About The Van: 1975 Viscount Royal "Florabel" Step back in time with Florabel—a 1975 Viscount Royal 13ft that’s a true time capsule! This caravan is in exceptional original condition, offering a glimpse into the past with its vintage charm and high-quality craftsmanship. The woodwork, appliances, and panelling look like they did when they left the showroom nearly 50 years ago. Apart from some exterior sun fade and a few modern updates for safety, Florabel has survived the decades largely untouched! No extensive setup required! With Florabel, you get the option to leave your car free to explore while you enjoy the comfort of a well-preserved retro van. Key Features: Sleeping Capacity: Comfortable for 3 adults, with two single rear beds, and a convertible single dinette at the front. We can also provide a small camp mattress for a child or young teenager—making Florabel an ideal small family van on a budget. Original & Functional: Enjoy off-grid 12V lighting, the original gas stovetop with rangehood, and a two-way fridge that works on both 240V and LPG. Retro Comfort: Features a full-sized hanging locker (wardrobe) and ample storage space for its size. Entertainment: A retro mini DAB FM/AM/Bluetooth radio is available upon request for your listening pleasure. Ease of Towing: At just 13ft long, Florabel is light and easy to tow. Equipped with mechanical brakes, no electric brake controller is needed—just a 7-pin flat plug and a towbar for a smooth towing experience. Why Florabel? Iconic Style: Unlike the sea of modern caravans, Florabel stands out with her vintage design and timeless character. She’s a conversation starter wherever she goes! Simple Luxuries: This van is all about enjoying the simple pleasures of a retro adventure, without the heavy weight and bulk of modern caravans. Perfect for Family Adventures: With its space-efficient layout, it’s a great choice for small families, couples, or friends who appreciate the charm of a classic van and the ease of use. Special Note on The Canvas Annex: Florabel comes with an original canvas annex, which adds to her vintage appeal. However, due to the complexity of setup, the annex is not available for regular hire. Special event requests may be considered—please contact us for more details.

    We had a wonderful week hiring the vintage caravan Florabel. The response to my booking was immediate, and Andrew and Savannah were reliable with outstanding communication throughout the entire process. The service overall was highly satisfying and I wouldnt hesitate to recommend them. Florabel herself was an absolute joy she brought back incredibly fond memories of camping as a child. Everything about the caravan felt beautifully original and was in good working order. The beds were comfortable and provided very pleasant nights sleep all week. I would definitely book with Andrew and Savannah again. Highly recommended.

    Andrew and Savannah provided a real retro cutie caravan for our use - clean and promptly delivered. Our family really enjoyed the use of this little gem at Xmas - we even hung Xmas lights on it! Thanks so much for the opportunity to reach back into the 1970s!

    The van was excellent for what it is. It is a retro van. Simple and very clean. The cooking facilities are basic but worked well. The bedding package was well worth it. Everything was set up ready to go when we arrived. Sleeps two comfortably. Technically it sleeps three but that would be tight. There is no toilet or shower in the van but that is clear in the advertising and the beauty of the van is its retro character. Andrew was really helpful to deal with. We chose the drop off option and found this a great save to having to tow the van ourselves. I would have no hesitation recommending Andrew and Koora van hire if you are after a retro experience.

    The caravan was exactly as it was described online, and the whole process from start to finish was so smooth - even when we threw a curveball at the last minute and asked to add an extra night to our stay. Andrew and Savannah made our camping trip just that little bit sweeter with their knowledge, patience and their easy-going personality. It was a perfect way to ease back into the camping life - a roof over our heads with some of the comforts of a home, but not roughing it on the ground. A 10/10 experience - I can not recommend this small business enough. Will definetly be back in the future. Thank you so much, Andrew and Savannah!
