Here’s what a few of them have to say about their experiences with us...
"A really good experience with great customer care and a very helpful team. Wish I was treated with the same attitude by other sales people." A Steel, Essex (Herald Squire)
"Our thanks to Paul, Jenny and the crew at Choose Leisure for our hassle free caravan transaction. We received a truly helpful and friendly service and they all did exactly what they promised they would. We will highly recommend Choose Leisure to everyone. Thanks again. Laurie and Sandra, Essex (Swift Fairway)
"I have twice had to have work carried out to my Rapido 9096F. Having owned Campers and Motorhomes since 1976, I have experienced some good companies and some dreadful. I am delighted to say my experience at Choose has been first class. I now live in Denmark for longish periods and the help given by Jools and service engineer Chris has made repairs much easier. I had phone calls to let me know the progress with my heating and water boiler problems and kept totally informed. They gave me dates to work to and never failed me. I wish Paul and the team all the very best in their new premises." Steve Smith, Denmark & Ashford (Rapido 9096F)
"Thanks you Choose leisure, and to Paul and all the team, we bought and sold our Motorhome from choose leisure and the service was way and above average from other firms dealt with, First class, honest and reliable there is nothing I can add to what others have said before me. I hope they grow from strength to strength. We will hope to use them again soon." Brian Gawler, Kent (Autotrail Arapaho)
“Thank you for your quick and efficient service in the sale of our Camper Van.” Mr Eaves, Kent (Compass Avantgarde 100)
"Choose Leisure sold our Autosleeper Duetto for us in record time, and we can't speak highly enough of the friendly efficient way everything was handled! They are a pleasure to do business with, and we would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to buy or sell! THANK YOU CHOOSE LEISURE !!!!" A&B Corby, Kent (Autosleeper Duetto)
"We have just bought our Avantgarde motorhome from Choose Leisure and we were very impressed with all aspects of the sales and service we received from Martin, Wayne and all the staff. We spent several weeks looking for our motorhome and on our visits to Choose we were given help and info but never felt pressured. We made up our minds and the paperwork, habitation tests, tax and MOT were all sorted. After we collected our motorhome we did have a leaky window and had to return twice but all the staff could not have been more helpful and we are now looking forward to a very happy retirement in our lovely motorhome. Thanks Choose!! Dave & Phil Longley, Kent (Compass Avantgarde 100)
"Excellent Company with professional service. We sold our motorhome via brokerage in less than a week. GOOD COMMUNICATION THROUGHOUT. R James, Tenterden, Kent (Autocruise Augusta)
"We took our Peugeot Boxer Autosleeper in for a service, habitation check and examination of ignition problem. From the first telephone conversation with Jools, to the handover and very detailed explanations of works done by Pete, we felt very well looked after. It has restored our faith in the motorhome business after some very poor service at another dealership! Very many thanks to all your very professional and cheerful team-we will have no hesitation in recommending you in the future." Julie Adam, Kent (Autosleeper Executive)
"Usually when you buy a NEW motorhome you get fantastic customer attention and when you come to sell it a total lack of interest, but with Choose Leisure we got fantastic support in selling our motorhome, for a higher price than the original dealer offered us and much more and no hassle. Nice company to do business with!" Martin Kulin, West Sussex (Burstner 821i)
"Big thanks to the Choose Leisure folks. So good in this day and age to deal with people who you can both trust and also feel able to recommend to others. Big Big vote of thanks. Can't believe the process would be so simple and hassle free." Nick & Nikki, Norfolk (Burstner Aviano i684)

"We would just like to thank Paul and the team for a very efficient sale and prompt payment. It is not easy in these times to sell a top of the range motorhome but Choose Leisure made it a totally pain free experience. We would have no hesitation in recommending them." Gordon & Carole, Kent (Concorde Charisma)
"This is certainly the way to sell your motorhome. None of the hassle which can come with a private sale and Chooseleisure are the people to do it for you. Spoke to Paul a couple of times before driving to Canterbury from France. Van had to be MOTd but was not ready for collection before our booked time to return to France. Paul and his team collected it for us and sold it in a matter of weeks. Can't recommend them enough." Peter & Linda Gardner, France (Hymer B700)
"We were very happy with the way our motor home sale was handled, would recommend 'Choose Leisure' to anyone who wants a hassle free sale." John & Zillah, Kent (Autohomes Windfall)
"Paul and Jenny provide the most amazing service - flying to the south of France to collect our motor home and then driving it back to the UK. We cannot fault their efficiency and feel we have made new friends. We hope they may visit us again even if we have nothing to sell except our Gite for a holiday! Oh and 'Peggy' sold within a week! Thank you to you both and all your team." Mike& Jo in the Ariege, France (CI Pegaso)
"A big thanks to Paul and all the team at Choose Leisure for the speedy and efficient sale of my motorhome. After failing to sell on ebay, I took the plunge and travelled down to Canterbury from Cheshire, but it was well worth the drive, Paul rang just one week later and said he had found a buyer, absolutely amazing!!!! If you need to sell your motorhome give Choose Leisure a call. K Fish, Northwich, Cheshire (Burstner 748)

"After being treated very badly by ********** over the last two years it has been refreshing to deal with such a professional company as yours. I had virtually given up hope of getting the blind repaired on my one year old Rapido until you stepped in and demonstrated such a high standard of customer care. Thank you. I sincerely wish you and your company the best of luck in the future. The motor home world needs businesses like yours."
