Meanwhile , the kitchen comes with a cooktop , griller and oven , along with a pull-out under-bench pantry , classy black sink and tapware . Bench space in this model is a little limited , given the compact nature of this caravan ; however , the cooker is recessed into the bench , with a hinged section of benchtop above . Further , the floor entry / exit points of the grey water and gas lines aren ’ t gapped with giant gobs of silicone ( a pet hate of mine ). Instead , they ’ re very neatly finished off – this is the kind of finish you ’ d expect when paying tens of thousands of dollars for a caravan .
With two ceiling-mounted Sirocco fans and bedside niches , a couple of overhead lockers and wardrobe space with niches , the bedroom comes together nicely . Majestic even included a switch in the middle of the upholstered bedhead to allow either partner in the bed to turn on the bathroom light . The niches are fitted with 240V powerpoints ; however , the USB charging points are limited to the integrated points in the multidirectional reading lights . Personally , I ’ d prefer them in the niches instead so that you could more easily leave your device to charge overnight .
The full-width rear bathroom is a little on the squeezy side . That ’ s a consequence of the overall size of this 18ft 6in van , which is perhaps why the 19ft 6in model is more popular among customers .
