We find L1H2 to be a great balance balance between full standing head height and day-to-day use — it easily fits into standard parking bays and takes the stress out of passing on narrow country lanes.

Handcrafted conversion thoughtfully designed for two people. Built using a combination of aesthetic solid wood and lightweight ply throughout, it features sturdy, characterful craftsmanship and keeps weight down. It’s fully insulated, staying cool in the summer sun — making it perfect for festivals — and is cosy and warm during winter trips.
Kitchen & Dining
– Bespoke Details: Features handmade shaker-style cabinet doors, a live-edge oak worktop, and a stunning handcrafted copper sink.
– Maximised Worktop Space: We opted for a portable hob (with a built-in storage area under the bench seat) to give you maximum worktop space for preparing meals.
– Space for a Pull-Out Fridge: A portable chest fridge or cool box can be tucked neatly under the sofa, plugging into a 12V socket towards the rear.
– Rattle-Free Driving: Includes a cupboard designed to hold crockery and glasses securely so you won’t get any annoying clattering on the road.
– Dedicated Utility & Kitchen Storage: Utility cupboard housing clean water, waste water, and gas canister, plus a built-in bin, cutlery shelf, overhead compartments, spice rack, soap holder, and integrated bottle opener.
Living Area & Storage
– Spacious Layout: The front swivel bench seat turns around to face the sofa and opens up a surprisingly large, flexible living area.
– Clever Hidden Storage: Accent shelving, storage pockets with secure cup holders, and secret moving panels to keep valuables hidden out of sight.
– Cosy Atmosphere: Includes a backlit bookshelf, built-in mirror, and USB charging points thoughtfully placed right where you actually need them.
– Total Pitch-Black Sleep: Comes with bespoke, made-to-measure blackout blinds plus a custom blackout cover for the front windscreen — when closed up, the van is truly pitch black inside for a proper lie-in.
Lighting & Electrics
– Cosy Lighting: 3 ceiling spotlights, perimeter variable-colour LED strip lights to set the mood, and (of course) fairy lights for ultimate evening vibes.
– Centralised Control Panel: All electrics are wired to one easy-to-use switch panel, positioned so you can reach it whether the bed is folded away or fully pulled out.
Storage, Boot Space & Gear
– Curtain-Fronted Wardrobe: Complete with handy shelving for keeping clothes neat and accessible.
– Huge Dual-Access Boot: Garage/boot storage accessible from both inside and out — large enough to easily fit two paddleboards, wetsuits, and plenty of extra clobber.
– Hanging & Organisation: Loads of rear hooks for coats and bags, storage pockets on the back doors, and anchor points placed all around the van (ideal for securing pets or drying off wet jackets).
The bed setup is super practical and designed to maximise space inside the van without any daily hassle:
– The main bed functions as a comfortable sofa during the day, then effortlessly converts into a pull-out 3/4 double bed when you’re ready to turn in.
– Built with a folding wooden frame that is very quick to pull out and set up in seconds.
– Bonus Sleeping Space: If you’re traveling with a little one, the setup easily allows for a child to sleep across the front seats (which we’ve done ourselves and found super handy!).
