  • A short film about the Chapel Motorhomes camper conversion unit I bought for my car. I finally got round to using the Berlingo as a proper camper, and I'm loving this unit. I'm also not getting back out after getting the little dog, who's now all grown up!
    I stayed at the National Trust campsite in Eskdale, in some wet and windy weather. Pretty glad to have not been in a tent. We did a couple of short walks, but the main aim was taking Barry for his first trip to the Lakes and first long car journey (he's hated the car since the day I picked him up) and figuring out how to best use this set up. Next summer we'll be back touring the country!

    I have a single chapel MH set up in my Berlingo I just love it, like you I don’t seem to use the sink ( only for storage ) I have collapsible sink I use if on day trip I take pots home to wash or use camp sinks. I use an off cut of Lino to cover the floor and footwell so it’s easy to clean after muddy / wet hiking boots come in. Unlike you I don’t have a cute Barrington ❤ happy travels x

    Such a smart set-up! Love that you made such a simple and sensible set-up that fit you and little Barry very well. Awww'd audibly at the Barry montage at the end. 🥹 Here's to more days of car camping!!

    I have the same berlingo in the same colour, her name is Nova. I also use those curtains in the summer months 😊

      We’re in the same micro camping groups Nick! I’m planning on getting back out in mine when the weather improves a bit…

    I'm sure Barry will get used to the Camper van in time especially as there is always a nice walk when you stop and you can carry him in a dog carry over your shoulder if he gets tired on longer walks, I think you will get a lot of fun from the van so look forward to seeing where you get to, Colin.

      He’s doing a lot better with the camper. I’m planning the places we’ll be travelling to come Spring & Summer!

    Barrington is very cute! You have a very interesting layout. Did you have it converted or was it already converted when you bought it?

      Hi. I bought the car & few years ago & then last year bought the camper unit to fit into it. It was a second hand one so half the price of a new unit from Chapel Motorhomes.

    Hi just subscribe to your channel and found your set up looks great. Can you tell me where you bought the fitting for the smaller gas Bootle please.

    • @hikinginaleakyleftboot

      Hi. I bought it from Go Outdoors. It’s called a Campingaz twin connection CV/R Regulator kit. It’s probably available in other camping shops too.

    Hi. I enjoyed your video! Could you please let me know if your zatooto magnetic curtains are advertised as the side curtains on Amazon? I would like to get some for the rear window of my Berlingo but can't find a specific set for rear windows. I'm assuming that you're using the side ones? Thanks!

    • @hikinginaleakyleftboot
      @hikinginaleakyleftboot  หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Hi. Thank you! Yep, they’re called “ZATOOTO Side Window Sunshades for Car (2pcs)” on Amazon. They’re 72cm across at the top, 48cm length & 92cm across at the bottom. Fit the back window perfectly.

      Thanks a lot - that's really helpful! I'm heading off in my Berlingo for the first time on Sunday 😊

    What size is the bed please? - Both length and width? Thanks.

    • @hikinginaleakyleftboot

      Hi. The bed cushions are 53cm wide at the top beside the unit & 62cm wide at the open end by the sliding door. Length is 142cm without the bed extension & 192cm with the extension laid out properly with both cushions.
