Timberland is a respected British boutique motorhome manufacturer based in Lincolnshire, known for producing compact, beautifully crafted motorhomes that punch well above their weight. Low production volumes and high build quality create strong demand on the used market.
The range includes:
The Freedom — Timberland's signature model. A compact panel van conversion on Fiat Ducato that combines clever space utilisation with quality materials and construction. Available in various layouts with features including rear washroom, fixed bed options and well-equipped kitchens.
The Endeavour — a larger offering providing more living space while maintaining Timberland's characteristic attention to detail and build quality.
Both models are handcrafted in the Lincolnshire workshop with a level of finish that rivals premium European manufacturers at a fraction of the size.
Timberland Motorhomes was founded in 1992 in Lincolnshire, established by enthusiasts who believed they could build a better compact motorhome. The company has remained independent and family-run throughout its history.
Timberland built its reputation on the Freedom model — a compact, high-quality motorhome based on the Fiat Ducato that became highly sought after on the used market. The Freedom's combination of clever design, quality materials and compact dimensions made it a favourite for couples who wanted a well-built British motorhome without the bulk of larger models.
The company also produces the Endeavour, a larger panel van conversion offering more space while maintaining Timberland's characteristic build quality.
Production volumes have always been deliberately small, with each motorhome receiving individual attention. This artisan approach contributes to the strong residual values Timberland motorhomes enjoy on the used market.
Exceptional build quality — Timberland's handcrafted construction and quality materials consistently draw praise from owners and reviewers. The fit and finish rivals much more expensive motorhomes.
Strong residual values — low production volumes and high demand mean Timberland motorhomes hold their value remarkably well. Used examples are highly sought after.
Compact yet fully featured — the Freedom model proves that a well-designed compact motorhome can include everything needed for comfortable touring without excess bulk.
British independent craftsmanship — family-run, independent and proudly British, Timberland represents the best of small-scale British motorhome manufacturing.
If you want the best compact motorhome — the Freedom model's combination of build quality, design and compact dimensions is hard to beat.
If resale value matters — Timberland motorhomes consistently hold their value better than mass-produced alternatives.
If you appreciate handcrafted quality — every Timberland receives individual attention that mass-production cannot replicate.
If you want to support British manufacturing — independent, family-run and built in Lincolnshire.
Limited availability — low production volumes mean new Timberlands often have waiting lists, and used examples sell quickly.
Premium pricing for size — the quality commands a price premium that may surprise buyers comparing on size alone.
Compact dimensions — if you need a large motorhome with multiple berths, Timberland's range is focused on couples.
Small dealer network — servicing is primarily through the factory or knowledgeable independents.
Act quickly — used Timberlands sell fast. Be prepared to move quickly when one appears on the market.
Check the Fiat Ducato base — cam belt, clutch, gearbox as per any Fiat-based motorhome.
Inspect the build quality — Timberland's high standards mean any departure from excellent condition may indicate a problem.
Conduct damp check — despite quality construction, always verify with a calibrated meter.
Verify provenance — confirm the motorhome is a genuine Timberland conversion with appropriate documentation.
Timberland provides a manufacturer warranty on new motorhomes with excellent factory backup. The company's relationship with its customers is characteristically personal and supportive.
For used purchases, verify any remaining warranty and the vehicle's service history with the factory.
OakTree Motorhomes offer up to three years of RAC-backed warranty, complementing any remaining manufacturer coverage.
When buying a used Timberland, look for a dealer that offers an independent warranty backed by a provider like the RAC. This means your warranty remains valid even if the dealer ceases trading. OakTree Motorhomes offer up to three years of RAC-backed warranty, covering the average ownership period.
