Our new range of luxury camper furniture will allow customer’s to enjoy the
installation and conversion process themselves, without having to build there
own furniture.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For many, converting is a hobby, but it can be a difficult,
time consuming and expensive task. Leisure Hubs understand that the conversion
process is as exciting as it is costly; that’s why we’re now designing
furniture which you can easily install at home. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On the flip-side, paying for a full conversion complete with
appliances is even more expensive, so in the interest of saving money
(especially in the current financial climate) buying furniture tailored to your
van and installing it by hand is not only easy but economical. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzLd3AnzjJTAiYapb98wgrJPuzs9Pm6K2moKQSeFsCPlQgw0KyN-CuXgD_DNVzYQL_ZeKGteTgUo6orLJDevHc1tZuPdbqsgVDH1L9yIPJ0g76OTknxWL8jj-YSO_JVy20vVivWgWcfIA/s1600/Table.png" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjzLd3AnzjJTAiYapb98wgrJPuzs9Pm6K2moKQSeFsCPlQgw0KyN-CuXgD_DNVzYQL_ZeKGteTgUo6orLJDevHc1tZuPdbqsgVDH1L9yIPJ0g76OTknxWL8jj-YSO_JVy20vVivWgWcfIA/s320/Table.png" width="320" /></a>So how do you get started? All you need to begin creating
the camper of your dreams is give us a call and book a consultation either face
to face or over the phone, we’ll then measure up your van’s interior and
discuss with you the exact specifications, finish and appliances you desire. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We will then build furniture to your exact requirements, making
sure that it fits flush with your vans interior for an easy install. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We offer an unrivalled range of appliances, real wood veneer
and laminate finishes, as well as stunning Corian work tops, so your camper
furniture parallels the quality of a modern home kitchen. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Designed by our team of experts from high quality
lightweight ply, the furniture comes ready built for a simple install, but we
do have plans to design a flat pack variant which can be shipped throughout
Europe. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
If you would like to transform your van into a luxury camper
but are worried about the money you could spend on handing over your beloved
vehicle to a converter then look no further; Leisure Hubs deliver a premium
design that you can install at home.<br />
<br />
Leisure Hubs is displaying its new furniture range at Busfest this weekend (6th - 8th September). We hope to see you all there!</div>

