The Build

This camper has been initially designed to suit a growing or larger family. We've got 2 children ourselves so know how important practical and comfortable space is - and importantly, having an easily accessible the loo! We also know that each family is different, so we offer a host of options & upgrades to suit your needs & style.

Features

Seating

 

The Blagdon comes with 5 belted seats as standard — three in the cab and two in the rear, built into the crash-tested rock & roll bed, which also includes Isofix compatibility.


 In the living space, an extendable bench seat faces the rear seats, comfortably allowing four people to sit around the oak dining table. A fifth passenger can perch on the bed or staircase when needed. 


A window beside the rear seating provides the perfect view for watching the world go by on the move.


Both the rear bench and cab seats can be upholstered in your choice of materials, allowing you to fully personalise the interior finish.

Beds

 This layout is designed to comfortably sleep up to five people. The rear bed measures approximately 195 x 120 cm, offering a spacious sleeping area above. 


Below, the rock & roll bed extends into an exceptionally long and comfortable double, ideal for adults or taller sleepers. 


The fifth bed is a compact fold-out mattress that fits securely across the front cab seats, perfect for a child or smaller adult. 


Shower & Water

 

This camper features a spacious internal shower enclosure, complete with a Thetford cassette toilet as standard (with the option to upgrade to a composting toilet if preferred). 


The enclosure is finished with Reco wall lining and a Tamdour shower door for a clean, durable finish.


For added convenience, there’s also an external hot & cold shower mounted in the garage area—ideal for rinsing off sandy feet, muddy boots, or adventurous kids and dogs.


As with the rest of the build, you can personalise the space by selecting your preferred wall lining, shower door colour, and mixer/shower head finishes to suit your style.

Kitchen

 

The main kitchen is positioned on the driver’s side, just behind the shower, and is expertly handcrafted in-house using lightweight, durable materials. 


It features a solid oak worktop with an integrated hob (with upgrade options to induction or oven), a 65L compressor fridge, a cutlery drawer, kickboard lighting, and ample storage throughout.


 A window above the kitchen adds natural light and a scenic view while cooking.


All cabinetry is fully customisable — choose your cabinet colour, handles, and worktop material to match your personal style.

Storage

 

We understand how crucial storage is in a family campervan, so this layout has been carefully designed to maximise every inch of space.


There’s a large overhead shelf above the cab, generous under-bed storage beneath the Fabworx rock & roll bed, and a 4-section overhead cabinet that includes space for essentials alongside the electrical control panel.


The kitchen units are built to accommodate all your cookware and still leave room for personal items. The staircase cleverly incorporates both a top-loading storage compartment and an upper pull-out drawer, while a hidden shoe storage cubby sits just behind the cab in the bulkhead.


Finally, the rear garage area houses the dining table, 4th cab bed, and electrical system, with plenty of space left over for larger items like camping chairs or outdoor gear.

Electrical

 

We know how vital a safe, reliable electrical system is in an off-grid family campervan. That’s why this build comes fully equipped as standard with a powerful 200W solar panel and a 230Ah Roamer lithium battery—delivering dependable energy wherever your journey takes you.


For total peace of mind, we use premium Victron components throughout:


  • Victron Multiplus inverter/charger – for seamless 230V power on or off-grid
     
  • Victron BMV battery monitor – check battery levels at a glance
     
  • Victron SmartSolar MPPT – maximises solar charging efficiency
     
  • Victron Orion DC-DC charger – charges from the engine while you drive
     
  • Victron Lynx Power In – centralised distribution and fuse monitoring
     

This setup ensures you’re always powered up and in control, no matter how remote your adventures.

Gas & Heating

 

Our base model includes an underslung refillable gas tank, maximising garage space while providing a reliable fuel source. A digital gas level indicator makes it easy to monitor your usage at a glance.


For those seeking a gas-free system, there's an option to upgrade to induction cooking, pairing perfectly with our powerful off-grid electrical setup.


Heating is delivered via the efficient Autoterm 4kW diesel heater, controlled through a Comfort Controller that allows timed settings and thermostat-style temperature control.


Hot water is supplied by the Bobil Air Hybrid system, which offers dual functionality—heating via 230V hookup on campsites or drawing heat from the diesel heater when off-grid. This ensures maximum comfort, flexibility, and efficiency wherever your adventures take you.
