Caravan bed lengths

Have you tried the Caravan Finder web site? They list a vast number of caravans and if they don't have the bed dimensions at least it gives you vans to do further research on.

Our U2 Cadiz has fixed single beds one at 6' 3" the other at 5' 10". So OK if only one is tall, as in our case. I think the lower spec Pegasus Rimini is similar.

I'm sure our 2010 Coachman 2 berth had bunks in excess of 6', Pippah.

Our last van a Lunar SB had 1 bed 6'6" and the other fixed single was 6' 1" the van was 7.4m in length.

This question has been raised on numerous occasions in the past. If you want to know how long manufacturer's bunks are, then Google the manufacturer's web site and obtain the bed lengths for whichever model you are interested in from the specifications. It only takes a few minutes, so it's quicker and more accurate than asking on CT.

I'm sure that publishing your findings on CT will be appreciated by others with similar questions.

Pippah - some of the longest beds around are in Adria caravans and the link takes you to the technical data, of some past models, which  may help you identify layouts and specifications which might suit you.

The Adria Action, for example, has single beds which are 6ft 7in long and the 542 UK (much larger van) has single beds at 6ft 4in and a double crosssways at 7ft 4in.

We have an Adria in this country and the double rear bed is 6ft 9in.  It's a very nicely finished van and so far has been problem free, with no damp issues.  Our only gripe was that the rear bedroom and over the kitchen rooflights were the obscure type, but we've replaced them with Mini-Hekis, one of which was very kindly given to me by a Caravan Club member.

Do you know what layout you're looking for - how many berths, etc., and what weight limit can your towcar take?

Pippah, I have no problem with you asking and, if we still had the Coachman, I'd go out and measure the bunks for you.

I hope you find a van to suit.

Really JC?, if you can't or won't offer help to Pippah why not just swerve the thread instead of taking on the role of Posting Police Not helpful at all.

Thank you for all the helpful replies - and thanks Rocky .  I took advantage of the sunshine today and drove to Bawtry with my tape measure and iPad to record findings!  I was quite surprised at how many beds were only 5'10".  There was one nice Lunar Quasar with a single/bunk across the back which appealed and the bathroom wasn't too cramped - otherwise I think I prefer end bathroom.  I don't need to get too big as a solo + 2 biggish dogs but I do like my bathroom and kitchen space.  A nice Bailey Monarch with one bed at 6'3" might be where I end up - or give mine some TLC!  I am in the mood for a change though.
