Fixed rear bed

[Katie'n'Debbie]

Currently have a 2009 Adria Twin with fixed transverse bed and a small drop down bed but as we get older I'm finding it harder to clamber over my wife to go to the loo in the night etc so looking for a PVC a similar size (6.5m or less) with a fixed non transverse rear bed with access either side or off the end to facilitate bathroom visits plus the possibility of a second single bed made up in the dinette. We would prefer a PVC rather than coach built but if anyone has suggestions to other builds all ideas are welcome. Needs to be secondhand and retailing for no more than £30,000. This is my first question as I have just joined MHF so be gentle with me please

We have a Warwick duo but I think the Warwick duo CL has a dinette bed as well? Oh, welcome by the way!

There are lot of 6.4m PVC Ducatos from many makers that have twin singles at the back.

There's a handful of French bed layouts with a narrow bathroom to the side of the bed across the rear. It does make the bed width a bit narrow though.

Alternatively you go with a forward lounge layout. But then you have to make up the bed each day.

You might also consider "compact" size motorhomes. They tend to be the same height and almost the same width as a PVC, but the coachbuild rear means the doors don't have to be where a panel van dictates, so it frees up the layout options a bit.

Welcome!!!

We will also be changing from a transverse bed to longitudinal beds, possibly next year.

We have an IH PVC that has a U shaped lounge and this easily makes up to 2 length ways singles or a very large transverse bed.

We have a Globecar summit prime, 6.4m with two fixed single beds. There are a couple of proper steps up which have storage space, we use for shoes

Have you thought about swapping places with your wife so she has to climb over you.

She gets up more often than me

Want a permanent bed, previous van was a Romahome and got fed up with bed up bed down everyday. If there is a separate dinette then we don't mind a lounge conversion as this can be left as bed permanently.

Thanks for the welcome, can't find any info on a CL model but no hurry as won't be changing for a while but as the style/price I'm looking for seems hard to find so I'm starting early.
