Description
Elddis Xplore 304 2013
WEIGHING only 893kg, the new Xplore 304 packs beds for four into less than four metres. It’s the shortest and lightest four-berth manufactured in Britain.
Beds for four are achieved with an L-shaped lounge that makes up into a double bed, plus two bunks forming from a dining area tucked away into the offside rear corner.
This diminutive tourer is a masterpiece of ingenious design which gives you a shower-toilet room that’s amazingly spacious considering the size of the caravan.
The shower-toilet room is larger than you might expect for a caravan of this size. The shower area is square, and bordered by a simple curtain.
There’s a cabinet on the wall and the toilet is the swivel type, rather than bench design often seen in small caravans.
And there’s a splendidly simple practicality in this little room: In common with the whole Xplore range, there is a rail running across the ceiling – ideal for hanging towels or garments to dry. Xplores may be Elddis’s budget range but this feature helps to give the impression that the designers have taken care with details that count.
Our verdict:
This unique four-berth configuration is utterly brilliant in its achievement of a holiday home for four in only 3.7 metres of body length and 893kg of unladen weight.
Even if you load this caravan to its maximum (which, with four aboard, you probably will), you’re only towing 1050kg, which puts this caravan comfortably into the Astra/Golf class.
