We are fairly new to this carravanning thing and only had an old caravan (1994 model) for a short time. We are looking to get something newer and quite fancy one of these with the single bunks at one side. Has any one got/had one of these and are they any good?

We looked one of these last year whilst shopping for our first van. Liked the idea of fixed bunks etc and it had a decent size washroom.

What put us off was that it felt a bit claustrophobic when we eventually found one to go and sit in. The only 'space' to stretch out was in the lounge which I thought was a bit small. May well be a great van in other respects?

Went for a twin dinette layout van in the end which we find is a bit more versatile for our family needs.

We looked a a ton of stuff at dealers before deciding which was half the fun.

Thanks for that, we are going to look at one this weekend so we will bear this in mind.
