Compact Touring Without Compromise
For many travellers, the ideal motorhome blends luxury with agility – something beautifully designed inside, refined to drive, and compact enough to navigate the UK’s winding coastal roads, market towns and countryside lanes. This is where small luxury motorhomes excel: they offer high-end comfort in a size that makes touring simpler, safer and more enjoyable.
Coachman’s 2025/2026 motorhome ranges demonstrate how much luxury can be achieved in a compact footprint. With premium materials, intelligent layouts and advanced engineering from Mercedes-Benz, AL-KO and Fiat, these models deliver the perfect balance of refinement and practicality.
If you’re looking for the best small luxury motorhomes for UK roads, here’s how Coachman leads the way.
