For this category, our judges are looking for the best, no-expenses spared, highest- specification model that would most appeal to those looking for unsurpassed levels of comfort.

A category in which space – and storage capability – are key factors. Five and six berths were looked at in our quest to find a very special family caravan. And we found one with some innovative features, too.
Coolest Caravan: La Mancelle Liberty 440 PC

We sought out a classic two-berth layout tourer for this award. Among elements that we scrutinised is kitchen size and storage capability, as well as weight. We were looking for a tourer with outstanding features – and we found one…

We assessed single-axle, fixed bed models for this award. In an area of the market where competition is at its most fierce, with so many model from which to choose, it was a tough task to pick one.
