Quality and craftsmanship
Camper King is based in Oxfordshire and has earned its national reputation by focusing on quality. It produces campervans that are not only robust and reliable but also stylish, well designed and truly aesthetically appealing. With the company’s roots in converting Volkswagen Transporter vans, Camper King has leveraged years of expertise to make bespoke campervans – high quality lifestyle vehicles - tailored for modern vanlifers.
Layouts maximise space, the interiors are stylish and hardwearing, and essential facilities such as kitchens, storage and seating are comfortable and convenience. Each van is expertly crafted to meet a range of needs, so whether you're after a romantic getaway, an adventure-packed weekend of exploring, or a home-on-wheels for a longer holiday, a new Camper King campervan will enhance that choice. Each of the models available at Continental has its own strengths.
