Barefoot launches a caravan with a lilac colour scheme

Barefoot, the monocoque caravan company, has extended the colours you can have your caravan decked out in by launching a new model in an eye-catching shade of lilac.

The caravan manufacturer is well known for its charming designs. The small caravans have a one-piece monocoque body made by fibreglass experts Watsonian Squire.

Barefoot founder Cathy Chamberlain says the new lilac colour was suggested to them by a solo woman caravanner, called Pam.

Cathy said, “There is something quite adventurous about this colour choice, and it seems that people are really appreciating a bit of cheer while times are difficult and uncertain. Lilac is becoming fashionable again. It is optimistic and cheerful, and reminds people of happy times.”

Barefoot models are available in two styles – the Classic and the Forward. The new lilac colour scheme follows in the footsteps of the baby-pink Forward model which was on display at the October NEC Show.

Peter Baber is Reviews Editor of both Practical Motorhome and Practical Caravan. He has been reviewing motorhomes for the best part of a decade now. His first caravan reviews date back to the early 1990s when he first worked on Practical Caravan, before he embarked on a 20-year career in business journalism which saw him edit a wide variety of magazines, and launch a few too, including one that won an award. Although he enjoyed that, he always knew he wanted to come back. Peter reports on all the new models that make it to dealer forecourts each season, giving his judgement online and in magazine reviews. He has twice been shortlisted for a Caravan Writers Guild award. When he is not working, apart from going on motorhome trips himself (mostly local to where he lives in West Yorkshire, but also last year right across France) he likes trying to write novels, cooking, throwing the odd pot, and has just taken up tennis.
