But with the coronavirus pandemic putting the festival season on hold and restrictions surrounding international travel, Peter and Abbey will have to find a new local destination for their prized VW.

A source told The Sun that their new vehicle ‘exceeds expectation’, they added: ‘The VW is an absolute beauty — it’s a really lovely restored one. 

‘They can be quite cramped inside but this has a big bed in it and there’s loads of headroom when the roof canopy is up.

‘They both love classic vehicles and the VW is a real head-turner – though luckily for Crouchy, not a head-basher!’

MailOnline has contacted Peter’s representative for comment.  

A change of scenery will be a breath of fresh air for Abbey who claims that drinking at home during lockdown has aged her 10 years.
