Does anyone have a small box that they also use as a family camper?
we are looking to do this, all the smaller high spec boxes have a ‘changing area’ but we would like a bed and seating area and to be very comfortable!
it only needs to carry one possibly 2 ponies, I don’t mind it being over 3.5t but want a small ladies box! Is this impossible? Any recommendations of where to start?
 
I can’t see it being possible in a small box. We pitched up next to a lovely looking Bloomfield 4.5t when we camped over for Burghley last year, the owners were using it as accommodation for the duration, but that involved erecting camp beds in the horse area. Ok for occasional use, maybe, but not comparable to a motorhome (which we have).

The bigger boxes, the ones with a bigger living, yes, it can be done.
 
I have a 6-5 ton with a slide out it has a shower and loo , fridge and cooker .
we use it sometimes as mobile home .
we clean out the horse area the dogs live in there and we have tables and hanging shelf’s etc to set it all up so the food and everything is all set up .
The last time we where away I slept in the horse area with the dogs as the snoring was more than I could bear .
we use the tack locker for storage .
 
I have seen one or two marketed at the motorcycle racing community which seemed to have really swanky living accomodation and smaller size/capacity than is normal for the horse area to carry motorbike etc. Have seen them marketed at the "in-build" stage as suitable either motorbike/ponies/small horse much as you describe, then to be adapted in the final build as whether they build ramp etc and horse area or slightly different configuration and access arrangement for motorbike stuff. Have seen this on facebook, can't remember makes but you could do a search for vehicles for that purpose and see what comes up?
