About the area: Freddie Freedom lives in Bristol and is parked on a quiet residential street, on a private driveway.Description of Beds: Freddie Freedom sleeps two people in a fixed double bed (140 cm wide x 168 cm long) Two LED reading lights sit overhead & views out the back are via two porthole windows as well as a further window at the foot of the bed :) Cosy blankets and cushions are provided for those ‘nesting days’ and the overhead lockers at the foot of the bed are ideal for popping your open laptop in if you fancy curling up to watch a movie. Double doors open out from the back, so if a spot of bed lounging while taking in the views is your thing, then this is the spot to do it from.Description of Seating: Two belted seats in the front including the driver seat - one of which is a swivel captains chair and rotates around when not driving. The living space can comfortably seat four around a swivel table which also moves to suit best position for you.Description of Electrical Setup: Solar panels on Freddie Freedom mean he can go off-grid as needed (battery levels visible internally) and this provides a standard socket, and usb charging (2 ports) when doing so.He also operates on hook up (cable supplied), and this enables a further two electrical sockets to be available and for more energy heavy appliances such as hair dryer/iron etc to run.Parking: Parking space available on private driveway for hirers - simply drop your car, pick up Freddie Freedom, and when you drop him back your car will be in the same place for ease.Kitchen Facilities: In addition to the two gas hobs inside, there is a further two ring gas burner that you can use to cook outside. Freddie Freedom has everything you could need to cook up a feast, including a chopping board, large and small frying pan, large and small saucepan, steamer, corkscrew, cafetière, cutlery and crockery for 4 people, mugs and wine glasses, and cooking basics (oil/vinegar/salt/pepper)Bathroom Facilities: There is a 25 litre removable water tank in Freddie Freedom that supplies water to the sink via a pump and provides cold water only. Hot water is achieved by using the kettle :) A separate container for drinking water is supplied (10 litres)A porta-potti is concealed under one of the living room seats, and is removable so can be used in a tent outside (not supplied) or in situ.Audio Equipment: Portable Bose SoundTouch speaker is provided in the lounge area - connect your music via Bluetooth :)Type of Heating: Diesel heater runs off the main fuel tank, and can be controlled via remote control for comfort and ease.Pet Information: Pet friendly, and we welcome well behaved dogs (max of 2 at any one time). There are no specific provisions for secure transportation so this would need to be considered on an individual basis in relation to your own pet(s)Conversion Story: Freddie Freedom was converted in 2019 by GV Conversions (specialist in bespoke conversions) for a couple whose plan it was to travel Spain in him. They then decided to buy a property instead, and so I spotted Freddie Freedom for sale, brand new and pristine and ready to hit the road!About the Owner: I came to van life 6 years ago with a hankering for freedom and a way of ensuing my travels could easily include my trusty hound Banjo!I fell in love with Freddie Freedom for his fixed bed, easy access to the drivers cab (essential safety feature for a solo travelling female I felt) and off grid capabilities (meaning max flexibility for overnight stays). He was built by an engineer who lives in his own van for all four seasons in the Lake District (GV Conversions) so I figured he knew a thing or two about effective insulation! (& I wasn’t wrong)In the past six years, Freddie Freedom, Banjo & I have been all around the Iberian peninsula, across mainland Europe, spent a summer in the Baltic States, and crossed over to Scandinavia by ferry, living on the road for months at a time in comfort and with ease.My absolute favourite thing is rocking up at a quiet spot and throwing open the back doors to lounge and drink in the views from the comfort of bed with a cup of coffee in hand :)Extra Information: A four season beast, Freddie Freedom is the bomb in summer or winter :) Spacious and comfortable he was converted by an engineer who lives in his own van for four seasons in the Lake District so clearly knows a thing or two about comfortable van life living!What's included• Two camping seats
Two ring gas burner (for outside use)
Two small outside tables
One regular sized outside table
Electric hook up cables
Awning & pegs
Step ladder
Small fire pit
