In Person Outer Hebrides / Na h-Eileanan Siar Studio Vans 21 September 2024 The team at Studio Vans’ island base in Benbecula builds lifelong modular campervan fitouts designed to outlast a typical van and carry on to the next. A key facet of Studio Vans design lies in sustainability. The notion of a travel lifestyle has historically sacrificed aesthetic design and people have found it difficult to travel in an environmentally conscious way in a van. Challenging customers to do things more sustainably is one of the key motivations for our practice. View Details Facilities WC Refreshments Disabled Access Disabled WC Parking
