Floorplan

Layout: Island Bed

An island bed layout in a motorhome features a central bed that stands alone, typically situated in the rear of the vehicle. This design allows for easy access from both sides of the bed, making it convenient for occupants to get in and out without having to climb over one another. The island bed is usually surrounded by cabinetry or storage solutions, which can include wardrobes and shelves, maximising space efficiency. In many models, the layout also allows for additional features such as bedside tables or reading lights, enhancing comfort and functionality.
