Join us this week for our 5 seat, 5 berth van conversion van tour. We've converted this 2020 Volkswagen Crafter LWB into a camper van that sleeps and seats a family of 5. We wanted to avoid the reliance of gas so have had a system designed to allow the camper van to be all electric.
We are a family of five from South Wales living full time and vlogging our campervan journies and travels around the UK and EU. Join us for some fun, laughter, tears and pain and we will share our experiences, knowledge and finds with you.

Fair play guys, you have made a cracking job, if you hadn't filmed the progress, you could pass that off as a professional conversion, absolutely outstanding 👌👌 take care love Tony and Cas xx
Thank you both that’s very kind of you to say XxRR
Seen a lot of builds on RUclips none as challenging as yours and I’ve got to say I was very sceptical that you’d be able to do it so well. I am just blown away with what you have done. You’ve not only made an amazing space that is incredibly unique but you’ve done it in a ridiculously quick time and it looks incredible. Hats off guys. Just wow!!!
Thank you that’s really kind of you to say lovely to hear you enjoyed watching it xx
I was looking forward to this one...the grand tour! it looks amazing and cozy and i think the pods are brilliant and the kids obviously love their individual spaces. One day when they are older your kids are going to look back to these times and be so glad that they had a childhood full of unconventional adventure i have no doubt about that!
That’s really lush of you to say thank you XxRR
Amazing! Looks awesome…Hopefully see you soon 🥰👊🏼
Thank you guys and hope to see you soon too safe travels xx
Bont boy here loves it well done 👍🏴
Xx
Fantastic build….brilliant family van 👍
Thank you 😊 xx
Really has come together really well
I went for a kingsize bed in mine
We think ours is a super king 🤴 good luck with your build xx
I’m currently at the end of converting a XLWB transit. We are also a family of 5. Like yourselves I find myself always explaining to people about how we will make it work to travel. This video has given my confidence in what I’m saying love the build and look forward to seeing your travels.
This is so lovely and dare we say it, shouldn’t matter what people say as long as the kids are happy but we always worry too it’s fine just enjoy travelling and the kids will have lush memories xx
Nice job, as the family grows will do a larger mk2. We started with a 4 berth caravan and ended up with a 30ft long 9 berth for 4 of us. The boys are now in there teens and are as tall as us. Having the extra space allowed us to install a woodburner and that was a game changer, just need to finish my 4x4 lorry to tow it with.
That sounds fab xx
That van is stunning guys. Without a doubt one of the best conversions I’ve seen. Well done to both of you. 👍
Thanks so much! That’s very kind of you to say xx
You guys should be so proud of yourselves. Absolutely stunning job.
That’s very kind thank you xx
What an achievement! The van is looking like it’s been professionally converted. Such an amazing transformation. Can’t wait to watch the future instalments of the amazing adventures of ‘Vangelly’!
Thank you that means a lot to us all xx
Best van I've seen in a long time

That’s such a kind thing to say thank you xx
🎉 INCREDIBLE!! You guys have worked so hard and boy has it paid off. Looks amazing… love all the detail and the superb use of space. It’s great to see how you all as a family working so well together throughout the whole process and creating the perfect home for yourselves.

another great video, totally understand what you said about kiddies spaces, when our boys were young we toured Europe in our Burstner 747... 7 berth it was great fun as the boys were happy....most of the time..... your conversion to the Crafter is stunning.... you are going to make so many more great memories and I really look forward to your posts........stay safe......
Thank you Sandy, burstner is our fave one day you never know! So for now the kiddies can have a giggle with their pods xx
I love the bed idea just they less height compare your bed . It will make less air to breathe isn’t
Great design and great to see how it works for you. I would love sitting in that seat too with a coffee and a good view :)
Thank you xx
Top Bananna guys great job
Thank you so much xx
"Happy with that" 😘
🙌🙌🙌
What a nice job you've done converting your van, it's good to see a van conversion that's not got the crappy and heavy wood cladding all over the inside. This looks like a professional job, you both must be so proud and pleased it's finally finished 😁 time to go and enjoy it 👍🍾🥂🍻🎉

