Bailey motorhomes shine in the new Caravan & Motorhome Club Motorhome and Campervan Design Awards Buyers Guide 2021

The Autograph 69-2 was awarded five-stars in the “Two-Berth Coachbuilt motorhomes”, category, while the Autograph 81-6 received 4.5 stars for “Up to Six-Berth Coachbuilt motorhomes” section. In both cases these models were top of their class in terms of the star ratings received. The all-new Adamo 75-4DL was also awarded four-stars in the “Up to Four-Berth Coachbuilt motorhomes” category.

In order to complete this guide an independent and knowledgeable panel carried out full specification, design and usability reviews of over 100 new motorhomes and campervans. Working with these experts The Caravan and Motorhome Club has subsequently compiled this guide to help prospective buyers with the information they will need when making their next motorhome or campervan purchase.

A digital version of the guide can be viewed on The Caravan and Motorhome Club website.

Nick Lomas, Director General of the Caravan and Motorhome Club said, “The Motorhome and Campervan Design Awards Buyers Guide is the must-read guide for people looking to purchase a new motorhome or campervan. The expert panel have spent thousands of hours going through an immense amount of data to create an in-depth guide that will provide buyers with the information they need to make an informed decision when choosing a new leisure vehicle”.
