Berty

Description of Beds: Berty sleeps 2 adults with ease and has plenty of wiggle room with the fixed double bed and extra flare on the side of the van. Description of Seating: The living area can take 3 people when both captains' seats are turned, for that time when you have a friend visiting. The table at the window is a great space to have dinner, play cards or just chill with views out of both side windows. The window at the dining table opens. There's a sturdy pop up table attached to the worktop which can be used for dining too. Once both seats are turned round, pushed back and stealth mode is activated, this really opens up the area. The projector screen can be then used for those Netflix and chill kinda vibes. The projector can also be used in the sleeping area if you want to move the movie night over there . The van has a large hanging wardrobe & 7 overhead storage cupboards with sectional, dimmable lighting for every mood.
