Abbey GTS 215

This caravan is ideal for a couple or a single person. There is loads of space with all the mod cons you could wish for. A small microwave oven may also benefit. Towing feels easy, steady and practical and not too heavy and seems very sturdy. We don't need a motor mover on site as we could manouver manually with two people on fairly flat ground. My choice would be a front drawer unit rather than wraparound seating. As the outer colour has green motiffs and streamline I prefer the green interior to match. All mains and 12v switches are easily accessible and there is also a drinks cabinet - very important for me and spouse. Lots of storage and loads of room for changing after a shower in the end washroom. The wardrobe shelves can be accessed from either side of the hand basin or wardrobe door. The shower cubicle can more than ample even for someone my size 6ft and 15 stone. The front drawer unit also has a slide out table top surface in addition to a separate dining table which can be stowed away by the cooker. Very useful extra is the electric hot plate and 3 gas burner hob, grill and oven large enough for those all important roasts. A good extractor fan blower is located in the ceiling vent above the cooker area. A very practical and roomy van for two with loads of equipment. Very happy.

I am sure it is a really pleasant van, if I can ever get it working properly, lost almost every opportunity to do weekend trips since purchase, have had to use van with faults for two other weeks away - not very good at all.

- I have had this layout on a van previously but this one seems to tow well and is very stable

- The bed makes up quiet easily and does not have the fitted shaped corner cushions that you don't know what to do with.

- I would have liked an electric point in the bathroom area for a tooth brush or a shaver.

- If they changed the sink to a sink/drainer that would make all the difference.

- The van warms up quickly and keeps warm even in the coldest weather.

- We have had this caravan for 18 months and towed it more than 4000 miles and it is a pleasure to tow.

- I have had similar size and layouts previously but for some reason this tows better.

- I would liked to have seen an electric point in the bathroom area for plugging in toothbrush or shaver.

- A better al-in-one sink draining board layout could have been provided

The caravan is easy to clean.
