Don't see why not, but this is from their sign-up page:
"We want to ensure that all members are safe when caravanning and if your outfit is not a standard make we may ask you to send us photographs and a description at a later date."

Ok thanks. I'm already a member but just wondered if they would get funny with me bringing just the van & not our caravan.

If you book online you have the  option to select which 'unit' you will be in. And can add or amend you unit online as well.

Although when I looked at adding our Hiace camper'(basic self build), it required me to select a manufacturer from a drop down list..

There was an "Other" option but even that said

Quote:  "If you select 'Other' the outfit details you enter will be sent through to our Technical team so they can check and verify them within 72 hours."


If it's a decent enough conversion, you'd probably be okay. Although ours would(should!)) meet their criteria, but as it looks quite  basic we didn't  proceed(..and we only really use it for festivals anyway).

Thanks jules. Pepe ours is a basic conversion too. We have insulated our vw, fitted a leisure battery, USB socket, LED lights, tv & a makeshift bed out of a slat system that is in line with the back triple seat when folded forward. It looks really smart & is a newish van (2012) so hopefully they won't have a problem with it.

Hi bigbrood

Well, with a tidy 2012 T5, you'd have a far better chance of being "accepted", than we would with our ..*cough*...somewhat  rustic, 2001 Hiace festival van 

This is lifted from the CC "Add  Outfit" section:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Quote:

Does the accommodation space contain the following equipment:-
  Seats and table
  Sleeping accommodation which can be converted into seats
  Cooking facilities with adequate ventilation
  Storage facilities

All the above must be rigidly fixed to the living compartment, but the table maybe designed to be easily removed.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Although ours would, just about, meet that, we didn't what to risk any stand up rows when booking it....it wouldn't be the best way to start a weekend away......

(..and besides, they can get "funny" enough about parking the right distance from their little pegs! )

So with the Hiace, we now just use a few, well tried, "non-club" sites...

The club permit none members and charge a supplement, depending on how many times you wish to use their sites it may work out cheaper to join.

Hi Ang we are already members. I was just thinking of using a site in Cornwall. I think it was called Treamble? Not to worry now I have found a site in Goonhavern & the owner sounded lovely on the phone. No probs with van.
