Barb
About
Barb sleeps comfortably 4 passengers so we would recommend her to families with kids on the first place. A large main bed for 2 with a proper mattress will fold in to give you more space inside if you need to cook, change your clothes etc. A second bed can be set up underneath the main bed and will comfortably accommodate another 2 travelers. The lower bed is foldable and removable (in case of 2 travelers only we’ll remove the bed, and it will provide you with lots of extra storage).
Two 80L water tanks (fresh and grey) provide enough water for cooking in fully equipped kitchen – large fridge, 2 burner stove top, pan, pot, plates, bowls, mugs, cutlery, French press etc. A large inside table sits comfortably 4 people and folds down to give you an extra space if needed.
Barb camper van will save your money for better places than the gas stations - the consumption is only 10L/100km (24 mpg)! The solar system allows you to charge your devices (USB and 110V outlets) anywhere you go. A roof window and a ceiling fan provide fresh air circulation during the summer nights and air-condition will keep you cool if driving on hot Okanagan highways. Barb is also fully isolated, and we installed a strong diesel heater so that will keep you warm in case of cold mountain nights.
Barb is 9ft tall and 19ft long - you will need this dimensions for your ferry reservations.
Camping chairs and a portable table to enjoy a campfire included for free (upon request).

We rented a campervan (Mr. Cap) from Lucie and Pavel in early September for a stay on Vancouver Island. They have young children and were one of the few companies that we found that could accommodate what we wanted in a campervan rental. They understand what it's like to have little ones and we felt safe renting from them.
The campervan was easy to drive, spacious, very clean, organized and well equipped. The design of the campervan was well thought out from the location of lighting and charging ports to the bed and kitchen layout. There was plenty of space for our kid to play in the campervan while we cooked or cleaned. They also had top quality materials in the build. Pavel's cabinet making skills really shine.
The whole process of renting from them was very smooth. Lucie is super friendly and was there to organize the logistics of pick up/drop off and offer extras that we might find useful for our trip. Pavel was available if we had any questions about the campervan during our road trip. Very accommodating.
You can see that they have transformed their passion for travel to include family. They have built a lovely fleet of campervans to share this passion with others to enjoy. We look forward to renting from them again someday. Thank you for helping make our first big family vacation a hassle-free and memorable one.

We would strongly recommend L&P Camper Vans for anyone looking into a British Colombia trip. With Barb, our trusty camper van of choice, we traveled around British Columbia for six sunny weeks checking out amazing mountain bike trials and having a great time. For the majority of our holiday we stayed at campsites and found the camper van to have everything we needed, which for such a long holiday is saying something. We really appreciated how easy the vehicle was to drive, the comfortable bed, ample storage and a good-sized fridge.
You get a personalized and friendly service from Lucie and Pavel, who are fantastic – from the big things (providing a great bike rack, which for a mountain bike holiday was a massive help) to small things (showing us how to use all the features of the vehicle and keeping onto our bike bags to give us more storage room in the van).
We found that a camper van like Barb was at home in the mountain bike world, with other mountain bikers either having a similar set-up as Barb, or coming over for a friendly chat to check out our camper van.

Me and my Girlfriend rented a campervan (Jack) for a two week trip to BC, which included a wedding and various outdoor sports. Jack was a great campervan, incredibly spacious and cleverly done, with all the added extras you'd want for complete comfort. The bed is really comfy, the fans help keep the van nice and cool and I'm sure if we'd needed to use the heater, that would have been great too! L&P had provided the van with all the essentials you might forget, including a complete kitchen set, outdoor seating and a table and even bear spray should the need arrive. A great two person or 4 person family van, I'd recommend Jack and L&P to anyone wanting to visit BC with a Van.
