Sandy - LWB Mercedes Sprinter 311 – Full Off Grid 10 days with heater for winter!

The van was originally designed and converted by Greenwood Van Conversions who have done an absolutely beautiful job with extremely thought through attention to detail. It’s a great shame to have to part ways with Sandy, but are hoping it finds a wonderful home!

Painted in Farrow & Ball colours, alongside hand-painted tiles, Roam Slow Studio artwork, Harris fabrics hand sewn in the lake district.
From start to finish we build 3-4 vans a year, all lovingly hand crafted by our team in the Winster valley of the English Lake District.
Create memories, plan adventures and sit around the campfire, all from the comfort of your rolling tiny home.

You can truly adventure in this vehicle and never have the need to plug in or shore up to a caravan park.

On the exterior is the Desert Sand Raptor Paint which is tough and durable, privacy tinted black windows, and the powder-coated roof rack and ladder.
The lower panels are finished in an anti-stone chip Raptor paint to complete the look and longevity.
