Testimonials

Recently our swift Elegance annual service was undertaken at Gurney Slade and as always completed professionally, but for us equally important is the friendly manner of all the staff we come into contact with. We have used Caravan Repairs South West for many years, firstly with a Motorhome now our caravan and can recommend them without reservation.
Cliff and June

Excellent repair work done on our motor home. The damp they found was unbelievable. It had been hidden and bodged by some unscrupulous persons. The attention to detail was second to none. Thoroughly recommend. Thank you guys
