With over thirty years of experience in manufacturing cotton top Folding Campers, Pennine Leisure were widely recognised as the Premier manufacturer of this type of Leisure Vehicle.
In 2008, the very first of a completely new breed of Leisure Vehicle, namely Convertible Caravans incorporating synthetic acrylic fabrics were designed and launched under the Conway brand name, in association with Isabella Ltd. Initially two models; Cruiser and Crusader were introduced alongside the more traditional range of Folding Campers.
In 2010 the Conway Countryman was added to the Convertible Caravan range, under the now familiar “Isacryl” acrylic fabric sourced from Isabella Ltd. This unit took the Convertible Caravan concept into a whole new dimension, with a completely new, stylish and practical interior layout which incorporated a modern fixed kitchen arrangement, complemented with many specification enhancements fitted to improve the whole customer experience.
This model proved to be hugely successful and received many awards from the related caravan press magazines, including Camping and Practical Caravan magazines.
With over one hundred units sold in its inaugural year, the new Countryman Platinum model became testament to the success of the Convertible Caravan concept. Following this success, the company took the decision to launch a whole new range of Convertible Caravans under the Pennine brand incorporating the very latest acrylic fabric technology, namely “Isatex” which as well as offering the same lengthy list of advantages during usage, provides a wipe-clean fabric finish.
