“Penny Lane was absolutely amazing. The VW camper van was in excellent condition & drove really well through Norfolk & into Suffolk for my birthday weekend. She is very well equipped with camping essentials & the kitchen is great. She was so comfortable to sleep in at night. My nine year old son loved the roof bed! We highly recommend Retro Campers Norfolk. Everything was perfect” - Lauren, September 2019

“Just had a great week with Maggie May (sold by previous owners). She can’t be hurried but she’ll look after you!!!! Thank you Retro Campers for Maggie May - ‘she stole my heart, and that what really hurts’ “ - Richard, September 2019

“Best place ever! My mum and I hired a camper for a festival and they were so kind and helpful and it was so much fun to stay in! Worth every penny. Lovely couple, super kind.” - Luna, September 2019

“If you’re craving a bit of Vintage Van Life then there really is no better company to pick than Retro Campers Norfolk. The fleet of classic VW campervans are fantastic, all gleaming and glistening, ready for the road and the North Norfolk Coastline is a truly gorgeous area, filled with stunning beaches, cosy cafes and lovely walking routes just waiting to be discovered.

Enjoy life out of the fast lane, experience the joyous engine burble as you bumble along the road exploring coast and country, appreciating a slower, more relaxing pace of life.

Mr Blue Sky performed perfectly as a portable beach hut, hide and home and helped create a range of special memories and moments; from eating chips parked up along the Cliff top in (not very) Sunny Hunny with the family, to waking up in the early morning to watch the sunrise from the comfort of the ‘Rock n Roll’ bed. Everywhere you park the beloved bay window turn’s heads and started many conversations with admirers, I was certainly the envy of the campsite turning up with Mr Blue Sky!

Thanks again for a fantastic week away, the website was easy to navigate and the booking system a doodle, the in depth pre-rental briefing helped to prepare for life on the road (as did the video introduction on the website) and being a phone call away for help and advice made for a reassuring and relaxing rental.

Embrace the world of wanderlust for a week or weekend on the road; you won’t regret it. - Max, August 2019

“We are just back from a lovely week in Barbara Ann (sold by previous owners), not the best weather but we still had a great time tottering round the Suffolk coastline and playing board games together in the evenings - we didn’t want to give her back at the end of the week! - Emma, August 2019

“2nd Year in a row. Wow, we loved it again. This time Mr Blue Sky. See you next year ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐” - Alan, July 2019

“Had a brilliant weekend away in Mr Blue Sky - lifelong dream to have a camper even if I did have to give it back this morning!

Lovely couple, professional service, beautiful camper - what more could you ask for! Totally recommend this for a weekend adventure. - Jo, July 2019

“Wow what a fantastic experience. My husband and I hired Penny Lane from Mon 10th June to Fri 14th Jun. We loved her, she is quirky, had everything in her we needed, all compact and easy to use.

Hannah made us a hamper basket with all goodies in which we were grateful for. We loved travelling around in Penny Lane and had many admiring views and smiles.

Thank you so much for making our trip so enjoyable x” - Karen, June 2019

“Just returned from Bank Holiday weekend away with Mr Blue Sky. Very high quality and sympathetic restoration. Great service, overall fantastic experience!” - Jo, May 2019

“Fantastic week with Penny Lane. Beautiful weather exploring the Norfolk Coast...perfect! Great that we could include our little dog Pickle too.” - Debra, September 2018

“Just returned form a trip down memory lane. Had my own van some 30 years ago and enjoyed a few outings in Norfolk with my three boys. Now it was time to recapture those feelings but this time with 3 of my grandsons, one aged 8 and twins just turning 6.

The Retro Team were fantastic from start to finish dealing with various questions and changes to our booking but the star has to be Mr. Blue Sky who was absolutely brilliant. Supplied in immaculate condition and chugged up and down the roads and lanes of north Norfolk without a problem. I had forgotten what fun it is to drive these older vans and the pleasures of a simpler way of living when you holiday in one of them.

What a wonderful few days we had. The boys loved the van from start to finish, especially at night... bedtime was never a problem and they didn't even notice the lack of a TV for 4 days!

Thank you Retro Campers… you put a permanent smile on 3 small boys faces, so much so they have already asked about doing this again next year or if Grandad can buy one, and you made an older person feel young at heart again.

An awesome experience that will live with us forever.” - Clive, September 2018

“We hired Mr Blue Sky and Penny Lane for 3 nights to celebrate our friends 60th birthday. We LOVED all the little touches as well as the stunning condition of the vans over all. Highly recommended, it was excellent!” - Helen, May 2018
