Full service history
This stylish, low-mileage camper is thoughtfully designed to be practical and fully off-grid, whilst feeling open, spacious and homely. Whether you want to be a full-time van lifer, a part-time explorer or use it for rentals, this van, with the option of hook-up and plenty of storage for gear, ticks all the boxes with its cleverly arranged layout.
Created to be a functional space, moving around in the van is easy. The door from the cab allows for easy access into the living area; avoiding having to ‘get out to get in again’. Essential features are brilliantly designed but easily accessible. The top of the bulkhead door houses a table which comes out and has screw-in copper legs stored in easy-reach behind the passenger seat whilst the bottom of the door has a bespoke map holder.
The passageway leads to the comfortable and vibrant living area, with durable botanical wallpaper giving it a unique and calming feel. Whether the van door is open with sun streaming in, or you’re tucked up in a rainstorm with droplets pelting the large window, the comfy sofa is perfect for soaking up the views whilst working, dining or snuggling down with a good book. In good weather, the living space is easily extended by unrolling the large awning and taking the table outside.
The kitchen is well equipped and raring to go, with an 80L fridge freezer; two-ring gas hob; Thetford duplex oven and grill; a large stainless-steel sink and hot/cold mixer tape. The woodchip worktop has been sealed with epoxy resin to create a quirky textured surface – large enough to whip up a sumptuous feast or perhaps bake a cake! There is also ample storage for pots, pans and pantry items in the drawers and overhead cupboard.
The bathroom is very well kitted-out. It has a composting toilet which, when off-grid, is super convenient for environmentally disposing of waste (much more so than a chemical cassette). The toilet unit uses Kilderwick components, with a vent and small fan that draws any unwanted odours outside! The shower has a hot/cold mixer tap which is great for warming up after a cold swim or getting ready to start the day. The bathroom also has a roof vent, shower caddy for toiletries, and a long mirror on the inside door.
The fixed bed is comfortable and spacious and the windows in the back of the van give you a wonderful feeling of being emersed in nature from under your duvet! Running down the side of the bed are deep lockers with multiple layers of storage, and along one side are three overhead cupboards; the small one containing the fuse box and trip switches for easy access. There is additional storage underneath the bed, and a wardrobe between the living and bathroom spaces, all meaning that it’s easy and convenient to stow things without clutter in your main space.
Finally, underneath the bed platform is a large and roomy ‘garage’ area to store all your essentials, as well as all the non-essential-but-fun adventure gear you want to bring with you. The space comes with two grey stacking boxes that make up the ‘spare’ bed, leaving ample room for all other kinds of leisure and activity items.
This van is the product of years of love, attention and care; taking me to brilliant places and helping me meet fantastic people all over the UK and Ireland. It’s beautifully kitted out and I’m excited to know that it will be having more great times in the hands of its next owner.
