Conversion Description

a smart, self-converted Caddy Max that proves great adventures don’t need a giant footprint. Designed for those who value nature over Netflix, this compact camper is the perfect companion for weekend escapes or long-haul European journeys.

Inside, you’ll find everything you need and nothing you don’t: an extendable bed (seriously comfy – two 6-footers tested and approved), a deluxe Cadac double cooker that slides out to meet the view, a fridge, loads of clever storage, and an interior finished in warm natural wood and Harris Tweed upholstery. It’s cosy, considered, and made for those who spend their best moments outside.

Over three summers, this van has explored the Alps, Dolomites, Pyrenees and Portugal’s coastlines. Whether you’re after sunrises by the sea or coffee with a mountain view, you’ll lover this little conversion

Beds Description

The bed features a clever extendable design that maximises space by day and comfort by night. It pulls out in seconds to create a cosy sleeping area that’s 1 metre wide and long enough for two people over 6ft tall. While it’s snug for two, it’s been tried and tested over three summers by myself and my partner — and we’ve slept soundly every time.

The mattress is plush memory foam, upholstered in beautiful Harris Tweed fabric for a warm, cabin-like feel. When not in use, the bed tucks away neatly, forming a bench where you can sit and use the desk or chill and eat off the worksurface on those wet days.
