The simplest answer is one of the Goburs.

http://www.goburcaravans.co.uk/

They are very well built and extremely durable with support as good as it comes.
However as these are not a low quality, mass produced product they are initially expensive. This together with their durability and desirability make them hold their value like no other caravan, so they are never cheap.

Had an early one for many years.

I agree with comments in reply to my question. I have looked at Gobur and they are high quality but very expensive even prowned. I have now decided I will get more caravan for my money with a small traditional caravan but am now having troble getting one small enough with having a campervan and a car already on my drive. I notice on caravan classified ads that very few people show the length and most 2 berths are too long. I need anout 12ft and cant find one. Interesting how many people put 2 birth

dick,
You will definitely get more van for your money than going for a Gobur. However the actual cost of ownership if you consider residual value is likely to more than offset this. It did in my case.

For small high quality vans look at Eriba; again they are expensive and again they hold value. By going either route you should not lose that much money relative to the cheaper popular offerings.
Both Gobur and Eriba have very very enthusiastic followers with good reason, and both vans are in limited supply.
Cheers John

hi guys , just wondering how a caravan site would charge for a camper and caravan ? do you even think both would be allowed on the same pitch ?

there could be problems , maybe easier getting a bigger motorhome or sell motorhome and buy a bigger caravan , also less vehicles to maintain ,store,ect ect .
