A good friend of mine has done just that.
He has fitted a standard mains powered towel rail to the rear end shower room wall of their 2009 luner lexon caravan.
He is competent with electrics and it looks like standard factory fitment and works well.

I fitted one on the end of the seating area by the doorway. It is very good and low wattage so can be left on when van is in use. Ours is a very lightweight caravan one. Cost about £25.

There is a good account of fitting one here I was going to follow suit but that particular 230v towel rail was out of stock and by the time it was back in we had changed to a motorhome.

I use a free standing one like this. and would recommend one that is portable so it can be used anywhere of your choice. just keep it away from any running water.
