THE Bailey Pageant Bretagne’s layout will no doubt prove a huge hit with youngsters as it boasts its own separate children’s bedroom.
This room gets a sliding door and four beds, three of them arranged as triple bunks, and some may well question who would want to sleep on the floor two bunks.
We’re sure it’s the holiday den effect that kids love. Each bed also gets it own reading light and the top two bunks have wooden slats.
And if you’re only taking two children with you, the bottom bunk can be folded upwards creating a large storage space.
It’s big enough to house two small bikes and the area also gets an overhead locker which could be used for toys.
The compartment gets a sliding door and there’s a TV point and socket near the table. If you need a fourth bed then the rear sofa converts to an extra bed, which is just 5ft 7in.
This is a genuine children’s room – the bunks are not suitable for adults, you have to be lithe and flexible to climb past the ladder.
The kitchen area gets a four-burner hob and its 115-litre fridge has a removable icebox that allows for more space if needed.
The power switch means that whatever’s plugged in perches precariously close to the sofa. The glass-topped hob and removable plastic drainer help give you more room when needed.
The seats in the lounge area maker comfortable beds, they’re fully sprung and rest on sprung wooden slats. The cabinet has the conventional arrangement whereby you pull out further slats which allow you to make this area into a double or two singles.
The Pageant has a bright and spacious feel due to the big Heki rooflight in the lounge and mini Hekis in each room. The caravan’s wider body shell helps create this spacious feel too.
We love the subtle colouring of the ‘Hilton’ upholstery on the sofas, especially with the teal colour picked out in little squares. Many of you will know that the last incarnation of Pageant was all golds and oranges and it’s good to see cooler tones.
We recommend you take a look at the optional ‘Savoy’ pack which has a modern floral fabric in similar colours and a luxurious, deeper pile carpet.
The washroom, in quite a small area, gets a swivel loo that gives you adequate knee room but there’s a rather claustrophobic shower curtain keeping water off the loo.
Verdict:
The Bailey Pageant Bretagne offers a family-friendly layout that will get the big thumbs up from the kids. It’s part of Bailey’s best looking range and also gets trailer control as standard, which is a bonus.
