The oven that sits on a hob! This amazing little device allows you to cook absolutely anything in a campervan without the need for a built in oven. We bake cakes, bread, roast dinners, chips (the list is endless in ours). Have a look at our Omnia Oven shop to see our Omnia sets which make fantastic presents.

Live Edge Chopping Board - From £30

We might be biased but we think our live edge chopping boards would make fantastic presents. They are things of beauty and are the perfect size for taking away in a campervan. They also double up as serving platters and cheese boards and will definitely help get that perfect instagram eating shot with a view!

Anevay Outdoor Wood Burners - From £79

We adore these stoves which are British made in Cornwall – they really are like taking your indoor space outside making you feel super cosy even on chilly evenings. The are perfect for outdoor cooking and group gatherings.

Don't just take our work for it -check out Camper Dreamin’s Instagram page to see how they use theirs out in the wild. Imagine sitting outside your campervan with an epic view and a roaring woodburner!

There are 2 outdoor burners available:

Horizon Stove – £79

The fabulous compact little rocket stove which is the perfect size to easily fit in any sized campervan storage space. It lights really easily and looks super impressive when the flames come out the top.

We have been using ours for the past few months and it's made us actually want to sit outside and get cosy around a fire. It's great for social gatherings too and makes quite the centrepiece. We have also made delicious pizzas on this amazing rocket stove.

Frontier Stove – £199

The original and best British made frontier stove which was originally used for overseas aid. It gets super warm and and is really cosy to sit around at night. You can also use these in tents and tipi's using an appropriate flashing kit. This stove is also amazingly compact with collapsible legs and chimney which packs down and sits inside the stove when not in use. It can fit in a small carry bag here.

Ooni Pizza Oven - From £250

We have met up with a few fellow vanlifers who have outdoor pizza ovens and they do make absolutely delicious crispy pizzas.

Ooni pizza ovens are what we have experienced and they are very easy to use and they cook amazing pizzas in minutes. They are available as gas powered, charcoal powered, wood fired or multi fuel.

The wood fired ones are possibly the most affordable and easiest to use with any campervan.

Aeropress Go Coffee Maker - £29.99

The Aeropress Go is the perfect portable travel coffee maker which is ideal for campervan trips, camping trips and travel.

It has all the amazing benefits of the original Aeropress but is smaller, lighter and has a drinking mug attached that doubles up as a carrying case.

Campervan Gadgets

Campervan Projector -From £190

We use the Viewsonic M1 mini projector in our campervan and it basically gives you a van cinema! You can snuggle up in bed with the projector on and watch a film super comfy with a bowl of popcorn and have a great night when the weather is foul outside!

We wouldn't be without ours - we love a good film!

Campervan Living & Adventure

Scrubba portable wash bag - £42.00

The Scrubba Wash Bag is a portable clothes washer which is perfect for travellers, camping trips, campervan and motorhome use, backpacking and trekking. Basically for any time you are away from home for a while and won’t have access to a washing machine.

It’s a very simple but clever design which incorporates a washboard inside a dry bag.

Joseph Joseph Drainer - £16.00

The Joseph Joseph drainer is the perfect draining board for a camper van as it folds up and is ultra portable. It's perfect for those who don't have an inbuilt draining board in their campervans. We use it as we opt for sinks without drainers to maximise worksurface space and it stops water spillages getting on our oak worktop.

Inflatable Kayak - From £175

How amazing would it to be to receive a kayak as a present?! Inflatable kayaks make owning a kayak even more doable for everyone as they pack down really small and can easily stored in a campervan rather than needing to install roof racks etc.

We have the Intex K2 explorer kayak and it's a great little kayak for the money. We spent a lot of time reading reviews for other kayaks and this one came out on top for our budget.
