team put a lot of time and effort into these, as they know how valuable they are to customers, so it's great that you agree.
Thank you so much for recommending us to others, too; that really means a lot!

Our new Bailey Unicorn
Outstanding service from start to finish. Dave was so professional and personal with the exchanging of our caravan. Nothing was to much trouble.
This also applies to the workshops where we have had previous experience.
We would not hessite to recommend Venture Caravans.

Extremely positive experience
Very lucky to have stumbled upon Venture Caravans. We recently bought our first vw campervan. We couldn’t believe in what excellent conditions the van was. We had been looking for over a year for it and the moment we saw this van we knew we had to get it or we would have lost it.
Steph was excellent, knowledgeable, helpful but not pushy or intrusive.
We also had the pleasure to meet Mia, who was extremely sweet.
Thank you again!

Thank you for your excellent review after purchasing your first VW campervan.
It's amazing to hear how pleased you are with the vehicle you purchased and the service you received from Steph. Our campervans don't hang around, so we hear that a lot! We're pleased you chose us after looking for over a year.
We hope you have many enjoyable adventures in your new campervan!
An excellent establishment for sales and servicing.
We have been dealing with Hitchin Caravans since 2016 and are now on our second motorhome purchased from them. I cannot rate them highly enough. For our recent purchase we initially dealt with Matt and then moved to Steph after handover. The handover itself was excellent- clear in person instructions from Harry with video back ups. Since then we have had minor issues with warranty work which have been dealt with by Steph very quickly and efficiently. Nothing is ever too much trouble. Issues with the cab battery and liaison with Ford was carried out on our behalf. I read of issues other Bailey owners have had with their dealerships and I am thankful that I am dealing with Venture! We also use Peter and gang for servicing, which is also an excellent service.

An amazing and enjoyable start to buying our first Motorhome
We met with Dave Webb of Venture to look around a Burstner B66 594 TD Motorhome. This was our first time looking to purchase a Motorhome. It was a straightforward, smooth and enjoyable experience. From viewing and deposit to final purchase and handover day (4 weeks) we were supported by him by email and phone in addressing all our questions and requests. If Dave wasn't available, his colleagues were equally knowledgeable and helpful.
