About the Bailey Discovery D4-2 Series 1

The Bailey Discovery D4-2 Series 1 is a remarkably nimble and lightweight 2-berth caravan designed for those who value spontaneity and ease of travel. With an MTPLM of just 995kg, it opens up a world of possibilities for owners of smaller tow cars and electric vehicles, eliminating the need for a heavy-duty SUV. Its curved, aerodynamic Alu-Tech bodyshell not only enhances fuel efficiency but also creates a unique aesthetic that stands out on any campsite. Inside, the space is cleverly utilized to provide a sense of openness usually reserved for much larger models, centered around a spacious front lounge that converts into a comfortable double bed.

Despite its compact footprint, the D4-2 does not compromise on modern amenities. The rear corner washroom and side kitchen are equipped with high-quality appliances, including a Thetford Triplex oven and a Dometic refrigerator, ensuring you have everything needed for a comfortable getaway. The inclusion of an extended A-frame also allows for additional storage solutions like bike racks, making it an ideal companion for active couples.
