Available payload

The Sterling Eccles Moonstone has approximately 300kg of user payload. This must cover all personal belongings, water, gas, awning, and accessories. Overloading affects handling and is illegal.

Before you buy

Request a habitation check or damp survey for any used caravan. Check the service history, tyre age, chassis condition, and whether the CRIS registration matches the seller. Specifications vary by year and trim level.

External dimensions of 6.8m length and 2.29m width.
Diverse layouts including End Washroom, Side Dinette, and Fixed Bed configurations.

Buying a Sterling Eccles Moonstone

Who it suits

• Couples seeking a spacious 2-berth retreat with a dedicated end washroom.
• Families requiring up to 6 berths and a practical 300kg payload for equipment.
• Tourers who prefer a traditional interior aesthetic with warm wood finishes.

Reasons to consider it

• Proven reliability and robust construction within the Sterling lineup.
• Strong resale value supported by its long-standing popularity in the UK market.
• Versatile layout options that accommodate different sleeping preferences, including fixed beds.

What to check

• Verify the specific heating system installed, as Truma units vary by model year.
• Confirm the exact layout, as the Moonstone name covers everything from twin singles to side dinettes.
• Check the condition of the Al-Ko chassis and associated towing components.
• Inspect the interior upholstery and wood finishes for wear, typical of high-use family models.

Worth knowing: Larger layouts may require a more powerful tow vehicle to manage the 1550kg MTPLM safely. Availability of specific modern amenities like Truma heating is model-year dependent.

Compare the Sterling Eccles Moonstone with similar models

Model	Berths	MTPLM	Length	Typical price
Sterling Eccles Moonstone	6	1550 kg	6.80 m	£8,000 to £25,000
Sterling Elite	6	1600 kg	6.80 m	£18,000 to £38,000
Swift Fairway	6	1550 kg	7.32 m	£9,500 to £28,500

The Sterling Eccles Moonstone occupies a competitive position in the mid-range caravan market. While it shares its 6.8m length and price bracket with the Swift Corniche, it offers a higher MTPLM, suggesting a different balance of equipment and build weight. Compared to the Swift Fairway, it is more compact, making it easier to store while offering the same maximum berth capacity. It remains a consistent choice for those prioritising a mix of traditional design and layout flexibility.

Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.

Sterling Eccles Moonstone Ownership Tips

Utilise the 300kg payload carefully by distributing heavier items over the axle on the Al-Ko chassis.
Measure storage pitches to ensure they can accommodate the 6.8m shipping length and 2.29m width.
Regularly service the integrated washroom and shower components to maintain the 'home-from-home' functionality.

Common mistakes to avoid

• Exceeding the 300kg payload when fully loaded for a 6-person trip.
• Assuming all Moonstone models have identical heating specifications without checking the year.

Worth knowing: Ensure your tow vehicle is rated for at least 1550kg to accommodate the maximum technical permissible laden mass.
