Dolly's Press Release

Cruise the UK Aboard the Dashing Dolly VW

Holidaymakers across Europe are being offered a unique opportunity to explore the country’s most beautiful beaches and stunning countryside locations as Eastbourne Holiday Campers launch Dolly, a 21st century VW.

From March, keen explorers will be able to hire the brand new 2010 VW Camper Van from Eastbourne Holiday Campers based in the country’s sunniest place and tour the best locations around the UK and further into Europe in a real retro inspired vehicle.

The brand new model, currently the only UK van available for hire with power-assisted steering, offers the most reliable option for a VW camper holiday allowing tourists to create their very own room with a view aboard a fun and iconic camper.

Eastbourne Borough Council Cabinet Member for Tourism, Cllr Susan Morris said “We are extremely excited to have Eastbourne Holiday Campers set up in Eastbourne and offer a unique option for holidaymakers looking for a break with a difference. The vans are very fun and mean that visitors have the freedom to explore a range of locations, not only here in the south east but further afield too, with many living the dream inspired by the VWs of the 60s and 70s. With such a strong portfolio of accommodation options here on the Sussex coast, the new camper van hire adds another dimension to our product and another reason for new visitors to make a trip to Eastbourne!”

Eastbourne Holiday Campers will be introducing the blue dashing Dolly from March this year, sleeping up to four passengers, with plans to introduce further vans throughout the year and they are already taking bookings from excited campers.

Whether holidaymakers are 25 or 75, the camper vans offer a great sense of freedom and well-being and come equipped with bike racks, awning, bed linen, and towels, everything the budding explorer needs.

David Irvine, owner of Eastbourne Holiday Campers said “As busy people ourselves, also running our holiday cottage business through eastbourneholidaycottages.co.uk, we realise how important a holiday is and our VW hire offers the perfect opportunity to get away from it all. Once our guests drive off in Dolly we are confident they will have a stress-free, relaxing and fun holiday.”

The VWs will also be members of the Camping and Caravan Club and holiday packages can be tailor made depending on where visitors would like to go, with advice given on campsites and attractions in the chosen destination.

Based in the East Sussex resort of Eastbourne, budding campers must visit the seaside destination to collect their VW before setting off on their own adventure. Whether staying within the south east and hopping from one seaside town to the next, travelling cross country to the more mountainous terrain of the Peak District, or over the channel for a European getaway; Eastbourne offers inspiring choices for an unforgettable week with endless possibilities.