"This was our first motorhome service and we were very happy with everything about it. The customer care was outstanding, we were updated on progress and problems found were dealt with efficiently. We'll certainly be returning for next year's service." P Jones & P Phillips, London (Orian Zeta)
“We were very impressed by the friendly service and just how quickly the 'van was sold.”
“We were sad to sell our motor-home but we were pleasantly surprised at the ease in which you made the transaction for us. From the time we brought the van to you and agreed the price you would give us on its sale, we were happy to leave it all to you. You kept us fully informed of any developments and we were impressed with the friendly helpfulness we received from any of your team whenever we called in or phoned. It really was a pain-free experience. Thank you.”
"Your cheque for the sale of our motorhome arrived this morning. Thank-you for a very quick service. Good luck in the future and I would have no hesitancy recommending your company."
“We are very pleased with everything about our new camper van, especially as we have got an average of 40 miles to the gallon; a great deal better than the old van at 25 mpg. We expect it will serve us well over the coming years & we would like to thank you for your excellent service. The Internet is amazing!”
“Having bought and sold boats before, brokerage wasn’t a new concept to us and it worked brilliantly for selling our motor home too – it sold really quickly. We loved the fact that we didn’t have to worry about advertising, cleaning or servicing the van and avoided dealing with timewasters and strangers coming to the house. Choose Leisure is Paul’s own business and he really went the extra mile. The forecourt and vehicles are well-kept, the business is always open, the phone is always answered directly and we were kept in touch throughout. We think that brokerage is a superb way to sell motor homes and would use Choose Leisure every time.”

"Fantastic" Service 10/10 ! we purchased our three year old Rapido 9090df 4 berth motorhome in October and after travelling down to the showroom which took us 4 hours after traffic and road works we arrived at CHOOSE LEISURE and what a surprise we both had , they are so friendly and made us feel very relaxed, after all we were going to spend a fair amount of well earned funds. Paul and his team are very good at what they do and there was never any pressure to buy and every question we had they answered in the most professional way, they parked the motorhome in a large space and we had all the time we needed to look over the Rapido. We already had an idea what we both wanted and Wayne was so knowledgeable and really helped us . We placed a deposit and off we went , to return a week later to collect our purchase, our Rapido came with a full service, full MOT, taxed, cleaned, and highly polished , with the most entertaining hand over from Steve who had full knowledge and a great passion for the motorhome world. We left so excited and made off to the Canterbury Camping & Caravan club site to trial our new member of our family, everything was great. We would like to thank Paul and his team again for all of their help, we wish them all well for the future and best of luck with their new showroom." Michael & Sharon, Cambs (Rapido 9090DF)
"Thank you choose leisure for the speedy honest service when you sold my hymer motor home paul and the team were helpful and kept me updated all of the way again a big big thank you." Kevin Wadley, Wiltshire (Hymer Swing)
"If you want to sell via 'Brokerage' then there is no easier way. It takes away all the hassle in selling your vehicle. 'Choose Leisure' offered an excellent competitive price and we just sat back and waited for the final call. Super service thanks to Paul, Jenny and staff. Don't hesitate to use 'Choose Leisure'. (No, I don't work for them just a satisfied customer!) Don & Alice, Kent (Autotrail Cheyenne 632)
"A little while ago I asked Choose Leisure to fit me a large Heki rooflight to my 1999 Herald. They where very professional in their dealings with me, and the lady in the shop and Chris kept me up to date and informed of how things where going . When I collected the motorhome which I had not purchased from them, they went all through the instructions saw that I was happy with the work and went through the results of the free damp check. All in all a very caring and conscientious firm with a very high quality of work. I will be using them again for all my service needs and when the time comes will be looking at buying a new van from them." Trevor Pole, Kent (Herald Squire)
"We sold our motorhome through choose leisure recently after a few months of advertising it elsewhere. Throughout the process Paul and his colleagues were supportive, helpful and, as things turned out, true to their word. Thank you." T Maniski, Bedfordshire (Arca M7)
"I am extremely pleased with the service provided by Choose Leisure. I was initially hesitant about using them because of their geographical location compared to mine, but was reassured by several conversations plus the e-mailing of a draft contract to me beforehand. They collected my Autosleeper Symphony free of charge despite the distance, kept me informed of offers & sold it within weeks at the agreed price. The funds were then transferred to my account electronically - all in all, a very professional, efficient & friendly service which I would highly recommend." D Jackson, Staffs (Autosleeper Symphony)
