Conversion Description
Say hello to Stanley, our beloved Ford Transit cottage on wheels. Me and my partner have lived in him on and off for a couple years and even during our wedding. We are extremely reluctant to let him go! However, we cannot justify keeping him now as we are moving to Thailand so this chapter in our life has come to an end.
Are you at the beginning of a new chapter though? We’d love him to have a new home with someone who wants a peaceful hideaway that nourishes the soul, on wheels!

This van would suit someone who is wanting a space to take away to make art in, write in or make things in and travel the UK and Europe. Stanley is not your usual lay out of bed in the back and small work surfaces, space has been given over for writing, making art and cooking as well as decoration.

The van has been insulated using Cosy wool insulation purchased from Celtic Sustainables. This sits on top of a self adhesive foam, designed to minimise condensation and then topped off with silver bubble wrap insulation, sealed with aluminium tape.
The work surfaces and some shelves were made using cedar or pine from a woodland in Herefordshire. The cladding is pine. All lightweight but hard wearing and smells great too!

If you would like to see a video of the van on a holiday with us, watch this!

Beds Description
Small double bed. I am 6 foot 5 and I have lived in it with my partner happily. We like to keep the bed out to watch movies and relax with the back door open too.
