Inside, the bus has been transformed to a high standard with surprisingly spacious interiors. Downstairs, you'll find the original driver's seat and steering wheel preserved in the front cabin, adding a nostalgic touch to your stay.
The bespoke solid wood kitchen is fully equipped with solid oak worktops, a Belfast-style sink, gas cooker with extractor and fridge freezer.
Clever storage has been built into the original buggy rack spaces above the front wheels, keeping everything tidy and functional.
Further down the lower deck is the well-appointed bathroom area, featuring a thermostatic rainforest shower with an additional hose attachment, a flushable macerator toilet, and a sink.
The bus is fully plumbed with a pressurised 1000-litre water system, an easy-access hosepipe connection outside, and a water heater with a programmable timer.
Upstairs, the space opens into a warm and inviting living area, with a comfortable sofa, wall-mounted smart TV, and Wi-Fi throughout.
The front of the upper deck features a bespoke king-size bed positioned perfectly beneath panoramic windows - ideal for relaxing with a view.
Just below is a cosy den space with a futon mattress, perfect for kids or extra guests. At the rear, you’ll find the master bedroom with a handcrafted superking bed, original emergency escape hatch, and plenty of storage.
The upstairs area also benefits from an air conditioning unit with heating, cooling, and dehumidifier settings, while all windows have privacy blinds and curtains.
Ceiling lighting runs on a rechargeable leisure battery for added flexibility.
Outside, a private enclosed garden awaits, with a lawn and raised decking area equipped with outdoor seating - perfect for peaceful mornings or evenings under the stars. There is also a shared treehouse room you are welcome to use and a children's slide.
This one-of-a-kind stay offers the ideal mix of countryside calm and quirky character, whether you're looking for a family getaway, a romantic escape, or just something totally unique.
Come unwind, recharge, and make memories aboard this unforgettable rural hideaway.
Please note this property is located in a rural setting, so from time to time, you may notice the occasional spider web, even shortly after cleaning. We do our best to keep the space spotless, but nature has its own schedule.
Please note when it comes to using the shared treehouse, please be mindful of neighbours and other guests on-site. Please note use of the shared treehouse space and children's slide is at the user's risk.

Quirky, peaceful and well equiped.
In three words.QUIRKY. A converted bus is always going to be quirky. The kids were thrilled playing in the drivers seat and steering wheel.EQUIPPED. It had everything. Great Bbq with a full tool set, outside seating, hammock, cafetia for ground coffee. Sharp knives. Smart TV. Wifi (although slow with muliple devices). Seated decking. It had everything.PEACEFUL. This is situated on the edge of the fields. Nothing but bird noises.The shower was surprisingly spacious.Had a great time just relaxing. Would highly recommend!