After a little tweaking and a couple more shows under our belt, both our Toffee Brown T5 and Black T5 are for sale once again.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With the recent good weather and the beautiful days we spent at this year’s Camper Jam, we’re certainly in the mood for campvanning, as we’re sure you are, and what better way to do it then in one of our Leisure Hubs campers.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With our recent developments purely in the furniture department of the business, it’s finally time to let our beloved campervans go to make way for our latest venture, as we already have a portfolio packed with exclusive furniture designs.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It’s no secret that purchasing a ready converted campervan can be expensive, but in the interest of moving forward with our furniture designs, we’re offering our two show vans each at a knockdown price.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Both being fresh from Camper Jam means that they’re in great shape as we’ve made every effort to make sure they’re in top condition for the public as well as for resale.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcfSnSLqyADIP8EcBP-CZB4UxtHDKKJwpqczlGaRGx8Oexx8K7XIwtCBTcCWe5xOZ879INp9GqWTininNHLjSmeNkjU4Q7pkJYSCumkRsY4HKr9dD4De9LhB64dOl6t3DRcTZah3aS7EU/s1600/brown+van.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcfSnSLqyADIP8EcBP-CZB4UxtHDKKJwpqczlGaRGx8Oexx8K7XIwtCBTcCWe5xOZ879INp9GqWTininNHLjSmeNkjU4Q7pkJYSCumkRsY4HKr9dD4De9LhB64dOl6t3DRcTZah3aS7EU/s320/brown+van.jpg" width="320" /></a>Our Toffee Brown LWB T30 140 is the ultimate in comfort and style, combining an exclusive interior set up which differs greatly from the standard “out of the box” furniture arrangements you get with most converters.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Cleverly designed to make full use of the living space, our Toffee Brown van is complete with a side facing electric bed with the kitchen unit and storage located at the rear, providing a look which is not only exclusive but also practical and functional.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With the kitchen unit and storage all located at the rear, the camper’s appliances are confined to one area, giving you more space to relax and segregate yourself from the kitchen area; perfect when camping with friends and family as to not get under each others feet.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As well as being aesthetically pleasing with its two tone quilted leather interior and stunning Tigerwood veneer, the van is complete with a 39litre fridge, a full length wardrobe, storage in the rear with tambour doors, a side facing electric bed, vanity unit, pop up plugs and USB ports and a concealed coffee maker which drops down mechanically by the flick of a switch.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Providing a stunning combination of functional features and truly unique styling, the Toffee Brown T5 is in a league of its own and is guaranteed to provide any campervan enthusiast years of enjoyment.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Priced at £38k and with just 1300 miles on the clock, the van has only been used to drive to and from shows; so the lucky buyer will be getting a virtually brand new van, full converted with some of the best features on the market at a bargain price.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZrV3-XdviwObOx5bg2O1TkYdCyDR1QZBjvb8N0jbLzGdY5qCNEqkwVcCLF1KD83vkhYcbkUcTt9k96jfTrJaefrZo37BUlZA6b9DASWFk5GC5eR7eFLfhL2KEu12UHE3CvfxGvm-isWw/s1600/shower.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjZrV3-XdviwObOx5bg2O1TkYdCyDR1QZBjvb8N0jbLzGdY5qCNEqkwVcCLF1KD83vkhYcbkUcTt9k96jfTrJaefrZo37BUlZA6b9DASWFk5GC5eR7eFLfhL2KEu12UHE3CvfxGvm-isWw/s320/shower.JPG" width="240" /></a>Moreover, we’re selling our Deep Pearl Black T5 Transporter with our exclusive heated rainforest shower built into the tailgate, an innovation in itself and a steal for 35k with just 3800 miles on the clock.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
First let’s concentrate on the vans most popular feature, the heated shower. Our black van has seen several shows throughout the UK and our heated rainforest shower always steals the show; people just cannot believe how we managed to pack a full functioning heated shower into the tailgate.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With its stylish fixed head and easy to use design, the shower supplies a multitude of practicality, whether staying fresh while taking a long trip in the UK or Europe, using it to clean mucky dogs after a walk across the countryside or to clean surfboards or sports equipment, the shower is a simple, compact solution.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of course, this van isn’t just about the shower, it also has a living area which is packed with features including a pop up TV which is recessed into the Corian work surface and is revealed via an electric mechanism and can then be swivelled to face the seating area (which is also a comfy rock and roll bed).</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As well as being able to relax in front of the TV, the interior also offers a fully functioning kitchen including a hob and sink combi, 39litre drawer fridge and generous storage for all your essentials; making the campervan as convenient and comfortable as possible with enough features to mirror the functionality of a modern home kitchen.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Both our campervans are the highest quality designs, and these two show vans have lead us to several conversion opportunities for various clients thanks to their show stealing presence at campervan shows within the UK.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Having served us proud its now time to let another keen camper to enjoy each and every benefit of not just these great vans but also the campervan lifestyle which goes with them.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Camper Jam is nearly upon us!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
After months of anticipation
getting our brand new furniture ready for this weekend, we can finally breathe
a sigh of relief as we’re ready to show the world once again what Leisure Hubs
is all about. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
For this years show we’ll be taking a different approach to
normal, displaying our new range of furniture which is available ready –built or
flat pack, so you can easily fit and install the furniture into your van. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of course we still take a personal approach to the
furniture, meeting with our customers and discussing viable furniture solutions
that will turn their van into an exclusive Leisure Hub, with all the functionality
and style of a modern home kitchen. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Constructed using the best wood and Corian, <a href="http://www.leisurehubs.com/camper-furniture.asp">Leisure Hubs furniture</a> sets itself apart from the rest of the market with our wealth of
experience in luxury furniture design and the ability to create innovative
designs tailored to your vehicle; increasing space and functionality in your
van. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With all this in mind, we hope to see you all at Camper Jam
this weekend as the show is set to be an absolute corker, with bands, a funfair
and our personal favourite…the food village.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So, if you’d like to view some of the best luxury camper
furniture on the market this weekend, then pay us a visit at Camper Jam and we
can discuss a design best suited to your van.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

