Van Life Creations *Quirky Approved Converter* Off grid stunning conversion

Perry is the newest conversion from Quirky Approved Converter Van Life Creations.

Perry is a fully off-grid cosy campervan designed to take you on any adventure in style. On entering the van, you’ll see the comfy lounge area designed to put your feet up while taking in the view. The kitchen area provides plenty of home comforts for cooking up a feast while on the move. We’ve provided a full-sized inset sink and dual burner LPG hob. The worktop is extendable with the side flap in order to provide ample prep space for your meals. There’s also a 50L 12v Dometic compressor fridge. For storage, there’s ample room under the sink, a pull-out pantry, and overhead cupboards. Perry also comes equipped with an internal shower and a removable Porta Potti that can either be stored in the shower or under the seating.

The full-sized fixed double bed at the rear of the van provides an excellent night sleep with its super comfy 6″ memory foam mattress, and at 6’4″ in length it’s longer than your standard double mattress and suitable for taller travelers. Enjoy amazing views from the van while lying in bed with a 500×700 window at the foot of the bed (but rest assured that the built-in blind will black-out the world when you’re trying to get some shut eye!). The bed is also equipped with 2 dimmable reading lights with USB sockets, and a shelf and cubbies for storing your things by your bed. The L shaped sofa at the front can be comfortably used as a child’s bed, though even adults might find themselves drifting off with their feet up as they relax with a cup of tea or glass of wine!

The van feels light and airy when you’re in it, with lots of natural light flowing through the windows and Maxxair fan, while the 10 spotlights will brighten up the van even when it’s gloomy outside. Natural wood clad walls and raw ply edges on the furniture give the van a soft and inviting finish, while the HPL laminated surfaces of the furniture and the LVT wood-effect flooring mean it is hard wearing and easily wiped clean after any adventures or spills.

The van is fully equipped for anything you can throw at it, rain or shine: it’s fully insulated, sound deadened, and has a 4kw Truma heater and boiler, ensuring you’ve got a cosy home and a hot shower to return to. Perry is just as at home off the beaten trail as she is at a campsite, with a full off-grid electrical system, a 20L underslung LPG tank, 70L underslung fresh water tank and 50L underslung grey water tank.
