Cosy and comfortable, Trixie is just at home off grid in the Scottish Highlands as at a campsite in Devon. Trixie is fully insulated, with fan and vent for the warmer days, or a heater for the chillier ones. The leisure battery is charged via a solar panel, relay (charges whilst you drive) or there is the option of shore power so you never need to worry about running out of power even if you're parked up with no power available. Everything you need to cook up a storm (minus the ingredients) are provided, including a compressor fridge and a sink with a 10L tank. Trixie is such an easy drive with features such as cruise control, reversing camera, reversing sensors, Apple Carplay connectivity and steering wheel controls. Lastly, pet's aren't just allowed, they're actively encouraged. We've built a small pen under the bed that would fit a small dog (maximum 7.5kg), but for the bigger guys we just ask you bring your own pet bed and covers for the seats and we'll turn that into another storage spot! Trixie is kept roughly 400m from Hove train station, which allows for ease of pick up and drop off!

    The van was perfect for what me and my girlfriend were looking for. Very comfortable bed and more than enough room inside to make food and to chill out. We had 2 dogs with us (one being a German Shepard) and they had good amount of room to lay down on the floor. Chris provided us with everything that we needed and there was plenty of storage for extra things you may bring with you Chris was quick to respond to any queries I had and was very friendly. I think the price was very reasonable and I would definitely recommend Trixie

    Trixie was great! We hired her as a better alternative to camping when we took part in a ridiculous ultramarathon and she was probably the easiest part of the whole thing. Easy to drive and well equipped. Christopher and Bellina were great to deal with and flexible about pick up and drop off arrangements, and always there to answer any questions we had. One small thing to be aware of is that the bed isn't super long if you happen to be tall but that wasn't a big deal and probably obvious if you've slept in a camper van before. We'd definitely hire Trixie again, thanks!

    Trixie was great. The van has all thats necessary to camp. The solar panels provide all the power needed which frees up where you can park up. The friendly support offered by the owners is a real plus too.

    Chris and Bellina absolutely fantastic. To cut a long story short we ran into some serious difficulty, and their communication and care were brilliant. You could not ask for better people in a crisis. Would 100% hire from them again. We have hired Trixie before and had a great time - the van is great generally, and once they think she is ready to go out for rehire again I would recommend.
