Ever wondered where the name Templerway comes from? 👀

The Templer Way is an 18-mile route running from Haytor on Dartmoor down to Teignmouth, following the historic journey once taken by granite from the moor towards the coast.

And it happens to run through the part of Devon we call home.

Dartmoor at one end. The coast at the other. Plenty to explore in between.

It felt like a pretty fitting name for a business building vans designed to get you out there and exploring it! 🚐

The DVLA has finally updated its motor caravan rules, and it’s good news for a lot of you.

Until now, getting your van changed to “motor caravan” on the logbook meant ticking some odd boxes. Graphics down the side, an awning bar, a high-top roof.

Not anymore. Pop-tops now count, and the graphics and awning bar are gone from the list.

If you were turned down before, you can ask the DVLA to look again.

One thing people often get wrong: the body type on your logbook doesn’t change your insurance or speed limits. It’s just how the DVLA describes what your van looks like.

Not sure where your van stands? Give us a call or pop into the workshop. We’re always happy to have a look.

Pop-top or no pop-top? 🤔🚐

It’s one of the bigger decisions you’ll make when planning a campervan conversion – and one we get asked about a lot.

The extra headroom can completely change how your van feels, while the option of additional sleeping space can make it much more versatile.

But does everyone need one? Not necessarily.

Like most things with a campervan conversion, it comes down to how you’re actually going to use it.

Swipe through for a few things to consider before making the investment. 👉

Planning on taking the van across the Channel?

There’s a little more to think about than deciding where to stop first.

From the documents you need to carry and your insurance cover to UK stickers, emissions zones and country-specific driving kit, it pays to do a bit of homework before you set off.

We’ve pulled together a quick checklist of some of the things to think about before taking your campervan to Europe.

Save this one for the road trip planning – and always check the latest official guidance for every country you’re travelling through before you go.

Now the important question: where are you heading? 👇

You learn a lot about your campervan when the temperature drops. 🍂🚐

Where do the wet coats go? Is there enough light for darker evenings? How well does it hold onto heat? And just how quickly can those windows steam up?

Good campervan design isn’t just about making the most of sunny summer weekends. It’s about creating a space that works when it’s cold, wet and dark outside too.

Here are five things you’ll be glad you thought about before your first autumn in your van. 👉

Summer might be over (😭) but before you either tuck the van away or head off on your autumn adventures, there are a few jobs worth ticking off.

Give it a proper valet, check for any signs of damp or leaks, test the electrics, give the tyres and fluids a once-over and think about draining the water system if it’s going to be sitting unused through freezing weather.

And if you’re not putting it away? Even better. There’s a lot to be said for quieter campsites, crisp mornings and making a coffee in the van while everyone else is at home.

Save this one for your next van admin day. And if your autumn checklist has got you thinking about a few upgrades, you know where we are!

Why we rate the MobiFrame bed system 👌

A proper travelling seat that converts into a comfortable bed, with the flexibility to slide forwards and backwards depending on how you need to use the space.

More room when you need it. A bed when you don’t. Simple. 💥
