The Cornwall Camper Company, founded by Start Up Loan recipient Jess Ratty, is a VW Camper van hire business aimed at being part of a new wave of tourism in the South West.

Designed to attract high-end customers from across the UK and abroad, Jess’s company provides beautifully restored vans with all-inclusive packages including activity weeks filled with adventures such as surfing, coasteering, golfing, biking and horse-riding as well as “camper hampers” filled to the brim with goods from across the Duchy.

Jess worked hard on finding a brand identity for her business and since launching has gone from strength to strength. She now has four vans, decorated in different colours and with different features, ensuring there is a van for every taste. As well as the vans, customers can enjoy a range of food hampers, with breakfast, afternoon tea, special occasions options and more to choose from.

Making sure she can cater to as many people as possible, Jess even allows pets to join their owners on their Cornwall holidays, providing cosy covers and blankets to make dogs as comfortable as the people.
