Base Campers®

Base Campers is a specialist UK company based in Porthcothan, Cornwall, dedicated to designing and building functional, luxurious campervan conversions. The company was founded by two friends, a product designer from Cornwall and an engineer and flooring specialist from London, who collectively possess over 20 years of personal experience traveling and living in converted vans. This deep personal understanding of van life informs their meticulous approach, ensuring that every conversion is built with practical usability and high-end quality in mind. They emphasize a custom-made, in-house approach, banning sub-standard pre-fab packs and MDF in favor of premium materials like Superva lightweight furniture board and VW Rusty Lee Rock and Roll beds.

The company offers a comprehensive range of services, from full turnkey campervan conversions to specialized partial services. Their conversion packages cater to various needs, from the entry-level "Solid Base" to the fully-equipped, high-spec "Explorer" models. Beyond full builds, Base Campers provides individual services such as interior installations, power management systems, and pop-top roofs, making them suitable for empty shells, part-converted vans, or those simply in need of upgrades. They also engage in the sale of complete campervans, carry out repairs, and offer camper accessories.

Base Campers prides itself on an "unbeatable attention to detail," with all work executed by a small team of passionate, experienced builders and campervan connoisseurs. Their expertise primarily focuses on Volkswagen Transporter models (T5 and T6), reflecting their "virtuosos of VW" status. The company's reputation and conversions have reached customers far and wide, from the Shetland Isles to Europe, demonstrating their broad appeal and the quality of their craftsmanship. They invite potential clients to visit their HQ in Cornwall to discuss their needs and view their vans, underscoring their commitment to personalized service.
