The interior is non original but designed by myself out of birch faced plywood. It creates a light interior feel which is in contrast to the usual darker wood used on the original conversions. It has two large removal drawers that can be brought into the house and loaded up, a double hob and grill which is situated within one of the seats. The cooker can be removed for use outside. The other seat contains storage as does the under rock and roll bed area.
3/4 rock and roll bed suitable for two adults
two hammocks above rock and roll bed – suitable for two small adults at a push or more likely two kids
cross driver/passenger seat hammock – suitable for small child (3-6)
