Escape Pod

Perfect for day vans

Looking to transform your van into a camper without a complete conversion? The answer lies in our Escape POD! Designed over a decade ago, this piece of furniture remains a customer favorite, offering all the camping essentials in a compact and budget-friendly package. Specifically designed to fit behind the driver’s seat and seamlessly complement a full-width RIB bed, the Escape POD is a versatile solution. Its adaptable layout allows for customization to meet your specific requirements, and it comes with a bespoke table that expands the worktop area.

Originally tailored for a SWB VW Transporter with a double swiveling passenger seat, the Escape POD has evolved to fit various vehicles. We can tailor the design to accommodate your available space or expand it if needed. While our typical service includes supplying and fitting, you have the option to purchase it fully built or in flatpack form directly from our shop if you prefer a DIY approach. Elevate your camping experience with the practicality and affordability of the Escape POD!
