About the area: Ike lives in Easton, Bristol in the home of Roam and Slumber campervans. There is plenty of space for looking around the van off street and also get a feel for driving the camper before hitting the open road.

Parking: If you drive to pick up Ike you are welcome to leave your vehicle on the off-street parking where Ike is normally parked. If you are travelling to Bristol on public transport, Ike's lives around one mile from Bristol Temple Meads train station and is a similar distance from the bus station.

There are four mugs, plates, big pasta bowls and two cereal bowls. You even can use nice big wine glasses craftily safely stowed in their very own rack made with wine corks. The kitchen showpiece is the beautiful fading orange, 2-litre, Le Creuset kettle ready to fill the glass loose leaf tea strainer and big cafetière for your coffee.

Water Facilities: Ike has a 75-litre underslung black water tank feeding hot water to the kitchen sink and shower, which heats up in less than 15 minutes. The tank is filled via an external water point. Kept in the van is a 10m length of food standard hose for easy refilling of the tank. Waste water is collected in underslung 50-litre grey water tank. This release tap can be kept open when parked somewhere waste water can simply drain away.

Audio Equipment: Ike is very well equipped for music lovers, with two sets of JBL speakers built in to solid sapele speaker boxes that are capable of creating a party atmosphere. You can connect to the big touch screen stereo in the cab via Bluetooth or USB cable to your phone.

Type of Heating: Ike is built to keep you really toasty through the colder months of the year. There is a 3KW underslung heater powered by the LPG tank as well as a beautiful 3kw wood burner if you opt for the old romantic way of keeping warm.

Conversion Story:. Ike began life as a standard panel van, and has been converted by the owner of Quincy who is also on the Quirky Campers rental fleet. Ike’s owner has taken everything he learnt from building Quincy to enhance the comfort, usability, luxury and finish in Ike. An awful lot of time was spent agonising over the best colour and real timber combinations, along with many other details. The cupboard doors, the handles, even the solid ash floor were all handmade with great care and attention and the end result is a truly luxurious and spacious off-grid camper that makes you smile every time you open the door.

Drivers need to be aware that the total weight of driver, passengers and baggage must be below 260kg to keep the vehicle within its legal Max Allowed Mass (MAM) of 3500kg
