Mercedes Sprinter, 4 berth, (2013) Motorhome for hire in London | CS408422C

Description of Beds:.

The Van sleeps up to 4 people. Two adults in the pull-out double bed (135 x 190) and two children under 9 years old (no adults please) in the fold out bunks (60 x 150).

Description of Seating:

The van is wonderfully spacious. While driving there are four belted seats with headrests.

When parked, the front two seats turn round to face the other belted seats and create a dining space for four. When the bed is put away, it forms an L-shaped sofa at the other end of the van which can also seat four.

Description of Electrical Setup:

The 2x usb sockets, van lights and fridge-freezer are powered by a solar panel. There is an inverter which powers a 240v plug for charging laptops etc.

About the area:

The van lives in West Norwood in South East London on a quiet street off the main road.

The Garden of England, Kent is within easy reach, but the M25 makes it easy to escape London in many directions.

Parking:

There is free parking on the street if you’d like to leave a vehicle there during your rental.

Cooking Equipment:

The van is equipped with a gas oven, but I also heat water and keep food warm on top of the wood burning stove.

Cooking equipment includes - Saucepan and frying pan | kettle and coffee maker | knife | chopping board and cooking utensils | unbreakable mugs, glasses, plates, bowls and cutlery for four | ovenware | colander | tin opener and a corkscrew/bottle opener |

Teabags, coffee, salt & pepper and sugar will be provided, along with cleaning supplies and bin bags.

A carbon monoxide alarm, fire blanket and fire extinguisher have been installed.

Water and Sanitation:

There is a removable water tank. The water is drinkable and the tap is operated by a foot pump.

Water can be heated in the kettle using the gas oven or wood burning stove to give you hot water for tea, cooking and washing up.

There is no toilet or shower in the van.

Audio Equipment:

The van’s media centre will play CDs and Radio.

Type of Heating:

The van is heated by a wood burner stove. It looks small, but it can keep the van very toasty when required.

Fuel will be provided.

Packing for your trip:

Please make sure that the combined weight of you and your luggage is no more than 400kg.

Arwen weighs 3.1 tonnes before you arrive and cannot weigh more than 3.5 tonnes while being driven on the road.

Booking Information:

I’m a singer and I use the van as my home away from home when I’m traveling for work. Some of this can be quite last minute, so I keep the long-term availability of the van limited on the calendar.

Sometimes the van is free but I'm not. You won’t be able to start or end a booking on these days

Because my work is flexible, I'm sometimes only available for pick-up and drop off at unusual times, so that's the first thing we'll agree before you book your trip. I don't charge for additional time, we'll just do what works for us on the days you'd like to book.

If you’re interested in hiring the van for a long trip at some point, or you have a more unusual request, you need a van for a photo-shoot or filming for example, do drop me an email and we'll probably be able to work something out. ( - Click to contact - )

Conversion Story:

Arwen started life as a parcel force van and was then converted by the lovely Bill and Becks of ‘Rustic Campers’ and became their family van.

She was then bought by an intrepid singer. (Me!) And she now lives in London, her new base for more adventures.
