The Polden

The Polden is...

Our Quantock design is a customer favourite, striking the perfect balance between storage and living space. The RIB seat offers an excellent combination of sleeping and travelling comfort whilst the pop-top roof, equipped with an elevating bed, provides ample room to stand and stretch after a restful night. Deep side cabinets span the length of the van, featuring a full-height wardrobe and smartly designed storage.

The energy efficient top-loading fridge is seamlessly integrated, providing additional worktop space as well as a spacious chamber for chilling food and drinks. The combination two-burner hob and sink, supported by a gas system and underslung water tank and pump, allow you to create culinary delights on the go.

Select from an extensive variety of cabinet colors, surfaces and flooring choices to fully personalize your space.
