We’re renovating a caravan! Introducing Club Jupiter!

It’s official! The cat is out of the bag – we’re renovating a caravan! Club Jupiter is here, and we couldn’t be more excited to share this journey with you. Haven’t heard what Club Jupiter is yet? Find out below!

Who is behind Club Jupiter?

Club Jupiter is a caravan renovation project by three women based in Margate, Kent. You’ve got interior designer Whinnie Williams, interior stylist and writer, Emma Jane Palin, and travel journalist Anna Hart. That’s our dream team! You can learn more about us on our About page.

How did you come up with the idea for Club Jupiter?

During the global pandemic in 2020, we started to meet for socially distanced business meetings. We had all pivoted drastically within our respective careers and felt as if we needed to concentrate on new things, while also celebrating the things we had achieved in such a period of unknown. Around two weeks into said business meetings, Whinnie and Emma came up with the idea to renovate a caravan. They messaged Anna (literally) and the seed for Club Jupiter was planted. Club Jupiter came about over WhatsApp! Can you believe it?

What are your plans for Club Jupiter?

Renovating a caravan takes a little bit of time so, at the moment, we’re busy working away in the background getting the caravan in tip top shape. However, once the caravan is completely renovated, Club Jupiter will be open for bookings. This could be for short-term stays or location shoot bookings. We’re super excited to open our very small caravan door to potential guests.

What is Club Jupiter going to look like?

The three of us are all inspired by vintage design and eras gone by, so you can expect to see plenty of retro references in Club Jupiter. A themed caravan is our absolute dream and we are not taking the design lightly. Think disco ball walls, Palm Springs moments and lots of opportunity for a selfie.

What’s it like renovating a caravan?

Cold! We’ve been renovating Club Jupiter over the winter, so yes, it’s been a little bit cold. Overall, renovating a caravan is different to what you might do in a house, everything is a little bit backwards. We’re working with a lovely builder who knows caravan design well.  We’re hoping to reuse and repurpose as much as possible to avoid wastage.

Which caravan site is Club Jupiter located on?

We’re keeping this one a secret until renovation has finished, but keep your eyes peeled on social media for more information.

When will Club Jupiter be open for business?

We’re hoping that the caravan will be ready to go in late Spring 2021 for UK travel. Sign up to our newsletter for more information.
