Top Ten Caravan Guide Part 1

Our top 10 caravans for 2021 Part one

The Caravan and Motorhome Club’s CaravanDesign Awards are an annual competition for caravans, where manufacturers are invited to submit their tourers for evaluation. This year, they’ve evaluated the new caravans on the market and scored them out of five stars. Here are the top-rated caravans in their class - from best small caravan to the highest-rated six-berth model. Next month we’ll give you the lowdown on the top family-sized caravans.

1 Best Small Caravan

(750kg - 1150kg MTPLM) Bailey Phoenix+ 420 £18,999

This might be the two-berth baby of the sevenmodel Phoenix caravan range, but it doesn’t mean it can’t pack a punch – especially if you’re after a smaller two-berth tourer with a generous washroom. It’s very keenly priced, too, as we’ve come to expect from any Bailey caravan.

2 Best Pop Top Caravan (over 1150kg) Eriba Touring Triton 430 £15,999

With its low profile when the pop-up roof is down and compact size, the Touring 60th Edition 542 is easy to tow. The ERIBA Touring 60 Edition is as distinctive and modern inside as you would expect from this icon of caravanning style. The anniversary model of the ERIBA Touring “ 60 Edition” also features distinctive, two-colour paintwork, which is the absolute highlight of this special model.

3 Best Two-Berth Caravan Coachman VIP 460 £26,705

Designed to provide the ultimate in luxury caravanning, the Coachman VIP 460 is the ideal motorhome for couples looking for fivestar accommodation on the move. It’s spacious too, with headroom to 6’5” and plenty of clever storage solutions to keep clothes, kitchen equipment and other essentials out of the way.

4 Best Caravan up to Four-Berth Adria Alpina Colorado £31,775

Alpina has always been a modern-looking tourer. The latest, streamlined look sports three large windows across the front that, at first glance, look like a single piece. Flush-fitting side windows keep up that wind-cheating appeal and there’s also an opening sunroof that follows the curve of the roofline. With the silver/grey finish to the GRP bodywork, you’re getting a very modern exterior look. 5 Best Caravan up to Six-Berth Buccaneer Aruba £35,894

The Buccaneer Aruba boasts all of the range’s opulent specification, creating a 6-berth family caravan par excellence! This clever layout has a large lounge, converting to a supersize double upfront, a wraparound dinette amidships - creating a further double - plus a fixed French-style double bed at the rear. The bright and airy lounge comfortably seats the whole family for dinner or just chilling.

May Horoscopes

Aries (March 21 - April 19)

You’ll have fun engaging in light repartee. Maybe you will make some colorful comments and your friends might lose themselves in laughter as you entertain them. You might even take on a comic character, complete with silly voice and exaggerated movements! Taurus (April 20 - May 20)

When it comes to relationships with others, be careful about insisting that everything be done your way and your way only. It could be that you have such high expectations of your partner that they will never be able to live up to your standards. Gemini (May 21 - June 20)

It may seem like parts of your life are changing beyond your control. More than likely, this is quite a scary thing for you since you may feel a loss of security and comfort when things suddenly slip away from your grasp. Try not to be so neurotic with important issues in your life. Cancer (June 21 - July 22)

Responsibilities at home may be weighing on your mind today, and might interfere with other obligations. This might cause some inner conflict, but you have a personal life and it’s important to take care of these responsibilities as well. Leo (July 23 - August 22)

Sometimes it’s important to know which battles to fight and which conflicts to avoid. You could find yourself in a personal situation that is stirring up a lot of intense emotions for you. Before you overreact and express anger or fear, try to find a better way of handling this. Virgo (August 23 - September 22)

You will be dealing with a lot of money-related issues during this period and your horoscope predictions suggest that any financial speculations you make will be fruitful, though you will not indulge in impulsive spending; rather, you will be taking a more measured and careful approach. Libra (September 23 - October 22)

You might have visions of grandeur regarding how you can save the world. This is extremely noble of you, but make sure that whatever you do is done one step at a time. Realise that before you save the world, you need to save yourself. Scorpio (October 23 - November 21)

You might hear from an old friend. If you haven’t spoken to an old school friend for a long time, you could be surprised when they call you up. Or if you haven’t spoken to your old school girlfriend/ boyfriend for a while, she might contact you out of the blue. Sagittarius (November 22 - December 21)

Confusion about metaphysical or spiritual matters could have you looking for clarification through research. Conversations with friends could prove beneficial, though it’s important to remember that they can be as perplexed as you are! Capricorn (December 22 - January 19)

Sometimes you can be a little stuffy about sticking to traditions. You like relationships to proceed in a proper way, but sometimes it’s best to break with tradition. You could be in a personal situation that requires a more creative touch. Aquarius (January 20 - February 18)

Vague and uncertain physical discomfort could have you feeling a bit out of sorts. Most likely you are not really ill; you’re tired and stressed out, but you can make it through the day. Disillusionment with someone whom you have admired could also be very much on your mind.. Pisces (February 19 - March 20)

It is one thing to be a friend, and it is another to feed someone’s ego just to make them happy. Make sure that you aren’t telling someone a pack of lies just because you know that that is what he or she wants to hear.
