Welcome to our Little Vision...
Our Vision: Why We Built Gatwick Campers
— A Community Born from the Call of the Open Road —
Every great adventure starts with a spark.
Ours was the simple thrill of the open road, the joy of waking up with the mountains in our window, and the deep satisfaction of a coffee brewed on a campervan stove while the sun rises on a new horizon.
That’s how Gatwick Campers was born, not just as a business, but as a movement. A growing community of explorers, tinkerers, travellers, and dreamers. A crew united by curiosity, courage, and a shared belief: life is better when it’s lived outdoors, under your own steam and with a van full of possibilities.

More Than Just Campervans
Yes, we convert, rent, lease, manage, and sell VW campers. Yes, our vans are stylish, comfortable and road-trip ready. But behind every van, there’s a much bigger story.
We built Gatwick Campers because we believe everyone should have the chance to experience the freedom of the road. To travel slower. To see more. To breathe deeper. To wake up somewhere new and feel at home.
We’re here to make vanlife accessible, whether you’re just curious, ready to buy, or dreaming of earning passive income from a van of your own.
Built by Enthusiasts, for Enthusiasts
We didn’t start with spreadsheets we started with screwdrivers and surfboards. Gatwick Campers was founded by people who’ve lived the lifestyle: long weekends in the Peaks, coast-to-coast road trips, nights under star-filled skies. We know what works in a van, what breaks, what brings joy, and what adds real value.
That’s why every service we offer from custom conversions to campervan management—is designed with you in mind. Not just to sell, but to serve the community we’re proud to be part of.
A Community-First Culture
We’re not just building vans.
We’re building a movement of like-minded adventurers who look out for each other, share tips, tell stories, and lift each other up. Our customers become part of something bigger. Whether you're a first-time hirer or a seasoned van owner, you're always welcome here.
We run meet-ups, offer support for first-time van buyers, and we’re always on hand to answer questions—no matter how small. Got a problem on the road? We're a phone call away. Got a big dream? We'll help you build it.
Because that’s what community means.
Adventure, Accessibility & Sustainability
Our vision is about freedom with purpose.
We’re passionate about making road travel more affordable, more inclusive, and more sustainable. That’s why we:
- Offer flexible hire, lease, and ownership options for all budgets
- Help van owners generate income through our managed hire programme
- Focus on smart, durable builds that last
- Support local makers and eco-conscious materials wherever possible
- We want everyone—from solo explorers to young families—to experience the joy of life on the road.
The Road Ahead
Gatwick Campers is more than a brand. It’s a belief in a better way to travel, live, and connect. A way that values experience over excess, freedom over routine, and community over competition.
Wherever you are on your journey whether you’re curious about campervans, saving up for your first van, or looking to share your love of travel with others, we’re here to support you.
We didn’t build Gatwick Campers just to sell vans.
We built it to help people like you hit the road and never look back.
Join our journey. Start yours.
