ABOUT CRIDDLE OVERLAND

Shaped by real journeys

Criddle Overland grew from travelling with Land Rovers across the United Kingdom and Europe. Long motorway days, mountain passes, sudden weather and small campsites quickly reveal what works—and what simply takes up space.

That experience informs every product we select and every vehicle layout we plan: dependable, straightforward equipment that earns its place.

PROVEN BY THE ROAD

From Britain to the Alps and beyond

Our point of view comes from using the equipment. European touring means long distances, steep passes, narrow roads and changing conditions—exactly the environment in which simple, dependable systems matter.

COMMON QUESTIONS

Before you set off

Will a roof tent fit my vehicle?

Compatibility depends on the vehicle, roof-load limits and mounting system. Tell us what you drive and we will help you check the complete setup before purchase.

Can you fit the equipment for me?

Talk to us about your vehicle and location. We can advise on fitting, compatible racks and how the tent or awning should integrate with the rest of the build.

Do I need a full vehicle build?

No. Many customers start with one well-chosen product and develop the vehicle over time. We can help you avoid choices that limit later upgrades.

Do you work with vehicles other than Defenders?

Yes. Defenders are a particular specialism, but our equipment and planning approach can suit many capable 4×4s, pickups and touring vehicles.
