Meet “Leigh,” a beautifully bespoke, hand-crafted Fiat Ducato van conversion, lovingly built during the COVID-19 lockdown with the intention of becoming my own personal sanctuary. With some time on my hands and a passion for travel and exploration, this van was professionally transformed into a self-contained home on wheels, designed to embrace the beauty of the open road, all the while providing a sense of comfort and ease. “Leigh” became more than just a vehicle; he was a companion in my journey to explore the UK’s stunning landscapes. From the tranquil beaches of Cornwall and cascading waterfalls of Wales to the rolling moorlands of the Peak District and lush woodlands of Dartmoor, “Leigh” has taken this kiwi lass to some of the most breathtaking spots across the UK. Each journey opened the door to new experiences, offering breathtaking views and unforgettable memories. Having lived in and loved every inch of this space, I can confidently say, although I will be sad to see him go, that “Leigh” is ready to provide the same sense of adventure and freedom to its next owner.
