As we’ve been keen festival go-ers for almost 2 decades, my boy and I decided to buy a little caravan to take with us on our adventures.

It was a much cheaper option than hiring a motorhome each time and much more comfy than a tent.

So we bought an ugly, dated little van and turned it into something lovely.

A proper little home from home to use while we’re camping. Et voila, Dolly 1 was born. Since then we’ve had twin boys and needed a little more room so we sold our original van and bought a bigger version — Dolly 2.

This collection of posts shows how we renovated both vans — plus everything I’ve written that’s caravan related.
