The Caravan Club has lavished praise on Auto-Sleepers’ AS Kensington model after testing was carried out by renowned expert Rob McCabe.
With half a century of motorhome manufacturing experience under its belt, Auto-Sleepers has only recently delved into the world of caravan design.
The firm set out to build a touring caravan that was both luxurious and built to exacting standards and the result was the AS Kensington.
Mr McCabe gave the tourer a total score of eight out of ten, reserving special praise for construction, which gained top marks.
He also praised the towability, kitchen and washroom, which were all given nine out of ten.
Meanwhile, usability, living and sleeping, and lighting and electrics were each awarded eight out of ten.
“Workmanship is exceptional,” he said, adding that “the tick-set dark wood of the furniture looks and feels gorgeous”.
Auto-Sleepers has a proud history, having been the first firm to design a rising roof on a campervan, as well as being pioneers of the one-piece monocoque shell design.
