Campervan Company
We are proud people come from all over the UK and Europe to invest in a campervan!
“A main encampment providing supplies, shelter, and communications for persons engaged in wide-ranging activities, such as exploring, reconnaissance, sport, or mountain climbing.”
Whether you’re into adventure, exploration, sports escapades or even reconnaissance missions, your campervan is your very own base camp on wheels.
And we are Base Campers® – the connoisseurs of campervans, the marvels of motorhomes, the virtuosos of VW, and the builders of mind-blowing base camps.
Where it all started
Base Campers® was started by two friends – a product designer from Cornwall and an engineer and flooring specialist from London – who have spent 20 years travelling and living in converted vans.
We don’t just build and sell campers, we use them, so we know what works – and only the best will do.
Everything is custom-made and done in-house with a meticulous (almost obsessive) attention to detail. Sub-standard pre-fab packs and MDF are banned from our workshop, but high-end materials are standard, like Superva (lightweight furniture board), and VW Rusty Lee Rock and Roll beds.
Every retrofit is different, so the first question we ask you is: “What are you going to use it for?” Then we can make sure the design suits your needs.
“It’s amazing to see those happy camper faces – we’re changing people’s lives and we love that!”
