I have used an adapter without any problems for at least 10 years

You can buy 13pin plugs that allow for two cable entries to accommodate the 12N/12S cables, personally I would avoid that and go for a rewire at the camper end, and take a length of 13 core cable terminated with a 13pin plug.
You will find 8 of the 13 cores will be 1.5mm2 and the remaining 5 will be 2.5mm2, I am sure there will be some youtube tutorials to help you along, just a case of connecting the right wire to the correct pin, how hard can it be.
I would imagine the cost of having the work done professionally, would be in the region of £300, most of that for labour.

Another way might be using https://www.amazon.co.uk/Pin-Conversion-Plug-Caravans-Cables/dp/B009MID11Gthis
I can't find a plug designed to take two wires and keep them watertight.....

Yep dad1uk, maybe some heat shrink and self amalgamating tape would help sort that.
