We can only have single axle on the storage space.

I have been googling Adria and others and am struggling to find somewhere close so that we can have a look.

We are going to try the Stewart Longton at Lancaster this weekend.



There's a Stewart Longton in Chorley that has Adria vans...we've recently had ours serviced there. We love ours and it's the perfect layout for us...we have double bunks, but just one 10 year old.

Hi

We had a Bailey pursuit 540/5 which has bunks at the rear by the door, then into kitchen and dinner area followed buy lounge seating. This worked really well but we could not shut the kids off fully at night we felt. So we have changed to a Pegasus Ancona and it really fits our family.

You have an end wash room then bunks and dinner area that you can close off so the kids have beds and play area. Then kitchen and door so you can come in and out of awning with out needing to go past kids or simply sleep in the bed made up Lounge to the left in the door and watch tv to and still not going near the kids once asleep.

Each family like different layouts but the Pegasus ancona is spot on for us.

Good luck and happy vanning all !

We have had an Adria 542DT for the six of us. Youngest 9, oldest 16 and tall. When looking at sleeping arrangements remember that a 9 year old and a 13 year old will be a 13 year old and a 17 year old in four years time. Best of luck with your search.

We have been thinking what happens as they both get older, so we are looking at some fixed beds this weekend

Best arrangement I can think of is grandkids with grandparents and you get a spacious two berth for you and any canine companions, toddle off to dog friendly, adult only sites and bob is your mother or father's brother!!
