James’s long military career as an RAF Officer resulted in lots of time away from home. After his retirement, we made the decision to reset our lives. This began with a year long family trip where we travelled across Canada and America with our two young children in our small self converted van. Having spent previous years working together on various property developments, whilst in full time employment, we focused on this on our return. Homesmith Campers evolved from building property to van conversions through our love of overland travel. James has specialised his training in carpentry and electrics, concentrating his focus on small scale off grid projects. After years of military experience on operations and adventures where kit organisation and attention to detail is mission critical, he combines carefully considered craftsmanship with thoughtful design. He is methodical in his planning and ensures every design detail is well thought through and the space is specifically tailored to your needs. ​ James leads every build from start to finish, ensuring each campervan is crafted with the care and precision we stand for.

Having navigated the world from a suitcase for 14 years as British Airways Longhaul Crew, Sarah is passionate about travel and excellent customer service. She knows how important it is to accurately create small spaces of comfort for every journey and understands the specifications required to live comfortably and work effectively on a small scale. She takes pride in building great relationships with our clients to understand their needs and ensures that they are fully involved in the build process.
