Our Annie is a lovely retro 1986 Alpha Caravan, 4 Berth - two singles and a pull-out double ('Caravan' sized double, which are more like a King Single). A full awning and a porch awning are available. We love our Annie and enjoy our camping holidays with her. The mattresses are comfortable and we feel very snuggly in her. She is worn but clean and cozy. If you want more room, the adults can easily sleep in the awning which is a good size. Pioneer CD stereo system makes for nice tunes on your holiday. The very old 3-way gas fridge works plugged into power, although we don't use the gas. The gas stove works fine although we will provide a portable gas stove or two for outdoor cooking on request (we don't provide a gas bottle). Due to Annie being of a respectable age, we will not take hires where the towing is to multiple destinations. She is best suited to be towed/delivered to a site where you are enjoying the entirety of your holiday. If you would like delivery, we will deliver and pick up on Saturdays or Sundays (or other pre-agreed days during school holidays) with minimum hire period of seven days and within 50km from our home. For locals (10-20 minutes from us) we are open to deliver outside of these times and days for you (minimum hire 4 days).

Additional information

I will provide instructions on how to attach the tow bar, how to operate the battery charger, the fridge and the electric components. I will also provide instructions on how to put up the awnings, which are very easy to manage. The manual pump is not pumping water and we don't use it so haven't fixed it as yet. We use a water container by the sink which we can provide for you to do the same. Please note - we have a cat and a dog at our home. They are not allowed in the caravan, but if you are very allergic it is important to note that it is possible pet hair could be accidentally present off our own clothing. The back right stabiliser needs mending and so does the outside lockable cupboard. We will update when these have been fixed, but currently we are using wood blocks to stabilise the back. If we deliver we will do this for you.

    Annie was great to holiday in again. Shes small but exactly what we needed to keep dry in the northland summer. Comfortable and had everything we needed. Fridge and plates/ cutlery make for a stress free stay. Thanks so much again

    We only used the caravan as an extra bedroom. The only facilities we used were the beds and we didn't tow it anywhere. Met our needs.

My husband and I live in rural Whangarei with the two kids, our cat and dog and some chooks. We love camping in the summer months by the beach, and warming by the fire in the winter months. Time with friends and family is really important to us as well as pottering around home and enjoying family time. Annie was bought with a legacy my bestie left me when she passed away. I wanted to put the money into something that we could have fun happy times in, which is what she would have wanted. Annie is our first caravan - we have gone from the canvas tent to the pop up, and now Annie. We have owned her since 2022.
