@@NaeemaIbrahim We're really sorry about that! We will be adding subtitles to this video by the end of the week which we are hoping will hope. Sorry again and thank you so much for watching!
My folks hauled us around in a VW camper. My bunk was canvas suspended over the front seats at night. (I slept parallel to the windshield between the dr8ver & passenger windows). My brothers slept in the pop top. My parents slept on the back bed, which folded up into a seat during the day. Based on my irl experience, these kids are old enough for both parents to sit in front & copilot/visit. I was younger than the youngest child here when we traveled. I knew we were supposed to look at the scenery going by. I enjoyed visiting/joking w my brothers and fiddling w lap toys. My brothers read, too. (I didn't know how, back then.) Sometimes we'd play typical car games. It was great.
This is a stunning van and it is nice that each child has their own little port hole to look out of as well. You van is very cosy and the colour scheme is beautifully done. Best wishes to you and your family xx
Although I live in the United States, the camper looks adult appealing and child friendly. However, I would've made the storage area in the back--a wet bathroom for privacy. Overall, the camper appears nice and functional.
Without that storage we would have nowhere to put our clothes unfortunately! If we went for the L4 model we might have been able to incorporate both but then would have struggled to get round our city streets. I guess the beauty of a bespoke conversion is that you can do it according to your preferences :)
Love this van build, I’m a big fan of colours & greenery, and the kids little individual pods is a fantastic idea, the only thing I’m not fussy about is having to put the bed together every evening which they can’t really avoid because there is no room, I would have a awning and put a double blow up bed in there!
Haha fair enough, definitely always open to idea for making the bed setup simpler - although I'm not sure pitching an awning and inflating an air bed would be quicker or more comfortable?
I’m totally in love with this van and colour scheme and we are in the process of converting our van. So just to check, van sleeps 5 but table sits 4 for a meal. The 5th has to eat from lap? Can a baby chair be clipped onto the end of table. ❤
Absolutely love this van build, such a good use of space! Wish you would have used a microphone though as I really struggles to hear you. Beautiful though x
We have a bunk that goes across the front seats but completely forgot to show in the video! We are only a family five but we rent it out to families of up to 6 people.
Fantastic tour with full explanation on how it all converts from day to night. I have been following alot of theses van tours as I design and build my own. One van tour I dont recommend is the inghams family they have the most dangerous set up with 7 people in one sprinter van !
Build a bed up above the ban like a tent and put a hole up for entry for the bed for you and your husband and the pop up bed and create a toe trailer that has the bathroom
Fitting 6 in a camper van is a real challenge. Beautifully and very practically solved in this case. Well done! 👍🏽😉 Hope you guys are alright. I bet your business took a real beating due to Covid. You look very positive though. 🙏🏽😌
Thanks Jens. It’s certainly been a tough year but other businesses have had it even harder. The future looks bright for campervanning though. Hope you’re doing ok?
Yes, @@lindsayberresford7768, a bit like you. Tough, but others have it much worse. I work in tourism and as you can imagine, I've been on furlough since March last year and it looks like that won't change before summer. But the Spanish government pays us 70% of our wages, so I can't complain. What upsets me most is, that we finally wanted to start converting a van last year (to begin with only for holidays and weekends) and the financial strain caused by Covid made me put the project on ice again. I'm so hoping though that we'll make it to Camp Quirky in one of your vans in the near future. All the best! 🙏🏽😌
I so much wish I could, @@lindsayberresford7768! Covid has hit us hard, financially, but I've almost recovered now. Still, travelling from Tenerife to the UK, accommodation (which I would obviously rent from you) and the admittance fee are just too much for me this year, especially since we're putting every penny we don't need towards our first van. You know that attending Camp Quirky is a long time dream of mine and every year I can't come hurts, but it will happen in the near future! Have some fun for me this year and maybe next year we'll finally meet. Or just come to Tenerife. I do have a guest room, but I'm afraid it's not enough space for you, David and the kids. If necessary though we'll squeeze you guys in somehow. And maybe, just maybe I might still be one of the Quirky Campers team one day (you remember our very short conversation about extending to other European countries?). Anyway, guys. Have fun and I very much appreciate you thinking about me! Say hello to Greg (Virgoe) for me. We've been in constant contact and I'm so upset that I won't meet him again this year. 👍🏽😘
The van looks beautiful but using that table while travelling seems worrying. I have seen a lot of warnings about not using campervan tables when the vehicle is in motion.
Nice. But in my van I knew I wanted a fixed bed that I wouldn’t have to put together at night and take apart in the morning. But if you have kids I guess it’s the only way to do it.
Very impressed with what you've managed to fit in this van. Also love it's whimsical vibe. Your children are going to have some wonderful memories built around this van ❤
Frida is stunning. We’ve booked a trip in Eric from the website, super exciting as it’s our try before we buy experience. Love the drawer baskets, are they bespoke?

