SydneyPersonal handover & walkthroughThe van
A long-wheelbase LDV Deliver 9, finished in timber, linen and warm light.
01 — The Kitchen
Slow mornings begin with the Moka pot on the cooktop and the doors flung open. A complete kitchen, thoughtfully stocked, so cooking on the road feels effortless.
02 — The Bedroom
One last look at the stars, then linen, soft light and the sound of the sea. The dining space converts into a generous bed with every comfort already made up.
03 — The Bathroom
Rinse off the salt, warm up after a cool afternoon, or simply take your time getting ready. Small comforts make the biggest difference.
04 — The Outdoor Room
Roll out the awning, unfold a chair and claim your own patch of coast. Long lunches in the open air, and a film under the stars when the light goes.
Travelling with your dog
The best journeys include everyone. Well behaved dogs are warmly welcome, simply let us know they're coming and we'll have their things ready.
Bowls & long leads on requestOutdoor shower for sandy paws

Out of office
Home, of course, being wherever you've parked. Solar power, a mobile signal booster, a proper table and a view worth logging on for. Your colleagues need never know.

After dark
Pull your chair a little closer and watch the embers. These are the evenings you'll remember long after the trip is over.
A real evening from our travels. Enjoy campfires only where permitted.
In their words
“She is kitted out with everything you could possibly need so you can travel in comfort… I had hot sunny days and cold misty nights and I was comfortable in all conditions. Choose this van, you will not regret it.”
“Best holiday with my two girls (dogs) I could have wished for… The van itself was outstanding. Joanne has literally thought of everything and I would love to holiday in this van again.”
“Amazing! Thanks.”

Vantelope is a 2WD campervan for sealed roads only. Beaches, unsealed tracks and off-road driving aren't permitted — but there's a great deal of coast to enjoy on the bitumen.
The standard minimum is seven days. Shorter trips may be possible at a different daily rate, and stays of six weeks or more can be quoted individually.
Bookings are made through Camplify, where you'll confirm availability, the final total, cover and booking conditions before committing. See full pricing.
