They have a caravan we are very interested in.

As we are in Belfast we were hoping to get any local feedback, knowledge or reviews before thinking about going over to see them.

Any help appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

They are a small family-run business.I have dealt with them for accesories a few times.Very friendly and the vans are all well presented.A good little shop and I think they will put you up on a local site for a night or two to try your van out.Lots of thankyou letters from satisfied customers pinned to the notice board.

I sent our Brcelona back, that many faults it should never have been up for sale, in that condition.
Gave me full refund and to be honest they was good about it.
As i stated at the time on here, i think they got the wool pulled over there eyes as well as me.

Bryan is also correct in his statement about the company.

Thanks gents, spoke to them over last two days and have agreed on a refundable deposit to hold till we can get to see van with a transferrable warranty to a local caravan fitter on agreement of written quote.

In place of any discount we are having a full 2nd hand/basic starter pack and 120W Solar panels supplied (not fitted so we can still walk away but a £150 allowance to have fitted once we get home)

Its a one owner from new, fully dealer serviced with back up docs.
Its got a motor mover with auto engage rather then the manual on our current van.

A few questions on very small specifics to sort and we may have a deal.

There is a thought. Got more photos and remaining questions answered so deposit is now paid and deal is done. We collect on Easter Saturday (soonest I can get away from work and kids) In total its near 12hrs on the 2 ferry journeys and about same driving so we will be a little tired when we get home in the middle of Easter Sunday morning.....

put our Adria Altea 542DK up on gumtree and had a call as I was still uploading more photos, they were here within the hr and paid in full 2 hrs later......They are calling on Wed for a full walk through on set up and down then they are off home to get ready for their first weekend away.

So now we have no caravan till we collect the new one (2 weeks)

collected the van yesterday (Easter Saturday) and left their yard about 11 am. Was able to change ferry to earlier one and were home by 22:30. Knackered but happy.

Just need to get out to use it now!!

used caravan twice and the voltage meter has stopped working. Emailed dealer and asked for a cheap digital of ebay. It arrived a few days later and I have now fitted it.

Have to say the Adria Adora is just stunning. we love it. Used it 3 times now and 2 more weekends booked for end of this month.
