First-Timer's Guide: What's Already in Your Campervan

Planning your first campervan holiday is exciting, but it often comes with a lot of questions. One of the most common is: “What’s already included in the campervan?” At Roam N Roost, we go far beyond the basics. Each of our motorhomes is equipped with premium features, smart technology, and all the essentials to ensure you enjoy a truly luxurious and convenient trip across Scotland.

Whether you're touring the Highlands or attending a festival, our fully equipped motorhomes are designed to help you travel light and explore freely. Here's everything you can expect when hiring one of our campervans for the first time.

Your Home on Wheels

Our motorhomes are selected for their space, layout, and comfort. One of our most popular models, the Mario Rollerteam 746, is ideal for families or groups. It includes:

• A large rear U-shaped lounge

• Dinette with seating and table

• Overcab double bed

• Smart TVs with Avtex HD quality, streaming services like Netflix and Amazon Prime

This means you've got three separate sleeping areas, ideal for families or groups. All beds come with bedding provided—including duvets, pillows, and sheets—so there's no need to pack your own.

A Kitchen That Travels With You

You won’t need to compromise on meals while you're on the road. Every Roam N Roost campervan comes fully stocked with:

Bathroom Features

For added convenience, your campervan comes with an onboard bathroom. It includes:

• Shower

• Wash basin

You'll also receive a towel pack for each traveller, making it even easier to pack light. With these features, you can enjoy more flexibility and comfort wherever you go, even if you're parked away from a campsite.

Ultimate Off-Grid Freedom

Our campervans are truly built for off-grid adventure:

• Upgraded battery chargers – Recharge 4x faster while you drive

No signal? No problem. With Starlink on board, you’re always connected.

Driving and Safety

All our vehicles come with essential driving and safety features to keep your trip smooth and secure:

• Manual gearbox

• Reversing camera
