Van de Christopher

Our beautiful classic 1988 VW campervan Frieda is ready and waiting to be your holiday friend and provider, she's in perfect working order after many years of love, care and significant investment! The interior is all original VW autosleeper and she never fails to start. She is also now cruising with an automatic gearbox which makes driving an absolute breeze! In general it's easy to navigate since the width of the van is the same as a normal car and there is no bonnet to worry about.

The front seats are the classic 'captains' chairs, spinning round to create a cosy living room area when the two tables are quickly popped into their floor pockets.

For power you have a 240V hook up in the side with a long cable provided and a brand new leisure battery which supplies power to the 12V lights internally and allows charging of small devices as well as music through the bluetooth stereo when you are parked up and relaxing. The leisure battery recharges as you drive so you don't need to worry about finding places to recharge along your route.

For wining and dining there are all the amenities you will need - 2 ring hob, grill, 3 way fridge, sink and tap connected to the fresh water tank, plentiful storage including all the necessary crockery, pots, pans, utensils. The 3 way fridge has a small freezer compartment and can run on gas, 240v electric or 12v electric.

Sleeping is very comfortable with a double bed on the bottom that comes from the original rock and roll bed that slides down into position from the rear seats. For sleeping in the hi-roof you simply slide a panel across and then use the little ladder to get into the cosy space up top. This is suitable for two small people or one large one.

There is an awning which clips to the side of the van to give some additional shade and extend the internal space. Also useful if it's raining! An outdoor table and camping chairs are included along with a crucible style BBQ/fire pit so you can relax comfortably beside the van.

For chillier nights, there is a gas heater in the rear of the van which will make the van nice and toasty. A fully working carbon monoxide alarm and a fire extinguisher will be in the van just in case.

There is a 3 bike rack on the back and a rooftop storage rack which you can strap extra luggage down to if necessary, I can provide the straps for this.

She cruises at 60 mph on the motorway comfortably and will have you smiling as you driving.
