When picking your new motorhome, you’ll want comfort, practicality, and the occasional touch of ‘wow’. Luckily, 2026 is delivering a line-up that offers something for everyone, from luxury liners to family-friendly tourers. So, grab a cuppa and meet the five motorhomes that will be turning heads this year.

Bailey Autograph 81‑5 – family-friendly with flair

The Bailey Autograph 81‑5 is the motorhome equivalent of a polite and fun family member: it’s elegant, practical, and easy to get along with. With two lounges and cleverly arranged sleeping areas, it keeps family squabbles to a minimum. This is a motorhome that’s as comfortable on long trips as it is on weekend escapes, with just enough flair to make touring feel like a treat. Families who want plenty of social space and sensible, practical touches will love this.

Morelo Home 78 L – the luxury standard

If motorhomes were boutique hotels on wheels, the Morelo Home 78 L would be the penthouse suite. Completely redesigned inside and out, it features thick-insulated walls, a heated double floor, and is so roomy you might forget you’re on the road. It’s for those who want big-trip comfort without sacrificing style. Yes, it sits at the upper end of the price spectrum, but then luxury isn’t measured in miles per gallon. If you want to feel like you’re checking into a five-star suite on four wheels, here it is.

Carthago Liner-for-Two I 53L – the touring classic

The Carthago Liner-for-Two I 53L is for anyone who takes comfort seriously. Essentially a touring apartment on wheels, it’s spacious, luxurious, and brilliantly thought out inside. It’s perfect for couples who want to take that big‑trip without feeling like they’re living in a minibus. Once parked up, you may well forget you’re even in a motorhome – just remember to open the blinds. This is best for couples who want luxury and practical touring in one compact package.

Coachman Avventura 565 – smooth and stylish

The Coachman Avventura range is the definition of understated luxury. Interiors are smart without being fussy, layouts are practical and intuitive, and everything feels designed to make life on the road as easy as possible. It’s comfort and quality done right – no gimmicks, just a motorhome that behaves exactly as it should, wherever your travels take you. Premium comfort? You got it. Smart layout? Yes. It’s got it all and more.

Elddis Avalon 255 – premium comfort for every road trip

The Elddis Avalon 255 offers a fixed French bed and corner washroom and combines thoughtful layouts, comfort-first interiors, and clever space management, making longer trips more pleasant. It’s bright, well-finished, and built for touring without compromise – the kind of rig that makes the moment you slide into the driver’s seat feel like the start of a proper holiday. This offers premium touring comforts without veering into the super-luxury price brackets.

Final thought

No matter your style – weekend brunches on-site, family road trips, or stylish European touring – 2026 has a motorhome for you. Just remember: the kettle stays hot and the seatbelt clicks. Words to live by.