A new van has arrived in our workshop and it’s a fan favourite! This old VW camper is the vehicle which originated the concept of modern campervanning to this day, with its innovative design pioneered by hippies during the sixties.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of course the old type 2 was available in several other practical options, as a panel van, flatbed pick-up truck and mini bus, all of which are a rare find in today’s vintage car scene.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This old so and so sitting in our workshop is set for a full interior conversion, with our trademark luxury furniture and state of the art features, as well as full carpeting and flooring; breathing new life into this classic design.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Once we begin work, we’ll keep you updated with our progress, as it sure is an interesting project worth talking about. Why not drop a comment below and tell us what you think should go in this van? Or maybe you've converted your own camper and would like to share your favourite pictures?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As passionate camper converters, we're very excited about finally getting our hands on a classic camper to convert with the Leisure Hubs palette of ideas. </div>
<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">

At Leisure Hubs we’re lucky enough to do a job that we love
and are passionate about.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Many people choose to convert their own vans at home as a
continuous project and a hobby, and we must say, we agree that converting van
is a hobby if you enjoy getting your techy cap on and tinkering with your
interior. </div>

provide a service to make your dreams come true using the best the market can
offer. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We’re now looking to expand our business further and employ
a new campervan converter that has the same passion for vans as we do. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The applicant must be well schooled in conversions, have a
good understanding of Leisure Hubs as a brand and of course be crazy about
campers!</div>

Two of our latest conversions have followed a similar trend,
utilising an Unwin floor rail system. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Floor rail systems are traditionally used to house wheelchairs in your vehicle, providing a secure system to hold a chair in place.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Recently, we’ve used Unwin floor rail systems in our
conversions for customers who are looking for the ultimate versatile solution. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The beauty of floor rail systems is the many options they
provide, from allowing you to add seats, to creating further boot space for you
to carry bikes and extra luggage.</div>

By simply adding seats to a slide rail system you can
transform your van from a crew cab with generous boot space in the rear, to a
camper with a huge living space as soon as the seats are slid back into position.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of course, this also leaves plenty of space for a rock and
roll bed, converting your van into the ultimate living area, ideal for camping.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Moreover, adding rails also allows you to add and remove
seats/beds, giving you the option to use your camper as a van during the week
–may it be for work or general transportation- and as a traditional campervan
at the weekend. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With so much versatility to be gained from adding a floor
rail system to your van you can be safe in the knowledge that your camper can
be chopped and changed with minimal effort to suit your situation, a much
needed feature in the ever-changing modern world. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
The sun is finally shining over the <st1:country-region w:st="on">UK</st1:country-region>, even treating the grey sky of <st1:place w:st="on">Birmingham</st1:place> to a glimpse of
summer. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Any self respecting camper will already be planning a trip
this weekend, as its not very often this weather lasts in the UK.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We’ll certainly be kidding ourselves that the weather is a
lot nice then it actually is, enduring the cool breeze on our bare legs simply
because the sun is out, so we’re sure you’ll be too. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
If you’ve already started packing your best shorts and
Hawaiian shirts for a long weekend in Kings Lynn, then you may want to start
thinking about summery foods to add an extra element to your experience. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Salads get a bit of bad press amongst campers, many families
opting for bacon sandwiches over a freshly tossed plate of crunchy salad. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
There really is no need to abolish salad from your holiday
diet. It’s cheap, easy, only requires a fridge or cool box to store it and it’s
also the perfect compliment to the total meat festival you often encounter on
campsites, especially if somebody’s brought along a BBQ. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As a keen camper, you’ve probably got a hob and sink combi
or some form of stove equivalent, so we’ve got a robust salad that will sit as
a stand alone meal and certainly fill you and your family up as well as being tasty and healthy.
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The beauty of owning a hob in your camper is that it allows
you add the most filling components of a good salad, such as pasta, rice and
cooked meat; so here goes…</div>

