Hi all .. Do anyone know of large vans with a seperate bedroom and slide outs?
we are wanting to upgrade and have been considering five wheelers but before going down that road further I want to really investigate if another caravan will fulfill our requirements ... That being a bedroom that can be closed off from the living area and a large lounge area with plenty of bench space in the kitchen.
i saw a very good plan in Cell Caravans but the Aust importer has since closed doors I believe, so, in summary we want a 25 - 30 ft van with separated bedroom, plenty of slide outs, large living areas and bench space ...
We intend to live full time in it for at least five years or so. ...... Can anyone point us in the right direction? Cheers
our 23' Roma Elegance has that layout - toilet and basin and separate shower in middle of the van is great for permanent living and I believe they now do it with a slide out. There's a nice one for sale on 'caravan sales' - no slide out but the pics show how long the bench space is

Our van is that way, bedroom and ensuite, sliding door and kitchen lounge with recliner chairs. Jayco 24 ft. Comes with recliners as an option to the club lounge.
We are in Kununarra at present and yesterday we had a look at a 26ft fifth wheeler and the way the bedroom could be closed off from the rest of the van was really good ... The toilet door simply swung out and caught on a catch that closed off the entire area .... So good if one of us was restless and couldn't sleep and were in the living area, and the other in the bedroom.
I will continue to look around ... Our 25ft Jayco Silverline is terrific in every way excepting this one requirement ... I think that the wet areas (toilet, bathroom) definitely need to be between the bedroom and the living area in order to close it off properly ... Ours can be visually closed off with a curtain but that doesn't cut it really ...
Trulux 5th wheelers in Melbourne has what you want, but they may have gone out of business. We were looking at some of their designs with a view to buy.
Our Traveller Prodigy has this layout of rear entry, wrap around rear lounge, mid kitchen, door closes off bedroom and shower on one side and toilet / bathroom other. All fits in well within 23'6"

Fred ..
Just had a look at the Caravan World on line review. An impressive van & great layout. I really like the Club lounges. You must be pleased with your purchase.
it is more efficient and comfortably and legally pulls the van
Touareg is one of the quiet achievers
a real 3,500 kg towing plus a load in the rear and with self levelling suspension means no WDH and it does not need it as the electronics takes care of it all
cruise at a true 94km/ hr all day and still get better than 13.5 litres/ 100 km
van is ATM 3380kg with a 550kg payload

Just been to camping/caravan show in Adelaide - heaps of interiors would meet your requirements. Google manufacturers and look at floor plans is easiest.

Are you looking for a tug with separate cabins while travelling too?
Hi Keith,
Are we missing something, You may need to explain yourselves, in some States rest area's, to Constable Plod. What is the difference between resting and
Ohhhh how love is still, where the road takes you in later life. Or could it just be the bumps in the road, or that rock and rolli'n.
Have you checked your jocks lately. (I mean your Shocks.)
