Campervan Conversion

The campervan is a wonderful thing - a van that you can camp in and if you don't want your own campervan after looking through this site, then we've failed in our task... but we doubt that will happen - the campervan culture is here to stay, so welcome to the party! A campervan on the most basic level is a van-like vehicle that you can, as a minimum, sleep in.  For decades, people have used normal panel vans, perhaps that they already owned for work, that they have simply put a mattress in the back of and successfully gone on holiday in - all other campervans are essentially just more refined versions of this primitive concept. The classic VW Campervan is exactly this - a refined version of a normal van with a mattress thrown in the back.  Even one of the huge Winnebago motorhomes that you get in America are essentially the same, though they have become almost unrecognisable from the most basic campervans!

A short list of sub-headings for starting your plan: Usability - how easy is it to get at what you need?  Food, clothes, the kettle!  How high do surfaces need to be for comfortable use? Seating needs to be the right height too both in terms of leg and head space.  Do you have enough room for all the people who will be traveling?
