Sam and his team show amazing attention to detail, are meticulous about recording their work and clearly proud of the high standards of their work. I wish I had started with a new conversion done by them ! They installed solar, diesel heater and RIB bed as well as sorting out both the gas and electric installation in my T6.1 which had been installed very poorly. Highly recommended for really top notch service.

Excellent company to deal with, Sam and his team did a great job converting my Transporter T5 to a kombi. Paula was great at helping me choose colours and materials and Sam with suggesting other accessories. Sam also sourced me 3 rear seats which were in excellent condition. Overall really happy and would 100% recommend Hideaway, they completely transformed my van. Pete Jones

Sam and the team did a fantastic job renovating my VW Transporter. They listened to my requirements, offered advice on the “little things” which I hadn’t even considered and the end result is better than I even expected.Just had our first weekend away in the Van and it’s great, can’t wait for our next adventure and that’s all thanks to Hide Away Campervans!

Great service as always from Hideaway!I took campervan into Hideaway as i was having trouble with starting the van on cold morning which they diagnosed as being an issue with the battery which they replaced and solved the issue.I had my van converted by Hideaway just over 2 years ago now and still absolutely love it!5 star - Amazing service and quality conversions

I found Hideaway online and with three quotes I collected for a Rib camper bed install they came back the most reasonable and professional. Within three weeks I had the van in for the job and they were courteous on my arrival, gave me an office area to work whilst I waited and they got to work. As with all campervans there is the unique nuances of fitting in with what’s there. A few problems were encountered but at every stage they explained to me their recommended solution and why and gave me the autonomy to make the decision. We got the bed in with just a mornings work and it was fantastic. They moved my control panels to accommodate the fit and helped sort out a new way to organise the layout. They even held onto my old Campervan bed whilst I sold it online and they allowed the buyer to come pick up. All in all a genuine and professional company who I will go back to again without hesitation for my future upgrades.

I visited Hide away Campers today for Sam to take look about replacing the pop top roof on my T5 and was very honest and said that I really did not need one yet. Would be back when needed because Sam seemed very knowledgeable and honest.

I had a solar panel fitted, Sam told me about the different ones and what they did, asked me how I will be using my van to see what the best one for me was. Sam and his team have a wealth of experience and knowledge. If I have any problems or would like other upgrades to my campervan, I will be coming here again. Professional, honest and work done in good time.

I would not hesitate to recommend Hide Away Campervans. They addressed all the problems I had with a pop top roof and it was done in a timely manner and at a fair price. And they are a great bunch with an amazing dog :)

Sam and his team are simply superb. Very friendly, helpful, knowledgeable and above all professional service at a price that I couldn’t better anywhere in the South of England. I’m not sure how they do it but all power to their elbows!And if you need after sale service, once again nothing seems to be too much trouble.

Would highly recommend this company to convert your camper van. Sam and the team made a outstanding job of the conversion. Great communication throughout and was converted in good time.

We are absolutely delighted with both the experience and results of getting our T6.1 converted to a camper van with Sam and the team at Hide Away. Sam was brilliant throughout offering completely honest opinions and advice from what type of VW Transporter we should look for, to every aspect of all the fixtures and fittings we included in the conversion. The quality of product and craftsmanship is excellent and we can’t wait to start the adventures in our completed van. Excellent value for money and with Sam’s guidance, a quick and easy process for the conversion.

I spent a lot of time researching campervan conversion companies along the south coast, having had a bongo converted years before I knew what quality I was looking for. When I discovered hide away campers I was immediately impressed with Sam and his attention to detail and brilliantly designed Matterhorn conversion. Now having completed the journey of Sam and his team transforming our T6.1, I can honestly say he has gone above and beyond to deliver a camper of our dreams with great attention to detail. Sam has been on hand all the way through the process and been upfront and transparent on costs. We're thrilled with the end result and looking forward to the many years of adventures to come! Thank you Sam and team.

From start to finish the communication with Sam was excellent, he was very helpful in advising us without being pushy and helping to chose all the different options that we wanted and trust me there was quite a few 😁. The after service has been great too as we were new to campervanning there were quite a few questions and he will always answer your calls or texts. The quality of the workmanship from the guys was excellent and I would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone thinking of having either a full conversion or just some add ons to their vehicle.Thanks again chaps, no doubt you will be seeing us again whenever we need something doing.RegardsJason
