The first Bailey caravan was built by Martin Bailey in his garage in South Bristol in 1947 and was subsequently sold at Ashton Gate market for the sum of £200. A year later, F G Bailey Ltd was formed and went into production.The company developed rapidly throughout the 1950s, eventually outgrowing its original site and moving to its present address at South Liberty Lane in 1960. In 1977 the company was purchased by Patrick and Stephen Howard and Bailey of Bristol Ltd, as its now known name, has remained in the Howard family ownership ever since.  Bailey of Bristol celebrated its 75th Birthday in 2022.

 

Bailey Alicanto Grande Evora

"There’s an open plan spacious interior in this luxury caravan. A spacious and well-equipped kitchen for preparing family meals. Luxury soft furnishings and a very comfortable caravan with high spec and the benefit of an infinity window. I like the added touch of mood lighting with a colour selection."

Judge's comment

Bailey Unicorn Seville

"The large infinity window lets in lots of natural daylight. Thoughtful touches like the plastic bunk liner for the side locker add to the practicality of the design."

Judge's comment

Bailey Unicorn Madrid

"This is a great layout for a young family or for a couple. I could see grandparents buying this to take their grandchildren away with them. Dinettes are great for offering lots of layout options - beds, dining, lounging. I love it!"

Judge's comment

Bailey Phoenix GT75 762

"Flexible for a large family with plenty of seating and an unusual bunk bed option. Stable door for toddler/baby safety. Bunk beds are the main attraction and there’s seating for six."

"Stylish contemporary interior with a versatile layout for a family, couple or grandparents."

Judge's comment

Bailey Unicorn Seville

"It is the lightest and smallest caravan in the unicorn range, but it's like a tardis inside - large washroom, lots of worktop space, seating that can be a double or single beds. Luxurious, modern feel too, so bright and airy with the large front window and light upholstery."

Judge's comment

Bailey Pegasus Grande SE Ancona

"What a super family van with a separate dining area near the door that converts to a double and has the option of an additional bunk. Really like the fact that the front seats can either be singles or double. Would suit a young family and a family with teenagers!"