2 sirloin steaks</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
300g fusili pasta</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
5 tbsp of red wine</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
1 shallot</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Sugar</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
1 tbsp of chopped parsley</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Large bag of mixed salad leaves (we recommend bistro salad)</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
1 pack of cherry tomatoes </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
Parmesan cheese shavings </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
First up, you need to marinade the beef. This can take
between 1 and 2 hours, so try and remember to do this early on in the day.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Simply add the 2 sirloin steaks to a dish and add half a
chopped shallot, the red wine, parsley, 6 tablespoons of olive oil and finish with
a sprinkle of black pepper.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Next, boil the fusili
pasta until al dente. It’s times like these you will really start to appreciate
your hob and sink combi, allowing to use the hob to cook the pasta and sink to
drain. Once ready, simply leave to cool. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Grab a large bowl and add the mixed salad, spinach, olives,
pasta and cherry tomatoes (we recommend you chop both the olives and tomatoes
in two). </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Last boring part. Finally chop the remaining half shallot
and mix with 3 tablespoons of olive oil, 3 tablespoons of balsamic vinegar and
a pinch of sugar. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Now for the fun bit. Heat a pan until smoking hot, remove
the steaks from the marinade and place in the pan. Cook the meat to your liking
unless you like it well done, in that case please stop reading this blog and
become a vegetarian!</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Finally, it’s time to add the all the elements together.
Arrange the medley of mixed leaves, spinach, pasta, tomatoes and olives on
plates, finely chop the steaks, pour over the dressing and sprinkle over
parmesan. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As the salty olives, dressing, piping hot steaks and cheese infuse
together and the smell engulfs your camper, we’re sure you’ll soon become a fan
of salad: we certainly are! </div>

<br />
After stripping the interior of a van the first hurdle is to fit a lining. The <a href="http://www.leisurehubs.com/campervan-lining.asp">van lining</a> may look
like the most basic of steps, but it is in fact one of the most important.
<img border="0" height="180" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgHR_knTW6j8oNj5bTCLMsunVP3dXFlGngLlm30uM-QhbBUX4eZx6-7X6oTtoY3zg2yp30dgEZhxj3QFZHSiPCj_1a11plwNytPizKx4FvfQx0NGLo-pAPyM88O0Tno3JexrSGTbMUjYSo/s320/Sound+deadening.jpg" width="320" /><br />
<br />
A van lining not only
provides a stylish surface to cover the metal cocoon, it can also provide insulation and sound deadening, giving you premium comfort.<br />
<br />
When discussing the conversion process with our clients, we offer a range of different lining options, from sheep or rock wool insulation to PUNF foam and WB barrier matting.<br />
<br />
Sheep’s wool insulation is a great way to create a cosy camper: why? Sheep’s wool is made up of thousands fibers packed closely together, with enough tiny gaps to trap air, heat up and in turn keep your van insulted.<br />
<br />
Of course, sheep’s wool is natural, provides great and most importantly in a vehicle, sheep’s wool extinguishes itself when set a light.<br />
<br />
Rockwool insulation is another natural solution to insulation, combining natural rocks and minerals, which are then heated to form a tightly interlaced roll of fibers. The benefits of
Rockwool insulation are similar to sheep’s wool, providing 4 major advantages:<br />
<br />
<ul>
<li>Fire resistance</li>
<li>Noise reduction</li>
<li>Long lasting durability</li>
<li>Sustainable</li>
</ul>
<br />
<br />
With each of these benefits in mind, Rockwool insulation is not only hard wearing and economical but it is also 97% recyclable, leaving you safe in the knowledge that your
insulation is as ethical as it is practical.<br />
<br />
In addition to both our sheep’s wool and Rockwool linings, we also use PUNF foam for even more
acoustic advantages.
PUNF foam is a flexible acoustic barrier concept which provides exceptional performance, especially when used in a van conversion.<br />
<br />
Married with one of our state of the art sound system installations courtesy of Rockford Fosgate, is a match made in heaven, for unrivalled acoustics ideal for trips away.<br />
<br />
After developing the perfect combination of insulation and acoustics for your van, it is simply a matter of choosing lining boards and carpet, available in a range of colours including: Silver, Smoke, Heather, Graphite, Anthracite, Ocean Blue, Navy Blue, Prussian Blue, Sand, Wheat, Stone and Burgundy.<br />
<br />
With an abundance of different linings on offer, Leisure Hubs can provide the ultimate insulation and acoustic preference; paralleling the premium furniture designs and entertainment systems built into your camper, for a complete home away from
home.<br />

