Escape and explore Derbyshire, the Peak District, the Lake District or Wales and beyond with our VW T6 Camper - Wallace.
Wallace is conveniently located in the centre of the Country in Derby offering easy access to so many of the UK’s most beautiful locations with Ashbourne, Matlock and Dovedale on the doorstep to kick off your adventure before you explore further afield into the “Peaks”, the “Lakes” or beyond.
Wallace is a high spec, luxury long wheel base camper conversion, offering several advantages over factory VW California and short wheel base vehicles. It has a larger kitchen, a wider electric folding bed and 26% more living space / storage to name just a few.
With stylish looks and modern features, Wallace stands out from other campers. The van was converted mid-2020 and is a low mileage, 6-speed, 150BHP, T32 rated Euro 6 engine so it can be driven in to green zones (ultra low emissions zones).
Wallace offers you the freedom to go anywhere with unlimited mileage, insurance for up to 2 drivers and full UK wide breakdown cover. Seat belts for 5 passengers and sleeps 4 with 2 adults in the main bed and either two children or one adult / one child in the pop-top bed. There is of course the means to use a tent or the awning to extend the sleeping potential further.
We are busy parents to our beautiful children who love the outdoors and enjoy to use our camper any chance we can, creating fantastic memories and wonderful experiences. We would love for you to experience the best Derbyshire (and beyond) has to offer with what only a camper can offer – complete freedom. With so much to offer and with still so many hidden gems not yet on the tourist map; our camper offers you the opportunity to explore the “Peaks” or venture into the “Yorkshire Dales”, the “Lake District’, “Snowdonia National Park” or the “Brecon Beacons” and beyond creating your own adventure and memories that will last a lifetime. We are ideally situated just outside of Derby and a short drive to Dovedale “The Princess of Rivers” which opens up the gateway into the Peaks with Castleton, Bakewell, Mam Tor, Stanage edge, Ladybower reservoir and many other amazing places all within easy reach and each offering amazing adventures and breath-taking views.
For those that want to extend their adventure further afield, circa 3 hours East of Derby will see you hit the east coast of England and well on your way into the Norfolk Broads, 3 hours West will see you hit Snowdonia national park and the west coast of Wales, the same travel time north will see you through the Yorkshire Dales and well on your way to the Lake District, and the same travel time south will get you to the outskirts of the Brecon Beacons national Park. These places are all amazing to visit anytime of the year whether it be blistering sunshine, crisp white snow on the ground or even pouring rain with the cosiness and warmth of the van and sound of rain drops on the roof providing a “one with nature” feel to your adventure.
