Glenda - Classic 1976 VW Campervan

Glenda is a classic 1976 RHD type 2 bay window Devon Volkswagen Camper van with modern interior.

She seats four when driven (two up front and 2 in the back)

The interior has been modernised and includes a gas cooker, sink and fridge. There is a fold away table for eating. The pop up roof is also new. The rental includes all crockery, cutlery, kitchen equipment and a torch. The van has a carbon monoxide detector and fire extinguisher. An electric cable is provided for hook up while at a campsite. There are interior LED lights and phone charing points, The van has a full set of curtains plus a cover for the front windows so the van is completely private while sleeping.

The interior back seat becomes a rock and roll double bed for 2 adults. Glenda is most suitable for a couple. However, there is an an additional lean to tent/awning which is available free of charge for extra room for a family.

A bike rack is also available free of charge. Also for when the nights get a little chilly - a fan heater can be used when the van is hooked up to power at a campsite.

The engine is fully reconditioned 1.6 litre petrol air cooled engine with electronic ignition. You can reach speeds of up to 55-60mph comfortably giving plenty of power for the A roads.

In the unlikely event Glenda breaks down she has full AA cover for roadside repair and relay from anywhere in the UK.

Please note I am doing a combination of WFH and also in London on some days so can be fairly flexible re drop off and pick up.

Driving a 44 year old camper van is obviously very different to driving a modern equivalent. For example, there is no power steering the brakes are pad rather than disk. For this reason, before the van is driven away I provide a driving lesson so that the designated driver feels comfortable before taking her on the road.

Free parking in a locked garage is provided for one vehicle so you can just drop off your car and go. I also offer free pick up from Farnham train station.

All you require Is your own bedding. Everything else is provided.

***** If you would like to have a classic camper experience with another group, I also own Lola - 1979 Classic Camper Van - the blue camper that features in some of the pictures and is also available to hire on this site. There is secure parking for 2 cars (garage pictured) *****
