About the Xplore Elddis Xplore 526

The Elddis Xplore 526 is a masterclass in space-efficient family touring, specifically designed to cater to larger groups without the need for a heavy twin-axle tow vehicle.

Its lightweight 'Solid' construction ensures it remains one of the most accessible family caravans on the market for a wide range of tow cars.

Inside, the 526 balances practicality with modern aesthetics, featuring a surprisingly spacious washroom and a well-equipped kitchen. The rapid-heat Whale water heater and Grade 3 thermal insulation keep the cabin comfortable in all UK seasons, while the panoramic windows ensure the living area feels bright and airy. It is the ideal entry-level caravan for families who refuse to compromise on fixed bedding and floor space.
