Conversion Description

Experience the ultimate off-grid living with ‘Woody’ – a beautifully converted VW LT horsebox with power steering that exudes a log cabin style. This camper van is perfect for adventurous couples seeking a weekend away or week-long escapes from the hustle and bustle of life. It is also an ideal option for those who want to escape the cost of living crisis and enjoy free electricity and cheap gas. Full-time living was what this camper van was built for and with festivals in mind. With ‘Woody’, changing scenery has never been easier. Guaranteed to make you feel like you’re in your own log cabin in the woods.

The wood-lined interior of this horsebox camper was crafted with love and care, using reclaimed wood from a 1920’s church hall, providing a spacious and bespoke studio feel. The separate living and sleeping areas offer ample space to chill out and do your own thing. There is a separate bathroom with a flush toilet for added convenience.

One of the most notable features of ‘Woody’ is the side deck, providing an absolute godsend in good weather and drawing loads of attention to the hosebox. When the weather turns more chilly, fear not, because ‘Woody’ has got you covered. The genuine full-sized wood burner with double-skinned chimney flue adds warmth and coziness to the living space and a calming view of the flames through the glass door. Old-style Vanessa cooker with an oven, grill, and two-burner hob provides ample cooking options, you’ll never go hungry or cold. The brand-new compressor fridge and freezer provide enough space for your food and drinks. Compressor fridges draw less power and operate with less noise.

With seven windows there is heaps of light, and a 12V LED feature lighting system with recessed ceiling lights that can glow blue at night, ‘Woody’ creates a calming and relaxing atmosphere. Additionally, the reading light in the bedroom and USB ports at the bed and 12V control box run off the leisure battery, allowing you to stay connected even while off-grid. Split charger charges while driving, which I have used for these lights, as was recommended. Lithium can be dropped to zero and back again like a phone with no loss. The electrics provide a basic set-up with room to add the circuits you desire for your need.

The conversion is designed for maximum lightness and space, allowing for off-grid living and use as a studio. Included is the BLUETTI Portable Power Station with AC Outlets (built-in inverter sine wave for use with computers), 45W Type-C (charge a Macbook, laptop), USB Type B, and Solar Generator for taking in the 175W solar panel charge. All ensure that you’ll never run out of power, no matter where your adventures take you. This is portable so can be taken outdoors for the beach etc. Also can charge at home before the trip or from the camper van’s cigarette lighter socket whilst driving.

The van has a new mattress, and an over-the cab double bed space, providing comfortable sleeping space for four. Underneath the bed is a large storage area, and a lockable outside storage locker available for tools, etc. The gas bottle is accessed from its lockable outside locker. The kitchen space has a real ceramic Belfast sink, and is decorated with handmade Mexican tiles. The solid oak floor adds to the camper van’s charm. A fixed table has been added with a take-off leg, making dining and working convenient. Sony Bluetooth stereo syncs automatically to your phone for playing tunes and taking calls.

‘Woody’ is powered by a 2.4L diesel engine with a 5-speed manual gearbox. It starts reliably, drives and runs well, and is surprisingly economical. The engine is in good condition for its age and drives smoothly. Three passenger seats up front with seat belts and with easy access to the back. The last MOT only failed on a backlight, which was replaced immediately. It has been serviced regularly. The chassis is solid, has never been welded, and is completely undersealed with waxoil protection, keeping it like new for decades to come. Bodywork in very good condition and newly painted. Two sets of keys.

With its unique and features and beautiful design, ‘Woody’ is the ideal camper van for those seeking an off-grid living experience, a weekend getaway, or week-long adventure. I got ‘Woody’ from this website for a sabbatical which has now finished so need to pass on this gem for its next adventure. Don’t miss your chance to own this full-time off-grid home.

Just over 156,000 miles.

Can be driven on a normal car driving licence.
