We have chosen to use a cooker that is very popular on yachts which uses alcohol rather than LPG as the fuel source. The danger with LPG is when there is a problem it can result in a large fire and/or explosion. The Dometic Origo cooker avoids this problem as it uses alcohol which is safely stored in canisters which do not leak even when upside down. The cooker is easily moved so you can cook in the kitchen, outside the van, or down on the beach if that’s what you choose. It is important to refuel the cooker when it is cold. 

When you are on holiday you can take a few minutes to enjoy the simple things in life, we think that coffee is one of those things! We have selected the AeroPress machine for making the perfect brew. Experiment with the hand grinder for beans, different brew times and methods, and who knows perhaps you will be one of the 3000+ people competing in the World AeroPress Championships! www.worldaeropresschampionship.com 

A good night sleep is important so we have a super comfy 13cm foam mattress which has a memory foam topper. The bed is 128cm wide and 197cm tall when made. As a comparison a standard double sized bed is 137cm wide and 187cm tall. 

We have a Maxxair roof vent to help provide fresh air that is required when living, cooking and sleeping in a small space. The vent which can be set to automatically start at a specified temperature can be fully open even during rain giving you peace of mind when you leave the van during the day. In summer the fan creates a lovely gently breeze. In winter it keeps the vehicle well ventilated so minimising any condensation. 

We see a lot of campervans which are bursting at the seams with gear spread over every surface and space. We encourage you to bing as much as you need, but as little as possible. If you are like us then it’s nice to relax in a clean and tidy van so we have created as much storage as possible, as well as a large lockable roof box which can store those inevitable things you need to bring such as suitcases or packs.

We provide a basic pantry including salt, pepper, sugar, tea, instant coffee, a small amount of milk and some cooking oil. Also onboard is toilet paper, toilet chemicals, dishwashing detergent & cleaning supplies. You will want to plan an initial food shop so we suggest you schedule your first stop at Countdown Supermarket which is very close to Christchurch airport. 

We have upgraded the car stereo to a Sony unit which has Apple Carplay and Android Auto. Simply plug in your phone using a USB cable, and you will be able to view and control your phone apps from the stereo screen including maps for navigation and Spotify for music

We include all the other things you will need to enjoy your trip. Plates, cups, cutlery, pots, pans, sheets, blankets, pillows…  see the full list at the top of the page under “inclusions”  and yes there is a kitchen sink!
If there’s something essential you think we have missed, let us know.

Unfortunately, no matter how careful you are, accidents can happen to the vehicle you have hired, and you are responsible for this damage when you have a vehicle on hire. This includes some damage you can’t control such as someone hitting you while parked and not leaving contact information.

Camplify provides insurance for all vehicles – you should be familiar with this page www.camplify.co.nz/hirer-damage-cover as you will be required to pay an ‘excess’ if you have to make a claim.

We strongly encourage you to consider reducing your excess (www.camplify.co.nz/accident-excess) when making your booking. You are driving an unfamiliar vehicle on unfamiliar roads, so should the worse happen, a $500 excess will be a lot easier to swallow than the Risk Taker policy, which has a $3000 excess. This season we have had two guests use insurance claims from the first eight bookings.

Don’t worry if you’ve struck a roadblock. Mighway have partnered with NZ Roadside Assistance www.nzra.co.nz to bring you premium roadside assistance. They will get you back on track in no time.
