Meringue is a beautifully bohemian campervan based in the stunning countryside of the South Downs National Park in West Sussex, just 40 miles from London. With eating and sleeping space for three adults (or children) she is fully off-grid, and has a full-size German composting loo on board. Her solar panels and Calor gas bottle give you the freedom to roam where you wish, offering lighting, heating, hob, oven, electric coolbox and solar shower without the need to plug in anywhere!
With a brand new engine fitted in 2022, this cleverly-designed rolling home is perfectly equipped with everything you need to have a truly memorable off-grid adventure when you take her on the holiday of a lifetime. Meringue is timber-lined and absolutely the perfect snuggly campervan for couples, singles, friends or small families. A Thule bike rack for three bikes is available, and there is loads of storage underneath the bed, and nine drawers that you can access without needing to go outside to get to your stuff. In fact, with a built-in wardrobe as well as the kitchen cupboards and other storage areas, you certainly won’t run out of space for everything you’re taking with you on this trip!
Meringue will take you out into nature, but you won't feel like you're roughing it at all. For outside living, we provide a portable BBQ. Camping chairs and an outdoor table are available if required. Meringue even has everything you need on board to make a Lemon Meringue Pie in her honour.

Conversion Story: Meringue is a converted Renault Master. She was originally used for Spain to UK courier services, so she has seen her share of the European sights, and is undeniably reliable. The 18-month conversion has created a cosy little home that is warm and snug, a bit like being in a log cabin. When the curtains are closed to the world you could be anywhere. Meringue is made up of A LOT of wood, a lot of love and over 3000 screws! The conversion took place mostly in Suffolk, alongside some residential streets in Zone 2 of London. Meringue is equipped with everything you might want or need in daily life, and is ready for any adventure.
