## Description

Escape and explore Derbyshire, the Peak District, the Lake District or Wales and beyond with our VW T6 Camper - Wallace.

Wallace is conveniently located in the centre of the Country in Derby offering easy access to so many of the UK’s most beautiful locations with Ashbourne, Matlock and Dovedale on the doorstep to kick off your adventure before you explore further afield into the “Peaks”, the “Lakes” or beyond.

Wallace is a high spec, luxury long wheel base camper conversion, offering several advantages over factory VW California and short wheel base vehicles. It has a larger kitchen, a wider electric folding bed and 26% more living space / storage to name just a few.

With stylish looks and modern features, Wallace stands out from other campers. The van was converted mid-2020 and is a low mileage, 6-speed, 150BHP, T32 rated Euro 6 engine so it can be driven in to green zones (ultra low emissions zones). 

Wallace offers you the freedom to go anywhere with unlimited mileage, insurance for up to 2 drivers and full UK wide breakdown cover. Seat belts for 5 passengers and sleeps 4 with 2 adults in the main bed and either two children or one adult / one child in the pop-top bed. There is of course the means to use a tent or the awning to extend the sleeping potential further.

We are busy parents to our beautiful children who love the outdoors and enjoy to use our camper any chance we can, creating fantastic memories and wonderful experiences. We would love for you to experience the best Derbyshire (and beyond) has to offer with what only a camper can offer – complete freedom. With so much to offer and with still so many hidden gems not yet on the tourist map; our camper offers you the opportunity to explore the “Peaks” or venture into the “Yorkshire Dales”, the “Lake District’, “Snowdonia National Park” or the “Brecon Beacons” and beyond creating your own adventure and memories that will last a lifetime. We are ideally situated just outside of Derby and a short drive to Dovedale “The Princess of Rivers” which opens up the gateway into the Peaks with Castleton, Bakewell, Mam Tor, Stanage edge, Ladybower reservoir and many other amazing places all within easy reach and each offering amazing adventures and breath-taking views.

For those that want to extend their adventure further afield, circa 3 hours East of Derby will see you hit the east coast of England and well on your way into the Norfolk Broads, 3 hours West will see you hit Snowdonia national park and the west coast of Wales, the same travel time north will see you through the Yorkshire Dales and well on your way to the Lake District, and the same travel time south will get you to the outskirts of the Brecon Beacons national Park. These places are all amazing to visit anytime of the year whether it be blistering sunshine, crisp white snow on the ground or even pouring rain with the cosiness and warmth of the van and sound of rain drops on the roof providing a “one with nature” feel to your adventure.

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

Walllace was perfect, lovely to drive &amp; a long wheel van so extra space &amp; very well kitted out! 

Foam mattresses were provided which made the beds super comfy. 

We took an easy to set up utility tent with us to store our things in when we pitched up on sites. 

Louis was really helpful owner getting straight back to us when we had questions, even when he was away on holiday with his family! 

We’ll definitely be hiring Wallace again! 

### Ian - 5.0/5
*November 2021*

I recently hired Wallace from Louis for a few nights away in Derbyshire. The process was straightforward and the information Louis provided was very useful. Communication was prompt and efficient and the van itself was lovely, both to drive and to sleep and live in. The experience of driving someone else&#39;s van was a little stressful but that ensured I was careful and thoughtful - no bad thing! I would recommend hiring Wallace if you want the experience of using an easy, compact but very well ...

*October 2021*

It was pleasure to rent this van. Collection was without any troubles and everithing was prepared for us. Van itself drive like a dream and it is easy and straight forward to set up where you wish to stay. We really enjoyed our holiday with it. Looking forward for next opportunity to rent this van.

### Josh - 5.0/5
*October 2021*

My friend and I had the most amazing time away with this camper, it was the first time I had ever done something like this and the process of hiring was hassle and stress free. Driving was something I was little nervous of but after a few minutes of getting used to it I was having the time of my life, surprisingly very easy to drive and just felt like a tall car!

The facilities were amazing and we enjoyed the freedom of being able to explore Scotland at our own pace, the camper came with e...

### Allan - 5.0/5
*September 2021*

Rented Wallace for 6 nights at the beginning of September for a trip around the North Coast 500 route.

Van was ideal for us. Great spec, pleasure to drive and equipped with everything you need for a road trip. 

Would definitely book again. 
Many thanks Gareth.

### Ryan - 5.0/5
*August 2021*

The camper van was excellent and had all the facilities we needed. The van was also comfortable and drives like a dream. Gareth demonstrated to us how it all works which was a big help and he gave reassurance that he was only a text or phone call away should we need him day/night. I would recommend to anyone. 

### Krzysztof - 5.0/5
*August 2021*

What can I say? Excellent, friendly and easy service. Great and quick communication with owner. Van itself is pleasure and fun to drive. It’s also equipped with almost everything you might need for a family road trip. It looks awesome as well.  
As family of 4 we can honestly recommend it.

Gareth’s van was absolutely perfect, had all basic camping equipment and perfect for doing the trip we had planned. Would 100% directly use Gareth’s van again. Highly recommend, thanks again Gareth 

### Amy - 5.0/5
*August 2021*

Best 4 day stay cation in Wallace. 
Gareth is brilliant he explained everything to us before leaving, we had everything for a comfortable stay, Gareth has thought of everything! I had zero campervan experience but Gareth put me at ease with great communication on anything, no question was a silly question and he was at the end of the phone even at 10pm at night! Thanks for the best week will definitely be recommending Wallace to friends and family! Wallace is top spec and very spacious, love...

### Arthur - 4.0/5
*July 2021*

5 stars. This was our 1st ever camper trip and We had just a short but great journey around Isle of Skye! The van is perfect for family of 4, when kids are young enough to fit in the roof tent. Would definitely recommend, it's very easy to drive and equipped with  everything you might need. We felt like Home! Can't wait to go again! Thank you Gareth
