Brighton
3 Belted seats
Sleeps 2 Adults
Sleeps 1 Child
Calling all the fabulous pooches and their well-behaved owners! Come on in and take a peak at one of the shiniest stars within our fleet. Located in the sunny seaside town of Brighton, Antares is perfectly positioned for a getaway to the seaside or for whisking that special someone to a countryside escape to the South Downs National Park. Sleeping two adults and one child in a spacious king size bed and containing 3 belted seats in the front, there is plenty of room for the whole gang. Antares’s owners have perfectly meshed together rustic country style living with a modern flare, creating a warm, inviting and romantic atmosphere.
With a kitchen fit for Mary Berry herself, Antares has been fully-kitted out with family feasts in mind. Not only does Antares benefit from a double gas stove, he also has an oven too. This means after a long day of building sandcastles and splashing in the sea, you can decide whether to cook a 3 course meal or simply throw in an oven pizza. There’s also a refrigerator for you to store fresh ingredients and keep your drinks cool. Why not invite a friend round to join you for dinner? Antares’s dining area has been designed to seat 4, making it the ideal space for a games night or happy hour cocktails.
Antares is prepared for off-grid adventures, so you can park right on the beach if you’d like to and still have everything you need to feel at home. Including solar power and an outside shower so you can wash off any sandy feet and paws before settling in for the night. What more could you need?

About the Campervan
Description of Beds:
Antares sleeps three people, two adults and one child, comfortably in a 170cm wide x 183cm long bed. We supply clean sheets, bedding including pillows and blankets for your stay - so you can easily jump on the train with your holiday bags!
Description of Seating:
Three belted seats in the drivers cabin (including driver) with headrests. Three - four people can comfortably sit around the dinner table, so why not invite a guest for tea and enjoy the views from the back of the van.
Description of Electrical Setup:
Antaras is designed to be completely 'off grid' and self-sufficient, there is no mains hookup. Two 130ah leisure batteries provide power throughout the vehicle. These are charged by the van when in motion via the split charge relay and from the 315 W solar panel unit on the roof the rest of the time; all controlled by the Victron 1000 W Inverter. The cabin benefits from two double plug sockets with USB's, plus a double USB socket in the main cabin and a double USB in the driver's cabin.
About the area:
Antares lives in Brighton, a well-known coastal town known for it's party atmosphere and music gigs. It is also the perfect location for access along the south coast, towards Dorset, Devon & Cornwall, a short ferry ride to the Isle of Wight and a gateway to the English Channel and Mainland Europe via ferry.

Extra Information:
Antares is a handcrafted, custom built campervan with a unique country home style. It was renovated to a high specification as a one-off project and we fell in love with him the first time we saw him! We are really pleased to share our lovely van with you and welcome any feedback that could help make him more comfortable and enjoyable.
Please return our van as you found him - by cleaning inside and out and filling up the water and diesel tank. We supply gas, please let us know if you change over the canister, so we can ensure the spare is full for people who use it next.
We welcome any questions, please get in touch :)
