It has been years since I wrote a blog about mine and Julie’s camping adventures but I am going to try and do a few a year to help give similar minded outdoor lovers ideas for new adventures.

Last week we fancied a weekend away with 2 main features.
Number 1 – it must have a […]

Our new member ‘Jules’ the 1972 Westfalia Bay Window Campervan

By |January 24th, 2021|Blog|Comments Off on Our new member ‘Jules’ the 1972 Westfalia Bay Window Campervan

PART 1

Since Canny Campers began in 2009 it never really lived up to its name, being that we started with just 1 campervan and continued like that until 2010. In 2010 instead of buying another campervan we bought ‘Millie’ our 1976 Karmann Cabrio Beetle.

Many years passed and although ‘Millie’ was a lovely vehicle and had […]

Photos from Little Joes Exterior Restoration 2020

By |March 12th, 2020|Blog|Comments Off on Photos from Little Joes Exterior Restoration 2020

Little Joe had a major restoration in 2016, but being a nearly 60 year old piece of automotive history and a wedding vehicle to boot, its important to keep on top of the bodywork.

That’s why it was decided to give the camper a partial respray and some required repairs in 2020.

In 2016 we couldn’t […]

By |September 5th, 2019|Blog|Comments Off on North East’s Popular Wedding Venue’s 2020

array of weddings where I have provided my VW Campervan and VW Beetle, to work
out to which venue’s I attend the most bookings.

The Data Used

I have analysed 121 weddings that I was part of in 2018,
2019 and the future bookings I have so […]

A weekend Camp at Catgill Campsite Bolton Abbey

By |October 9th, 2018|Blog|Comments Off on A weekend Camp at Catgill Campsite Bolton Abbey

Canny Campers HQ has been a strange one this year, we have experienced the busiest season ever but the weddings have been grouped together in such a way that still allows the odd weekend off, which is nice.

October is very quiet so Julie and I have taken the opportunity to use ‘Little Joe’ again as […]

Little Joe’s Full Interior Makeover 2018

By |February 9th, 2018|Blog|Comments Off on Little Joe’s Full Interior Makeover 2018

Little Joe the campervan has always had a split personality. On the one hand he is a home on wheels, loved and used as my personal campervan. On the other hand and let’s be honest due to massive popularity he is mainly a wedding bus, and in my opinion the best wedding bus!

Ever since taking […]
