Love the great outdoors, but love your home comforts too? Then say hello to our super-swanky, German-built Glamper Van!
Brand new for the 2021 season, this uber-comfortable motorhome balances practicality with luxury, so you can set off on your next adventure in style.
We're all about getting outdoors and exploring incredible places. It’s about having the freedom to go where the mood takes you. It’s about bracing walks on windy cliff tops, discovering hidden coves, and sundowners with a view. It’s knowing that at the end of the day you can take a hot shower, watch Netflix and snuggle down in soft sheets just as comfortably as you would at home. So, where will your Glampify adventure take you?
**What’s it like inside?**
No cramped caravan conditions here. There’s a spacious interior with a kitchen and dining area, and a separate bedroom.
The bathroom has hot running water, a shower and a loo. Rituals toiletries are included, so you can pack light.
In the bedroom, choose how you’d like the beds made up – either as two singles or joined together to make a big, comfy double – with lovely bedding from The White Company.
In the living area, there's a double dropdown bed that disappears up into the ceiling during the day – also with lovely bedding from The White Company.
The kitchen includes everything you need for gourmet on the go: a fridge, hob and mini oven; all the necessary utensils, crockery, cutlery and glassware; and a Nespresso machine.
Heating and hot water is powered by mains electricity or gas bottle, so you can stay cosy no matter what the Great British weather throws at you.
** Tech home comforts: **
• Mobile Wi-Fi (subject to coverage).
• Flat-screen digital TV with Netflix and DVD player.
• Sat Nav and Apple CarPlay.
• Standard UK (230v) plug sockets, which you can use to power your own devices like chargers and hair straighteners.
• An off-grid power system, meaning that if you don’t have access to mains power you’ll still be able to use electricity in the Glamper Van thanks to stored power from the solar panels. It’s worth noting that when you’re using solar power, you’ll only be able to use power-hungry devices (such as a hair dryer) for a few minutes.

• Gas store for two portable gas bottles.