<div class="MsoNormal">
At <a href="http://www.leisurehubs.com/">Leisure Hubs</a>, we’re all about comfort, whether we’re developing cleverly designed interiors to maximise your space, inserting additional padding into (often hard) roof beds, or adding an integral rain forest shower to a conversion to keep you and your family and friends fresh.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHkee-vYtr_WqbvWFsaZDJfYeDR72-F905mN4NwE_-0-g1ELsDJjdOK1PSeTKFPSJ12PxNhFLGqbMX4XTm_T4YvXRNkpFVH21SsKywYCUhpKU-Ckysv6h64fnBDpLNDvK8j52Nay1XEHZ9/s1600/rock-and-roll-bed.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="202" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiHkee-vYtr_WqbvWFsaZDJfYeDR72-F905mN4NwE_-0-g1ELsDJjdOK1PSeTKFPSJ12PxNhFLGqbMX4XTm_T4YvXRNkpFVH21SsKywYCUhpKU-Ckysv6h64fnBDpLNDvK8j52Nay1XEHZ9/s320/rock-and-roll-bed.jpg" width="320" /></a>One of the key features of any van conversion, is the rock and roll bed installation.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A good rock and roll bed is the only way to stay comfortable and relaxed when out camping, especially when away for several days at a time; nobody wants to struggle sleeping or experience back pain over a good week.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
In the interest of keeping Mum and Dad from moaning all the way through a holiday, we supply only the best bed systems on the market, offering top manufacturers such as Touch of Class, Bebb and Ribb and Cannon Forge.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A Rock and Roll bed allows the back seat of your camper to be converted into a bed with a ‘rock and roll’ action, providing a functional mechanism which transforms in seconds.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Another term you will come across when searching for a rock and roll bed is ‘crash tested’. A crash tested bed does exactly what it says on the tin, it has been tested to remain safe during an accident, leaving your passengers as safe as possible.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Purchasing a bed which is not crash tested is still legal to use but you are running the risk of the seat/bed being unsafe during an accident. Non crash tested beds still have their place in the market though, as they are a much cheaper option and ideal for those who are only using their camper as a 2 berth; allowing both people to sit in the front when traveling and only using the bed at the back when stationary.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Each bed system we supply promises premium comfort and a functional design, with the choice of both crash tested and none crash tested concepts to choose from, depending on your budget and preference.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When considering a Leisure Hubs conversion we offer a range of different options, including rock and roll beds combined with slide rail systems for the ultimate in convenience.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
We’ve covered quite a few of the <st1:place w:st="on">UK</st1:place>’s camping hotspots so far in our
‘Where to Camp?’ series of blogs. But sometimes, to really experience the great
outdoors in its most natural and primitive state, wild camping is the solution.
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqRj22OXVBcVNv12BvBmeyWuxFgHxs0-B38mpae3dpZKODbeDz_F2cYg4BvZ9_Kcz3yBJMdyjH1sJQ_0yRJBHcDsyonHxEF5ZKokZEjt3IQPwWwphty7GfEz73azHJkm5rnB4LrtjaC9g/s1600/Wild+Camping.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="226" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiqRj22OXVBcVNv12BvBmeyWuxFgHxs0-B38mpae3dpZKODbeDz_F2cYg4BvZ9_Kcz3yBJMdyjH1sJQ_0yRJBHcDsyonHxEF5ZKokZEjt3IQPwWwphty7GfEz73azHJkm5rnB4LrtjaC9g/s320/Wild+Camping.jpg" width="320" /></a>Wild Camping is simply camping without boundaries, not being
confined to the walls, rules and regulations of a campsite.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
If you’ve got all or most of the facilities in your
campervan then why pay for a campsite?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Granted there are many advantages to using a campsite which
exclude the range of facilities, such as the atmosphere and new people you meet
on site, but to really get to grips with nature, wild camping is the ultimate
freedom. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of course, there are some legalities to get around when wild
camping. In <st1:country-region w:st="on">England</st1:country-region>,
you must ask the permission of the land owner to wild camp, but there are many
exceptions, especially if you are situated far away from a local campsite.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Most land owners simply require you to leave the site as you