I still sleep quite happily in the top bunk 😂 but you're right - we are expecting it to last 5-10 years before we have to figure out a different solution.
While the woman is very lovely, I would prefer to see the features she is pointing out and talking about. Thankfully, she did some of the filming so we could see some of the van.
Video is great but audio level is so extremely low. Why is that?
Thank you Michal, this is an issue stemming from the original edit of this video, we can only apologise! Lots more videos coming soon! :)

@@lindsayberresford7768 I know what you mean, just get hubby to do it 😄
I love the van, my only query is where would you sleep a sixth person
Maybe the 6th person is the dog?
I’m guessing above the driver and passenger seats where they have blankets and sheets stored now.
@Tanya Poort that's 5. 2 adults, 3 kids. Where is number 6?
We have a bunk that goes across the front seats but completely forgot to show in the video!
@@lindsayberresford7768 thank you for clearing that up
We are a family of 7. I'm waiting for an upgrade of Frieda. 😄
So excited, we are a family of six living in a DIY converted Sprinter Van travelling Europe.
Take a look 😃
Awesome! How old are your kids? How long have you been travelling for?
Is it just me or is the sound really low?
It is slightly on the quiet side, sorry! Headphones seem to do the trick though :)
I so love the bunk they’re a swell idea lovely van
Where did you get the belted seat from? Thanks
I can hear it perfectly.
and if anything it's too loud. Rather strange that so many can't head it.

Had to turn audio up to 100% then scrambled to turn it down at the ad
Agh sorry! Glad you could hear it though!
Absolutely beautiful van! I can hear fine with my iPhone volume turned to max :)
Brilliant, for retirees too! (Not the munchkin bunks of course, but really amazing.

Where do you keep your food storage? I am guessing that the refrigerator is on the right as you come in the van.
Yes that's right - means that it's accessible even when the bed is out
Did they explain how 5 worked with no toilet? I couldn't hear it, I thought it odd to have a shower but no toilet.
19:57
Apologies! We're going to try and add subtitles. We have a toilet that stows away under the wardrobe or goes outside in a pop up utility tent.
Love Freda, so inspiring. Thanks for the tour.
Thank you so much for your kind words :)
beautiful van love all the texture/fabric..
Love it!!! We’re a family of 5 and this is great.
Lovely design but the double bed seems very complicated to have to make up every night.
It is a little complicated. However it's still less than 5 minutes and for us our priority was for the kids beds to be easy and accessible.
What brand are the seats?
The van looks beautiful but using that table while travelling seems worrying. I have seen a lot of warnings about not using campervan tables when the vehicle is in motion.
I love the bunks!!
Nice. But in my van I knew I wanted a fixed bed that I wouldn’t have to put together at night and take apart in the morning.
But if you have kids I guess it’s the only way to do it.
Very clever use of space!
Awesome van 🚐
I'd love to answer your questions about our van :-)
Very impressed with what you've managed to fit in this van. Also love it's whimsical vibe. Your children are going to have some wonderful memories built around this van ❤
I'm a bit late, but very curious about the dimensions of the bunks if you'd like to share =) How much head space is between each bunk?

Thank you Kate. Ahh so do we!
Beautifully done 🌸💖💕
Beautiful 😍 6 people? Am I missing a bed I counted 3 bunk beds and a double bed- so 5?
There's only 5 people in the family but Frida can accommodate 6 - there is the option to use a cab bunk up front on the driver/passenger seat :)
The sound is so soft even after checking my settings I can barely hear you.
We're really sorry about that! We will be adding subtitles to this video by the end of the week which we are hoping will hope. Sorry again and thank you so much for watching!
Lovely family!
Cannot hear a thing. Camper looks absolutely lovely though.
Ahh sorry! The sound is really quiet! I find it works ok on headphones
Audio is very low but what a beautiful van!
Thank you Karina :-) We plan to add subtitles
it was a great video but the audio made it so difficult to get what you were saying:(
Really sorry about that! This video has suddenly taken off and we're going to try and add subtitles
Loving both the video and the van itself!
Can you share the make/ model of the rear seats?
How odd - I've replied to this already but seems to have disappeared? The seats are brilliant and can be found here leisurevehicleservices.co.uk/rbf840/
Stunning van, well done!!
3 beds for kids, one bed up front for parents. Where do you fit the 6th person?
Cab bunk across the front seats :)
That time when they all grow up, will you buy another bigger van. or decide to buy a home instead?
Hi Safira :) We do also have a home, Frida is for weekend adventures and extended trips away. Thank you for watching!
I can hear just fine
You could use a roaster oven.
What are the dimensions of the bunk beds for the kids?
It says how to fit 6 people but they are only 5 and secondly voice too low cant hear a word i watched it all on captions

Muy linda muy bien pensada los felicito
Such a great video - thanks for sharing!
Thank you! Can't wait to film your van tour
I guess Im kinda randomly asking but do anybody know a good website to watch newly released series online ?
@Bradley Jax try FlixZone. Just search on google for it =)
@Trevor Joel yup, I've been watching on Flixzone for since april myself =)
@Trevor Joel thank you, signed up and it seems to work =) Appreciate it!!
Is this a silent movie?
Haha it wasn't intended to be! I'm hoping that all the pointing and stroking of things is helpful though ;-)
6 adults? or a couple adults and kids under a certain height?
Up to 3 adults as the top bunk is full length + 3 kids under 5'3"
Where did you source your metal seat frame with seatbelts from?
Did you find this out at all?
This was bespoke for the conversion :)
Sound is very low. Do you not seat belt children in when traveling?
Yes the seats around the table are crash tested and all have 3 point seat belts.

Defiantly wont work when those kids get older, they are not going to want to climb into a little hole to get in and out.
I still sleep quite happily in the top bunk 😂 but you're right - we are expecting it to last 5-10 years before we have to figure out a different solution.
I count 5 , where's the other person and again with these videos where do they keep their clothing, not bedding.
What brand are the travelling seats that become a bed please?
Hi :) these were made especially for the build
@@quirkycampers hi, if it is bespoke how is it crash tested please?
