Bruich Biadh - Kitchen Pod with seat and large drawer

The Ply Guys compact kitchen pod was originally designed for micro campers, but they liked it so much they made a version for medium vans too. Whether you’ve got a Caddy Maxi, Transit Custom, or Transporter T6, you can now add a sleek, slide-out kitchen and storage solution that doesn’t take up your whole van. The Bruich Biadh is built to maximise space and function without sacrificing comfort. With dual-height sections, integrated storage, and a smooth 1.4m side drawer, it brings smart cooking to small spaces. Whether you're making breakfast in the rain or cracking a cold one post surf—this pod's got you covered. Please note: Images may include optional bed systems or accessories like the Torridon or Schiehallion. These are sold separately. Version The Bruich Biadh is available in two size configurations, depending on your van: Small Van Version – Designed to fit VW Caddy, Caddy Maxi, and similar micro campers Medium Van Version – Sized for T5/T6, Transit Custom, and other mid-size panel vans Both versions offer the same smart layout—just scaled to match your space. Style We offer three style options to suit your setup, storage needs, and how you like to cook: Low Level A single-height bench unit with no raised kitchen section—great for minimal layouts or those needing more seating. One-height surface Extra seat space Still includes full-length drawer and top access Kitchen Our most popular setup. Includes a raised kitchen worktop with internal storage below. Elevated cooking surface Space below for mugs, plates, dry goods Lower rear section fits a cool box and doubles as a seat Hightop Van Fixed Fridge (LWB vans only) Same as the Kitchen style but with a cut-out aperture to install a CRX50 or Transporter HQ-style fridge. Front-facing fridge access Raised kitchen layout with integrated fridge housing Please note: This option is only suitable for LWB vans if used alongside a (Max 1800) bed system—the fridge door won’t open properly in an SWB due to space limits Drawer Box Options The Bruich Biadh features a 1.4m side slide-out drawer, mounted on heavy-duty 230kg runners.