found it, clearing all litter, burying toilet waste, taking into consideration local
wildlife, not making too much noise and keeping your stay to one or two nights.
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
On the other hand, in <st1:place w:st="on">Scotland</st1:place>, the rich countryside is your
oyster, with wild camping being completely legal, although some landowners may
enforce certain rules upon their land or remain except from the law. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It’s up to you to respect landowner’s wishes in both <st1:country-region w:st="on">England</st1:country-region> and <st1:place w:st="on">Scotland</st1:place> as it’s more than likely
you’re the one going to the toilet on their property, so maintaining a high level of etiquette and understanding is essential and you should always be prepared to
leave on short notice. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Legalities aside, the benefits of wild camping are in
abundance, allowing you the unrivalled freedom of pulling up your handbrake
near enough anywhere and enjoy the scenery. It also allows you to make the most
of your campervan, utilising each of its features rather then opting for the
easy option of going to an on site restaurant or communal showers.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Not only do you get to grips with nature but you also keep
costs at an all time low, not having to pay for a campsite or its facilities,
leaving you extra money in your pocket to spend on important things like
premium sausages and real ale. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Leisure Hubs van conversions are a great way to provide all
the essentials for wild camping; our built in <a href="http://www.leisurehubs.com/surfing-shower.asp">rain forest shower</a> especially.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
One of the many great things about owning a campervan is
that it allows you to get up and go any time of the year, almost every weekend
can be dedicated to a new location.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of course, making the most of your camper might mean
travelling in some less savoury weather conditions. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Fortunately, our conversions are built to provide the
cosiest possible design, with sheep’s wool insulation and a Webasto diesel
heater; but even with these features considered, who wants to eat salad over a
real winter warmer? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This delicious sausage and bean casserole is the perfect
blend of warming ingredients to line your stomach for a day out in the country
or a cosy night in.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
As with all our recipes, you can cook this simply using basic
camping facilities, it can be chopped and change to suit your taste, can serve
as many as you like and is both nutritious and hearty.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This recipe uses one hob ring, requires minimal preparation and is really easy to make, enjoy! </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We’ve recently made a couple of videos and uploaded them to our <a href="http://www.youtube.com/channel/UCPPx7TX2Nvq_z1AbxPgbgdQ?feature=watch">YouTube channel</a> for you to get a better idea of the conversion service we offer.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Our first video looks at our latest conversion, a customer’s van tailored to his personal needs with no expense spared.<br />
<br />
<iframe allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="315" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/1RroO_wFzZ0" width="560"></iframe></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The video looks at the functional build of the T5 4 Motion, with its pop top roof, practical L-shaped work space with Corian work surface and integral appliances, bed with under bed storage, rain forest shower and sumptuous modern finish throughout. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The second video looks at our Black T5 Transporter, which has been cleverly design to showcase some of our most prestigious features, including the rainforest shower and motorised pop up TV.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
At Leisure Hubs we love a challenge, that’s why we don’t stick to the traditional template of standard van conversions. We offer a limitless range of features which you can chop and change to suit your lifestyle, and our videos give a taster of some of what we are capable of, the only limit being your imagination.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So, take a look at our first two promotional videos and tell us what you think. They may even inspire your own design!</div>

