3 Belted seats 2 Adult berths

Rigby is a gorgeous camper... she's compact, stylish and beautifully designed to feel airy and spacious. Her owners have pooled their talents in building and fashion design... and it really shows. Rigby is a little beauty! As a compact vehicle you can zip about like driving a car and with her clever layout means you can comfortably spend time in the van when the weather doesn't behave! The sofa extends to a relaxing day bed and further extends to a comfy bed for two.

Rigby has a fresh, light palette, classy furnishings and lovely touches of artwork and decor. Such a relaxing space, which extends outside too... just pull out the awning, camping table and chairs. And when adventure calls, Rigby is ready to play with optional extras like a kayak and stand-up paddle board.

Note: Rigby, like all our compact vans, has a minimum 2 night hire. And, while most of our vans are pet-friendly, Rigby is for human travellers only!

Conversion Story: We moved over from the UK in 2019 and loved exploring. We decided we wanted a small nimble, reliable campervan that can take us around New Zealand, a friend at work decided to sell a van that was originally planned for a conversion which he never got round to. So it was our perfect opportunity and we bought the Nissan Caravan in late 2020 and converted it ourselves. We wanted to create a spacious, modern sleek camper and with our backgrounds - a builder and a fashion designer - we put our skills to the test! - George & Sophie
