GLOWING INTERIOR
The first thing you ’ d notice is the rear club lounge with overhead bed system . This bed is characteristic of Royal Flair . It lowers electrically from the roof to any height you like over the dinette . The dinette can be converted to a bed , too , so theoretically you could sleep four adults in the rear of this caravan . This area is complete with 12V fans , charging points , reading lights … it ’ s hard not to be impressed .
Amidships , the EcoMate 23 is equipped with a kitchen on the nearside and a bench on the offside . The nearside features gear such as a wireless phone charging point , the controller for the onboard diesel heater , and even a large wardrobe space on top of the many drawers , cupboards and overhead lockers .
The kitchen is fitted with an induction cooktop but Rob and Prue omitted a griller and oven in their build – an understandable move given the battery setup of this van and the fact they ’ ve got a barbecue outside . Filtered drinking water , a pull-out pantry , drawers and cupboards … this kitchen is large and very well-equipped . Meanwhile , on the nearside , there ’ s a 274L compressor fridgefreezer and a microwave recessed into the cabinetry above . A truly beautiful setup .
And then there ’ s the kids ’ room and bathroom in the nose of the van . With two bunks , some storage space , offside ensuite , it ’ s as practical as it attractive .