due to the weather; sorry!</div>

After checking the weather in the morning it didn’t seem
practical for us to take out the vans and stand in a snowy field for a weekend,

<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We’re really sorry to those who were looking to see our

attending the Volksworld show next year if we haven’t entered a new ice age

Sometimes the capacity of a campervan can be overlooked;
when installing furniture and a bed, sometimes you can be under the
misconception that your beloved camper will hold an entire family.<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With two seats in the front and two in the back (with an expendable bed) the initial impression is that the van can play home to four
people.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Unfortunately, that’s not the case with the majority of van
conversions as the accurate berth of a campervan should be based on how many
the van can sleep rather then transport. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
That’s where a sleeping roof comes in, to gain a true 4
berth campervan, a roof bed is the ideal solution for sleeping a family
of 4. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
An extension to the traditional pop top roof, a sleeping
roof houses a further two people, using an easy to use mechanism which allows
for additional space for both people and camping equipment, leaving your camper
clutter free. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We’re frequently asked by customers to develop a pop top
roof for their conversions. A pop top creates the perfect living space,
allowing for additional head room, ideal for cooking and general use. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEil09awUXG-K4h8sExuCZxWDZZfXiW3_2NraNEG0vUxw8okabfD7VA-81VUhPsL3zcCsztMvCnruT6yvLeoFwPK2vsCRVdUfoyCqj8AcD8ac1NltRD4o2nyO8OJgC9yBQvCvaViVHJB170/s1600/pop+top.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="clear: right; float: right; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-left: 1em;"><img border="0" height="212" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEil09awUXG-K4h8sExuCZxWDZZfXiW3_2NraNEG0vUxw8okabfD7VA-81VUhPsL3zcCsztMvCnruT6yvLeoFwPK2vsCRVdUfoyCqj8AcD8ac1NltRD4o2nyO8OJgC9yBQvCvaViVHJB170/s320/pop+top.jpg" width="320" /></a>By adding a roof bed, you are increasing the capacity of the
camper two fold, a worthwhile purchase to make when space is already at a
premium. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
When planning your conversion consider how much your camper
can truly hold and think about the benefits an additional roof bed can have on
your camper. It is the equivalent of buying a two bedroom house when a four
bedroom is just a little bit more!<br />

At Leisure Hubs we try our best to convert campers in a way

Mobile internet has rapidly become an integral part of
modern living; life simply wouldn't be the same without access to emails,
social networks and video streaming in the palm of your hand. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
We understand that for many, internet access is an essential

The Leisure Hubs mobile WiFi ‘LeisureNet’ is our solution to
maintaining your connection when away, supplying a 3G-based internet system
which works similarly to a mobile dongle you’d use with a laptop; allowing you
to choose a network (whether it be pay as you go or contract) insert it in your
router and begin surfing the web. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Nothing can parallel the convenience of being able to access
the internet from the comfort of a campsite, and you can decide to lock your
network or make it open to the public, just like your home router. You can choose to share your network with others and even get people to contribute to your bill; A great way
to enjoy social networking, games and videos while on the move. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Nothing beats the feeling of supplying one of our customers
with a top of the range conversion, and our latest customer is over the moon
with his. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
A few weeks ago we began plans to convert Mr Fisher’s <a href="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=330885596426&ssPageName=STRK:MESE:IT">4Motion DSG</a>; already a great standard van, we jumped at the chance to provide our
customer with a premium conversion with all the luxury features a Leisure Hubs
conversion is famed for. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The completed van includes: a pop up 17” swivel mounted TV
set into a stylish iced blue Corian work surface, plenty of storage with
cabinets with a curved tambour door and soft closing drawers, a 39 litre slide
out fridge freezer, Our rainforest shower built into the tailgate with 18
minutes worth of hot running water, TUV rated swivel seats, Reimo pop top roof and
roof bed, and a top of the range Webasto diesel heater with automatic timers,
to name a few. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The completed conversion cost just £17,000 and provided the
van with a complete luxury conversion that sleeps 4 people, the perfect design
for family camping holidays and road trips. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We’re very proud of our latest design and we think the

