Four new Tiny Houses with vineyard views have arrived in Coonawarra

Coonawarra Bush Holiday Park in South Australia has added four new Tiny Houses, including two single-storey and two double-storey units. Perched on a hill, they offer views of vineyards and bushland. Each includes a queen bed, kitchenette, bathroom, air conditioning, and a private fire drum. The park also offers glamping tents, cabins, caravan sites, and camping.

Electric camper and round-Australia trip

Clive Attwater and his partner Sue have embarked on a round-Australia trip in an electric camper based on the Farizon SV van. The couple plans to follow a figure-eight route starting from Hobart, passing through Victoria, South Australia, Alice Springs, Darwin, Western Australia, the Nullarbor, Townsville, and the east coast. The camper is equipped with solar panels, a domestic battery, and a fully electric kitchen. The trip aims to demonstrate the feasibility of long-distance electric travel and to inform campground operators about preparing for electric vehicle charging. The cargo van costs between €43,000 and €49,000, with conversion adding €18,000 to €30,500.

Toyota Land Cruiser 78 becomes camper for 5,499 AUD — Summit Vans drops pop-top

Australian builder Summit Vans has introduced a conversion kit for the Toyota Land Cruiser 78 Troop Carrier that does not require a pop-top roof. The base furniture kit costs 5,499 AUD and excludes a fridge, battery, water system and installation. The module includes an L-shaped bench that converts into a 1,910x965 mm bed and a bamboo worktop. Factory assembly in Wollongong starts at 8,499 AUD, with a production lead time of three to four weeks. The vehicle is cramped for full-time living: standing height is not possible inside, and the bed is mainly for one person. However, it retains standard height and can still be used as a regular off-roader between trips.

Electric campervan pioneers caught short and need a tow on first lap of Australia

Clive and Anne Attwater, pioneers of electric campervan travel, ran out of charge 200 meters short of a hill crest that would have allowed them to coast to a charger in Burra, Australia. They called for a tow truck. Clive admitted fault, having ignored his own 'Always Be Charging' rule. Their campervan Lucy averages 242 km of range, varying from 170 to 346 km depending on conditions.
