With a record year for domestic tourism predicted, it looks as though British families will forgo overseas trips in favour of UK destinations. And one great way to see the best of British is in a classic Volkswagen camper van! These can be hired from CampinaVDub.co.uk, a Surrey-based company that has three retro-style VW campers available, all stylishly ‘pimped’ with the sort of facilities usually found in a boutique B&B.
The three campers are 2009 Type 2 bay window VWs imported from Brazil, equipped with everything from outdoor furniture to a full stereo system, to add comfort and style without losing the soul of the classic camper van experience. And the brand new body and water-cooled, fuel-injected engines ensure that – unlike the originals – they won’t rust or break down.
If you wish, you can see CampinaVDub.co.uk at Dubs in the Park on 17 May 2009, helping to transform the grounds of Victorian mansion Easthampstead Park in Berkshire into a family VW festival.
