01 · Our Story
Fán started in an Irish shed,
with one good idea and a lot of timber.
That a campervan shouldn't feel like plastic. It should feel like a small home. Warm timber underfoot, soft seats you'd want to nap in, a kettle that always knows where to sit on the move.
We're a new studio, building slowly and one van at a time, so the people we work with get our full attention, and the road can be lived in for a long time.

Meet the maker
Hey, I'm Izzy.
The main woman behind Fán Campervan Conversions.
I spent 15 years working in high level motorsport as an engineer whilst travelling the world. The nature of motorsport is fast paced and I grew tired of going all over the place and only seeing airports, hotels and race tracks, so I decided to leave motorsport and build a campervan to travel around Europe in.
I did one five month trip where I visited 19 countries and I was hooked immediately. When I got back I worked as a van builder for a reputable company in the UK for a year, while living full time van life. But I couldn't resist the urge to go travelling in my van again. This time only three months and eight countries, but I ended up in Ireland and fell in love with the place. I'm still here now, two years later.
My motorsport engineering background has given me a wealth of knowledge about how to make vehicles last in the harshest environments. My four years of full time van life has given me the experience to know how to build a van to actually use, whether it's for a weekend or for a year.
02 · The Vision
No two Fáns will ever look the same.
We don't do packages. Every conversion starts as a blank van and a conversation. These are the kind of details and finishes we believe in.
Built for the long weekend and the longer one.

02
Hand-built galleys
Solid oak worktops, induction hobs, deep sinks. Built to actually cook in.
03
Lived-in interiors
Warm timber floors, leather rock-and-roll beds, considered storage.
04
Every detail
From the fridge latch to the upholstery stitch, chosen, not catalogued.
Bring us your van, or your idea of one, and we'll draw something only you would drive.
Start the conversation03 · How It Works
Four steps, twelve weeks, one good van.
01
Sit down for a coffee
Visit the workshop or jump on a call. We talk about where you want to go, who's coming, and what 'home' looks like for you on the road.
02
Design & quote
We sketch the layout, pick the timbers and finishes, and send you a fixed price quote. No surprises after the fact. Promise.
03
Hand-built in Ireland
Your van moves into the workshop. We'll send you weekly photos and the occasional voice note from the workbench.
04
Handover & first night
We walk you through every switch and stove, hand over the keys, and pour you a stout for the road. Aftercare is for life.
04 · Small Jobs
Not ready for a full build?
We'll still get in the van.
Individual jobs on existing vans, done to the same standard as our full conversions, just on a shorter clock.
01
Diesel heater install
Webasto & Autoterm units, properly ducted, silenced and safely fitted. Toasty vans, quiet nights.
02
12V electrics & solar
Leisure batteries, lithium upgrades, solar arrays, DC-DC chargers, inverters, sized to how you actually use the van.
03
Starlink install
Roof-mounted Starlink Mini or standard, clean cable runs, 12V power. Internet wherever the road takes you.
04
Window installs
Bonded acrylic and glass windows: sliders, bunk windows and rear panels, cut in and sealed for the long haul.
05
Insulation & sound deadening
Thinsulate, sheep's wool and Dodo Mat. Quieter drives, warmer winters, less condensation.
06
Fixes, tweaks & upgrades
Existing van conversion misbehaving? We diagnose, repair and improve, from dodgy electrics to worn joinery.
Something not on the list? Ask. Chances are we've done it.
