## Description

We, Tom and Lin, converted a Volkswagen Crafter into Vanessa in 2019, which would become our home for the coming year. In 2019, we made our dream come true and crossed 21 European countries, from Norway to Greece, in our beloved Vanessa. The adventure of our lives was a fact! In the meantime, we have settled again and we want to give Vanessa her freedom back.

 Since we stayed permanently in our camper van, Vanessa was provided with the necessary facilities. It has running and heated water, a gas stove, electricity and heating. Because of our stay-anywhere mentality, we also paid the necessary attention to the stealth content of the bus. An overnight stay in the great outdoors thus became daily routine.
 We invite you to take Vanessa on new adventures!

 Vanessa is a Volkswagen Crafter L2H2, height 2m90. Anyone with a regular driver's license can drive her, but keep in mind that she is just that little bit higher and longer than a regular van.

 What does Vanessa have to offer?

 A completely self-sufficient system through green electricity from 3 solar panels (330 wp), combined with a battery storage capacity of 300ah and a 100L water tank. This means that you are not dependent on camper pitches for electricity or plumbing. In other words, you should not be at a campsite once on a two or three week trip if desired. In addition, it is always nice and warm in the van in winter, as it has a diesel heating system.

 Freedom beckons! Turn dreams into destinations!

## Reviews

### John - 4.0/5
*May 2025*

I was very happy with the camper. It was a unique experience. Tommy, the owner, was pleasant in the contract, and the minor issues I encountered were resolved quickly.
 In total I was on the road for 3 weeks and 5000 km.

### Luna - 5.0/5
*August 2024*

We went to Austria with Vanessa for a week with our dog! The campervan is still compact enough to drive and park smoothly, but thanks to the cabinets there is still more than enough storage space. For us it was a big advantage that we always had electricity and (hot) water available so that we were not tied to a campsite. The communication with Tommy also went very smoothly! Definitely recommended!

### Leslie - 5.0/5
*August 2023*

Renting Vanessa was a great experience. We really enjoyed our trip.
 The van has its charm and is very practical, communication with Tommy went very smoothly. I advise it!

### Koen - 5.0/5
*November 2022*

Had 4 great days on the Moselle. Tommy's RV is named Vanessa. Well, she still drives well, that Vanessa. A lot more mobile than a mobile home, which is handy. Slept well (good mattress) and also used the built-in parking heater. This is definitely recommended during the cold evenings in the mountains. Also positive is the gas stove and enough space to store our things. There will definitely be a next time..

### Milan - 5.0/5
*August 2022*

The initial meeting with Vanessa went for us with a very informative video in which the necessary need-to-knows of the van were highlighted. The collection went very smoothly and personally.

 Once on our way to our destination (Scotland) we became aware of the enormous comfort that Vanessa would offer us in our dream to spend this journey camping wild. An inexhaustible amount of electricity and a very adequate amount of water and gas ensured that we could drive from one view to the other wit...

### Jeroen - 4.0/5
*August 2022*

Smooth communication and nice camper! Convenient with all necessary amenities. The two available mountain bikes are a plus!
 Beautiful and handy finish inside.

### Evelien - 5.0/5
*July 2022*

Vanessa was our house on wheels for 10 days, our travel companion on a road trip through Slovenia! We really enjoyed the comfort it offers! She drives smoothly, can handle a lot and the interior is practical! We are very excited about this converted campervan and recommend it to everyone. The contact with Tommy is also very pleasant. They have recorded a handy video with all the explanations, which serves as a manual.
 Don&#39;t hesitate and take Vanessa with you on your road trip! For us it was ...

### Tina - 5.0/5
*July 2021*

Very pleasant and cozy furnished van. Fully meets expectations. Everything on board to get you installed anywhere in minutes. Excellent electrical facilities. The solar panels are a luxury. No need to tap power anywhere! Moreover, very nice landlords who treat their van with care and are available for questions. Have a top holiday! And everything handled perfectly afterwards. Five stars well deserved.
