Additional information

She may have a retro interior but Trixie does have a few mod cons available, a stereo system with aux cable so you can plug in music from your phone and two usb charge point on the front dashboard. Also included 240v mains electric hook-up and a leisure battery. Once plugged into an electric hook up there are a further 2 plug sockets available for your use. Driving a VW T2 is an amazing experience that will surely bring a smile to your face, especially driving around the gorgeous scenery that Cornwall has to offer, but this is very different from driving a modern car. With technology that is now over 40 years old, you really do have to drive Trixie as there is no power steering, no servo assisted brake and suspension from another era. Don’t worry we will make sure you are comfortable with driving and all the controls when you come to pick her up. The main thing to remember is just take your time when parking, reversing or turning to allow for the extra weight on the steering. Trixies home is in Falmouth a popular seaside town in Cornwall, plenty of beach locations and campsites in the local areas, but also only a 45 min drive to the popular coastal towns of St Ives or Newquay. Optional Extras: We can provide the following at an extra cost: Bed Linen £20.00 per stay Chemical Toilet and Privvy Tent £30.00 per stay - n.b must be bought back empty and clean. Inflatable Paddle Board £10.00 per night. N.B Due to Coronavirus restrictions on travel Cornwall is getting very booked up, it is advisable to make sure you can book spaces on campsites for the time you choose to hire. We can help to recommend locations if needed. This hire is for self drive only and vehicle is to be collected and driven to a campsite or driven within Cornwall. You will not be able to stay at vehicle location. Guest access You will be able to leave you car on our driveway when you pick up Trixie.

I am a very outdoorsy person, any free time is spent in or around the sea canoeing, paddle boarding, and body boarding. If my wife and I have time we love to go on a little adventure over to the north coast of Cornwall to watch the stunning sunsets.
