RV REVIEW
LAYOUT
I am quite partial to the interior of Kokoda ’ s caravans . The layout here doesn ’ t break any moulds ; however , it should work well for couples .
In the nose of the van is a queensize bed . There are overhead lockers and wardrobes either side complete with niches that include 12V and 240V powerpoints .
However , the space under the bed is taken up by the housing of the tunnel boot as well as a separate housing for the 28L gas-electric hot water service .
Kokoda had fitted the bedroom with a couple of optional Sirocco fans . A swivel arm to suit the supplied 24in flatscreen TV is mounted to the offside .
A cafe-style dinette finished in vinyl leather occupies the main nearside wall . Complete with a 240V and 12V point , a tri-fold table and hatch access to the storage space beneath the seats , it is a comfortable spot .
The kitchen is equipped with a four-burner cooktop , griller and oven . While general bench space is in short supply , the hinged section of bench above the stove makes up for it somewhat . The real highlights of the kitchen , though , are the 188L Dometic absorption fridge ( with microwave above ) and the massive pantry . Stretching from the ceiling to the floor , the pantry has two doors , three large shelves and even a pull-out lower section complete with two separate shelves – brilliant .
The bathroom is yet another highlight of the Platoon 2 . It has the usual features , of course , but I loved the huge linen cupboard .
