The interior has been lovingly converted into a handcrafted and unique campervan that’s practical and stylish, with wood panelling and sage highlights, it’s an oasis of calm for road-trippers.

Martha is a pet friendly campervan and has the cosiest nook for your furry friends to tuck in at night. You’ll be close by at all times in Martha’s comfy double bed for two, but there’s even enough room for one more in the extra single bed, created by converting the seats. Not ready for bed just yet? Well, Martha’s luxurious kitchen, fridge and pull-out table has everything you need to cook up a feast for all, including the dog!

Martha has a portable toilet inside the van, and an optional outdoor tent which can also be used for the solar shower. There’s plenty of storage available so no need to hold back on the packing! After a long day hiking, biking or just taking in the local sites, you can be sure of a warm and cosy spot to come home to with Martha as your camper.

About the Campervan

Description of Beds: Martha can sleep up to three people in one fixed double bed measuring 130 cm x 180 cm, and one single bed which can be made up from the two seats, this measures 150 cm x 60 cm. Description of Seating: Martha has three belted seats in the front (including the driver) with headrests, the two passenger seats are suitable for a child car seat using the belt. Description of Electrical Setup: Martha has 4 x plug sockets and 2 x USB ports in the living area, and an additional 3 x plug sockets and 2 x USB ports elsewhere. Martha can be used fully off grid, but has no electric hook-up. There are 2 x lithium batteries which charge whilst driving, with an 1500 W inverter and 120 W solar panel. About the area: Martha is parked outside our farm house in the quiet village of Altham. Martha is based near to the Ribble Valley and Forest of Bowland Aonb, and is within short distance to motorways for access to M6/M61/M62 which give easy access to the Peak District, Lake District, Yorkshire Dales and North Wales, all great places to visit in a campervan! Parking: A designated parking space in our driveway is available for your car whilst you are using Martha. Collection from a local train station may be available. Cooking Equipment: Martha is well equipped with everything you could need in the kitchen, including a two ring gas hob, kettle, plates, bowls, pans, cutlery, chopping boards, cups, mugs, tea towels, dust pan & brush, cleaning products, kitchen roll, toilet roll, and washing up equipment. Water and Sanitation: Martha has a 60l water capacity, 10l available under the sink, with additional containers stored in the garage. A portable toilet is stored under the seat in the living area, and can be used where it is stored or pulled out for use outside. A pop-up toilet tent and outdoor solar shower can be hired at an additional cost. Audio Equipment: Martha has a radio system in the cab of the van and a Bluetooth speaker is also available. Type of Heating: There is a diesel heater which keeps the van lovely and warm during the colder months. Conversion Story: I had always dreamed of owning a campervan and searched for a while until Martha appeared and it was love at first sight! Her previous owner had her converted by Global Vandemic Campers who did a brilliant job. She is super homely and cosy, with plenty of storage space all packaged into a perfectly sized medium wheelbase van meaning she is still easy to drive and park up in all the best spots!

I highly recommend Martha. Martha had everything we needed for our trip to Cumbria and was exceptionally well laid out. We loved how homely she is and the soft furnishings made a lovely difference to the ambiance, making her seem cosy even though the tail end of Storm Lillian was raging outside! Jenny was wonderfully friendly, accommodating and flexible; she made everything straightforward, communication was great and the in-person handover gave me confidence in driving Martha and using all the facilities. Our little pup took to Martha too and readily made Martha her new (temporary) home! We are 100% satisfied with the experience; in fact, Jenny was so accommodating that the experience exceeded our expectations. We hope to take Martha for another adventure sometime soon!
