THOUGHTS FROM THE WORKSHOP

A family trip to the Euros in an Orange Campers Micro Camper

Updated: Aug 1



One of the Orange Family recently sent us a postcard telling us about their incredible adventures in Germany, and we couldn’t not share with you all too!


John and Lorranine McCusker were the first to buy our Micro Camper when it was launched last summer at the Edinburgh show! And since then, they've been up to all sorts – including a trip to Fort William which you can read about here.

The McCusker's and their sons recently hit the road in their Micro Camper to take on a trip of a lifetime. 

The Micro Camper is a very special Orange Campers conversion designed to be the perfect car-like ‘van for adventuring.

At only 4.96 metres long and 1.93 metres high (including the pop top!), it is still incredibly spacious inside, with an elevated roof bed for more headroom.

As a short wheel-based ‘van, it is great for those with less ‘van driving experience.



Watch Richard show you around one of our Micro Camper ‘vans to give you an idea of the McCusker’s experience...


Here’s what John and Lorraine had to say about their experience…


“The trip was amazing! Four of us in the Van was a challenge 🤦🏻‍♂️ but we managed it. 


We saw lots of places in Germany and met lots of nationalities. The whole trip was memorable, even if the Scotland football team wasn’t that good!”


“The ‘van size isn’t an issue for us. Our van is compact, but we think it is the perfect size.

It's just big enough, and at the same time, it's just small enough.


We can go to a lot of places in towns and cities that motorhomes can't, and we can do narrow single-track roads that motorhomes can't do.


We actually removed the bike rack so we can travel with our bikes inside the ‘van. It's a bit of a tight squeeze, but we do it.”




“As big football fans, we decided to take the ‘van to Germany for two weeks for the Euros 2024. Along with 100,000 other daft Scots! 


And we took both our sons in the ‘van!! Yes, four of us. 

The two boys slept up top. It was cosy, but it was a laugh too.”