It doesn’t take a genius to work out that at <a href="http://www.leisurehubs.com/">Leisure Hubs</a> we
love coffee. With conversion deadlines to meet, we’re no stranger to working

<div class="MsoNormal">
Providing fresh coffee with just 25 seconds heating time,
the coffee maker is fast and efficient as well as stylish, with a steel handle,
aluminium side panels and a choice of six colours and two finishes. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
We love the Nespresso Pixie so much that we’ve even added it
to our <a href="http://www.camperpamper.com/kitchenpods/Colina-Kitchen-Pod.asp">Colina kitchen pod</a> as an option. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Colina provides a simple slide out cupboard which plays
home to the compact proportions of the coffee maker, allowing the handy utensil
to be neatly tucked away after use. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We may have a harmless obsession with the Nespresso Pixie
but so far it’s paid off. The more late nights we have working on the vans
though, the more we may begin cramming a coffee maker into every nook and cranny!</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Both Leisure Hubs and Camper Pamper strive to develop truly unique designs, that’s why our campers are not the standard conversion
design which you can find with other companies. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

After we completed our first couple of Camper Pamper kitchen
pods it became apparent we were on to something special. Our background in

CNC, by the best craftsmen and using the best materials. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
With designs which set us aside from general market trends,
we decided to work alongside ACiD (Anti Copying in Design) and get each of our
designs <span lang="EN-GB">recognised</span><span lang="EN-GB"> </span>as our own work., free from copying, so you can be safe in
the knowledge you are getting an original design. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We believe that when you’re buying into camper furniture you
should be buying into a product exclusive to your van, that’s why we provide <span lang="EN-GB">customisable</span> options for each
of our kitchen pods; with a range of finishes, features and designs on offer to
bespoke your kitchen pod to suit not only your camper but your lifestyle. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
It’s easy to get into a routine, year in year out, visiting
the same ‘safe’ campsite which you know and love. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Of course, this may not necessarily be your fault, campsite
horror stories can be some of the worst, and nobody wants to be part of a
campsite’s Nazi regime, being made to have cold showers in public, eat gruel or
be harassed by noisy campers. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
It’s safe to say that once you’ve experienced one bad
campsite it can put you off spreading your wings, but when a campsite becomes
your second home, lovely as it is, it takes away the freedom a campervan
offers. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
If you’ve not already upped and left the comfort of your own
home for one of the amazing locations we’ve featured so far then maybe it’s
time to give somewhere new a try, as there are plenty of locations across the
UK desperate accommodate you. </div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Despite being rife with stunning visuals, wildlife and activities, the lush British countryside unfortunately is not home to any kebab shops or takeaways; making life a little harder if you are not well versed in cooking.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Often being limited to one hob ring, it can be a difficult task to create home <span lang="EN-GB">favourites</span> when cooking facilities are at the bare minimum, but that doesn’t mean great <span lang="EN-GB">flavours</span> can’t be made with a little bit of inspiration and skill. This recipe is exclusively for campers with at least one hob and a grill.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Pizza is certainly a recipe never associated with camping - unless you're camping in Pizza Hut car park that is. Traditionally pizza requires an oven which is great news for those who have an oven installed in their van conversion but more often then not campers exclusively use hobs and a grill.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Fear not, the one pan pizza allows you to enjoy the taste of <st1:country-region w:st="on">Italy</st1:country-region> while enjoying British scenery and its nearly as easy as chucking a frozen one in the oven. Feel free to add and replace ingredients to get the perfect pizza. </div>