"We purchased an autotrail scout in feb 2011 from choose leisure and the service we got was 1st class, living in glasgow we needed to know that the vehicle was perfect and it was much better than i had seen on the many photos that they e mailed to me. We were collected at gatwick airport and when we arrived at their depot we were warmly greeted by their friendly staff who looked after us very well. Most importantly absolutely everything was in order and we were soon on our way. I would like to thank them all very much and I know we will have many great times to come in our new motorhome." Steve Wilmot, Scotland (Auto Trail Scout)
"Absolutely fantastic service, couldn't have wished for more, we collected our motorhome and drove away for a weeks trial run and had no problems at all. Many thanks to all at Choose Leisure and the sandwiches were a nice touch, Thanks again." Steve & Aileen, Hampshire (Burstner Elegance 821i)

"From being picked up at Gatwick by Paul, right through to driving away our new purchase the whole experience was a joy. The motor home was immaculately prepared and I would recommend Choose Leisure without hesitation going by our experience." Ronald Simpson, Perthsire (Burstner Aviano)
"We are completely new to the business of purchasing a motorhome and needed one urgently. Choose Leisure were extremely helpful when we decided to buy a van that needed maintenance work doing before it left their site and, also, offered a wonderful service for the warranty work that was required after our trip. Just small things that needed attention but nothing was too much trouble. I did mention to them that we would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone thinking of purchasing (or selling) a motorhome and we are only too pleased to comment on this website. The whole experience of their service is absolutely worth a mention and all of the staff we met were courteous and friendly and told us not to hesitate to contact them if we need any further advice or assistance. Congratulations on a business that deserves to be successful." Mandy Carr, Kent (Autotrail Mohican)
"This was our first time in buying a Motorhome... we were not sure what we wanted, but we had a price in mind! We passed Choose Leisure by accident on our way to see some friends.. so we pulled in and had a look around.. We were so glad that we did, because not only was there a wide choice of motorhomes, the people were really helpful and so nice to chat to.. We decided on a Autohome Windfall 4 berth.. we were not looking for anything big, and this fitted the bill exactly, and the price was just right too. The day we went to collect it, we were shown how to use the vehicle etc., and we were put very much at ease. Anyone who is looking for a motorhome, caravan or whatever.. should visit Choose Leisure.. they will not go wrong.. They are a great bunch.. give them a try, you won't be sorry. It just leaves us to say a really big thankyou to you all." Mr & Mrs Clark, Kent (Autohomes Windfall)
"A big thank you to Paul and the team for selling our motor-home swiftly and with no hassle to us. We were concerned about selling privately and with Choose Leisure our dealings with Paul and his team were pleasant with a fair return for our van and trouble free payment I would have no hesitation in recommending their services." L M Harris-Hall, Kent (Elnagh Marlin 650)
"Following the loss of all 12v leisure power in our Autotrail Mohican (12 months old) in central Europe and as we live near to Canterbury we decided to ask for help as we could not face a 150 mile trip to the nearest Dealer. The service we received can only be described as fantastic. It took two days to find the electrical fault and the bill was very acceptable. After 43 years as motor caravanners this is the best service we have ever received. We will use the wide range of services this company offer again." Brian Crowhurst, Kent (Autotrail Mohican)
"We have been delighted with the quality of service and level of customer care we have had when Choose Leisure has been servicing our motorhome. Good advice has been given with regard to options for repairing faults on our vehicle, and as we live overseas, we have very much appreciated that habitation and mechanical work has been completed promptly. We have always been most impressed by, and grateful for, your attention to detail with our vehicle, and concern for the comfort of your customers - a really big thank you to you and all the staff." Mr and Mrs Corbett, Belgium (Compass Cruiser)
"
Been twice and the service offered is first class and
prices very reasonable." Brian Sutton, Kent (Autosleeper Nuevo)
"We were so impressed with the service by ALL the team at CHOOSE LEISURE that we would have no hesitation in recommending your services." R Geddes, Kent (Sprite Firebrand 600)
“We used Choose Leisure to sell our motorhome for us because we were nervous about advertising and selling it ourselves, in particular about having to take payment of a large amount of money from a stranger. We felt comfortable knowing exactly where the vehicle was and that it was being kept clean and well presented. We could call in and check up on it whenever we wanted to. Paul was nice to deal with, the return was fair and he kept us informed throughout. All in all we were very pleased with the service and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Choose Leisure to those wishing to sell their vehicle without any of the associated worries.”