Amazing Job . Love it 👍👍👍
Thank you! 😊 xx
We’re a family of 5 in a VW transporter! 😂 and our two eldest are both taller than me (mommy) now! So essentially, 4 adult sized people and a 10yr old!! Would love a bigger van but hubby doesn’t want to upsize
Amazing!! Have the best travels xx
You’ve done great! It’s awesome and always had faith it would work… some people just can’t think outside the box… enjoy your travels 🎉
Thank you Carl, that’s so kind of you to say xx
Great adventure for the kids learning more than at schools we use a pop up quest in the summer works brill for us extra space all the best
That’s a great idea, we are hoping to get an awning installed too hopefully see you on the road xx
Fantastic job. I agree with you about the mule ladder/holder as I dropped in to see Shaun the other day, they are so light and well made. Happy travels
We love it stunning bit of kit xx
Amazing build, one of the best Crafters out there! You should be seriously proud 👏🏼
Wow, thank you! Xx
Looks great!
Thanks!xx
What a wonderful conversion, You should be very proud of you're work,In the words of Bud lightyear, Infinity and beyond.
Haha thank you appreciate it XxRR
Wow, what an inspiration you guys are. Epic build and looks amazing! Fantastic job! Thank you for sharing this…… 👍👍👍
Thank you that’s really nice to say xx
It looks amazing, well done all of you! Now the adventure can begin. Enjoy guys
Thank you so much xx
Very nice design and good use of space considering there are 5 people in the rig. I wouldn't have put the cooker right next to the bed though. Simply because you could have popping grease or someone could be sleeping while the other is cooking and the kids compartment is right below it. May have been better to put the sink there across from the bathroom. But overall a very nice build. Safe travels.
Thank you Joe, know what you mean but really wanted the sink by the door to shower the kids haha xx
Great van conversion for a couple wanting to tour Europe
Thank you xx
Fantastic !!!! you have worked your socks off with this project & made a beautiful motorhome for yourselves, I wish you all many happy times in it & safe journeys 👌👍💞
Thank you very much really appreciate that xx
You guys have done an outstanding conversion.. you must be very proud 👏
Thank you so much means a lot xx
Well done, the van is cool - so now let the fun begin, good luck
Thank you so much xx
Loved following hou progress on your Crafter Conversion. Good luck with your next adventures xx
Thanks so much! 😊xx
Some nice touches, so tricky fitting all of it in to a van when you include the internal shower so well done. Cheers for the heads up on the swivels, got mine delivered Wednesday. Putting a Mule spare wheel ladder in my list now,lol.
Thank you yea it was a few head scratchy moments along the way but got there in the end! The wheel carrier is ace xx
You two are lovely and so easy to watch… but wow this Van build is amazing and such a professional job and finish too. But as they say “it’s never quite finished” I’m also loving that tyre and ladder rack which looks the biz!!! … If I was a few years younger I’d be looking at a van conversion just like this. Well done guys you must be feeling very proud of yourselves and I doff my cap 👏👏👏🥰
This is lush of you to say thank you very much xx
Love the van guys it looks amazing. The best of luck with it, and as we say here in Donegal " keep her between the hedges"
Thank you Gary appreciate your feedback xx
You've done a great job on that van, the both of you. Well done! I wish you many happy miles touring in it.
Thanks so much very lush of you to say xx
Absolutely amazing job! Well done! You should start your own business converting vans! Then again you would never have time to enjoy yours! Brilliant enjoy it while the kids are young enough! Look forward to seeing you use it!

Fantastic build quality and a lot of thought has gone into the design
Thank you appreciate it XxRR
What a fantastic job you have done your van is lovely the workman ship top class well done
Thank you very much! Means a lot xx
Excellent conversation, enjoyed watching your journey through it. Safe travels.
Thank you xx
I'm guessing there's been criticism about the kids again and honestly, why can't people just naff off! Whilst a van is not for me, I honestly believe you guys have done an awesome job thinking about the little touches that make it right for you. I know that the kids will be thinking it's an adventure every time you go out in the van and what kid doesn't love adventures?! Great job guys!!
This is absolutely lush of you to say thank you 😊 it’s not for everyone as you rightly say but works for us right now and there may be more builds in the future xx
My van is smaller than your by far but you learn to adapt. I think you've done an amazing job. Looks beautiful❤️
Thank you so much xx
Fantastic job guys looks like it's just come out of the showroom stunning
Thanks so much! That’s very kind xxxx
Wow you’ve done an amazing job with the van..Well done both xx
Thanks so much! 😊xx
Lush van, lush couple, lush kids! So impressed what you guys have done in the time frame. Amazing use of space! Van is so much cooler than hippo motorhome, and works too!! If you can do a family of 5 there is hope for me n wifey as a two berth. Picked van up Friday, Mule Monday, Elite Saturday then our conversion begins. Been wonderful coming along on your journey, great vids, lovely attitude to life guys!! Keep up the great work n wish you well for the future! Carl n Catherine xx
Hi both such a lush comment thank you 😊 also good luck with your build and sire it will be the best thing you ever do too happy building xx
Great job guys looks amazing and as long as the kids like it thats ok lol happy travels.
Thanks so much! Totally true too xx
Awww what a great job! The van colour is superb.
Thank you so much XxRR
Fanbloodytastic guys, you've achieved what you set out to do. Very cosy looking and now my wife is jealous as she says our M/H looks cold compared to this build. Hopefully she is not hinting that I try to do something like this.
Happy Travels, all the best Drew & Linda
Ha ha felt the same with ours like you could create anything because always thinking of the next person this is done lightly though ha ha go on do her a van xx
Great work! You’ve made an awesome van 👍
Glad you like it! Thank you xx
