Model Summary:
Unit Type:
The Sunncamp Holiday range is comprised of a number of models, each containing the word 'holiday', followed by a number (representing the awning depth in cm) and either 'S', or 'SE'.
The Holidays are, normally, thought of as an entry level model. This is not down to build quality, but, more, equipment levels, which, by modern standards are, relatively, basic. The SE model does include a kitchen which is basic, but functional, but neither model includes items such as additional internal storage (under seat lockers are provided) or zip in ground sheet. In spite of this entry level reputation, owner satisfaction appears to be very high and resale prices remain bouyant.
Most Holidays are distinguished by their protruding kitchen area on the right hand side (viewed from the front). Early models were, primarily produced in green and white or blue and white, with later, acrylic, models being, primarily a two tone grey and white. All models seem to have shared the same geometrical patterned curtains and soft furnishings, throughout their life, making them a little difficullt to date, based, purely, on outward appearance.
The Holiday 550 is the largest of the Holiday range, with an awning depth of 550cm (565cm, with tapered front aspect) and, like the majority of the other Holiday models, a width of 420cm. It was also the newest poled model, both in terms of being the last one to be introduced, and one of the two last ones (along with the Holiday 240) to cease production in 2014 / 2015. Because of its relatively short lifespan, the Holiday 550 only seems to have been available in the colour scheme in the pictures on this page.
The 550 differed from the Holiday norm in many ways, not least of which was its curved awning roof design and curved 'dormer' windows on each side. These were described as, in the brochure, as 'push out kitchen / utility areas' although, in reality, they added nothing to overall floor space, only at head level. There were no toilet / wardrobe compartments, however, this model did feature a zip in PVC ground sheet to the main awning area, an enclosed porch area and zip on sun canopy.
Included in the Paperwork section, above, is the sales brochure, from 2012, for all of the trailer tent models of the time, including the 550, as well as a copy of the setup instructions for the 550 range. Below, we also have a copy of the full Sunncamp product brochure, from 2014, which includes, at the end, the two remaining trailer tent models; the Holiday 240 and the Holiday 550
At the bottom right of the page, we have a video of the Holiday 550. This is a six minute, owner produced, video, showing the time lapse set up, and walk around tour of a 550 model.
