If you want to be able to take ad hoc trips I get it. A family friend and her BF bought a VW transporter* for ~£2k I think and converted it themselves - a well finished job, but not to a super high spec - good enough for surf trips tho. Although that was a few years ago.
*a regular one, not a lift up roof one.
Caravan is out as I can’t stand towing one around and it’ll restrict us to campsites. With a camper we can just park up in the middle of nowhere and kip.
Renting a camper van is an option but requires too much planning. We’re after the micro adventures where we go to a nearby lake for an evening swim and instead of driving home we stay the night.
Nights p/a is hard to say, but I reckon at least 10, hopefully more.
I’ve found some second hand campers for as little as £3.5k which is low enough to give it a try before potentially investing in something newer.
