Well, good luck with your search. I don't know how many dealers you will find in Somerset. I wasn't too badly off when living in Hampshire, but here in Aberdeenshire, dealers are very thin on the ground. Point is, you may have to travel more than 50 miles to get the right van for you, so don't get too hung up on distance.
Austin makes a very good point about seat belts. Even if there will normally only be two travelling, you may want to carry others on occasions.
I don't know how much experience you have of motorhomes, but if you are totally new to them, you might do well to rent one for a week or so to make sure it's what you want to spend your hard earned dosh on.
Talking of money, if you are thinking of buying new, or a fairly expensive van, remember the road tax is much higher. You will also potentially get ripped off by the warranty conditions that your van gets (often unnecessary) habitation checks.
