Basecamp
Exciting, sporty, fun and stylish… Basecamp is the crossover camping vehicle, created for life’s adventurers.
Whether you’re seeking adrenaline-fuelled activities or just enjoy getting off the beaten track, Basecamp is the perfect place to rest and refuel. Compact and lighter in weight than traditional caravans, the range is easy to tow by most family cars and is easier to manoeuvre once on site.
Available in 2, 3 and 4 berth models, Swift Basecamp is the ultimate small caravan for couples and families. And with the optional RVA-2 awning from Vango (sold seperately), the extra living space turns this lightweight and compact caravan into a real home from home, for people who like their camping holidays with a slice of comfort!
