How to find an affordable family caravan with bunks in Australia.

Purchasing an affordable family caravan with bunks doesn’t mean compromising on quality and features.

 

Costs rising in family households make travelling harder for Australian families, with overseas travel becoming out of reach for many. While taking the tribe overseas can be a once-in-a-lifetime event if you can achieve it, travelling in our own beautiful country remains within reach for many, with caravanning growing in popularity. 

 

The ability to invest once in a family caravan with bunks and travel endlessly makes it an economical way to make memories as a family, while learning about and seeing the endless beauty within our own borders. 

 

Choosing the right caravan with bunks for your family can mean years of travel in comfort. 

 

Getting the best value for money when choosing a family caravan takes careful consideration, and we are here to assist you in achieving this without sacrificing what matters.

What makes a family caravan with bunks ‘affordable’?

 

In our experience, ‘cheap’ does not equal ‘affordable’, here’s why. 

 

Many caravans on the market are imported, either wholly or partly (the shell is imported, then the manufacturer adds the chassis here).  While this can mean the initial outlay seems great for your back pocket, there can be many costs, improvements or issues that arise once you hit the road. 

 

These imported caravans generally lack the kind of after-sales support and replacement parts you can require quickly, especially when you are travelling. This can mean costly repairs, massive delays, and we won’t mention the frustration!

 

Cheap caravans generally include low-quality accessories, finishes, and even manufacturing, meaning your once-in-a-lifetime investment may not suffice for a lifetime of adventures. 

 

A Great Escape Caravan can be an affordable investment for families wanting to caravan around Australia.  All our caravans are built here in Melbourne, not far from our showroom in Ravenhall – meaning we have total quality control for each caravan we build. 

 

Our relationships with caravan accessory and appliance suppliers ensure that the after-sales support from us and our partners is second to none.  Across the country, we have contacts willing and able to assist should any issues arise – and that’s what makes an affordable family caravan.

 

The materials used in a Great Escape Caravan, plus our experience in designing Australian-made family caravans with bunks that are built for travelling Australia with families, mean you can rest assured you’ve made a quality caravan investment that will last you years. 

 

When you read our reviews, you will find that the Great Escape Caravan Family are happy with their best value family caravan. Many are returning for their family’s second Great Escape Caravan as their family dynamic changes!

Essential features to stick to your guns on – no compromise here!

There are many aspects to consider when investing in a family caravan, but the utmost importance is safety. 

 

Bunk bed configuration

Avoid fold-down bunks, small space bunks and those with minimal air flow – you may find them in ‘cheap family caravans’, but you won’t find those here. 

The safety and well-being of everyone is paramount when we design spacious beds for the whole family, including the bunks.  Materials used are easily identified, and we can assist with customising these sleeping areas to meet your tastes and requirements. 

There is no one-size-fits-all solution in our floor plans. 

 

Ensuite facilities

Our family caravans with bunks are designed for semi-off-grid or full-off-grid, depending on your preference.  Each floor plan has been carefully planned to optimise space and safety for all.  Our affordable family caravans with bunks shower and toilet make each stay comfortable for your family.

 

Storage solutions

The toys, the bikes, the fishing gear and everything else have their place in a Great Escape Caravan.  Our families have the option to choose a family caravan model that includes all the internal and external storage they need – designed for them, or they can add extra storage, toolboxes, bike racks and more to suit their individual needs. 

When your family likes to take everything AND the kitchen sink, we are here for you. Keeping you towing safely with all your gear safely stored away.

 

How Australian-made caravans offer better value.

Great Escape Caravans – made in Australia, always. 

 

Avoid paying for features you don’t want, add in features you do.  Create an exterior or interior to suit your own tastes and requirements.  We cater for fully customised designs as well as our tow-away-today models designed for you. 

 

When you choose to build with us, you can select budget-friendly finishes and accessories that matter less to you and invest where it counts.

 

Travelling with your family on often long, unpopulated roads and areas means you need confidence in your caravan and its ability to tow well in the situations it was built for. 

 

Having a team with after-sales service and support is imperative for complete confidence in your family caravan.  Parts, service and repairs are readily available to get to you when and where you need them, without long delays or expensive shipping costs. 

 

We are here to assist. 

 

Warranty and service availability are available nationwide through our trusted partners, and we are always just a phone call away.
