INSIDE THE 16FT PIAZZA
Royal Flair is a large proponent of drop-down beds. You’ ll find them on many of its models, and this Piazza is no different. It sits above a rear club lounge( yes, a club lounge in a 16-footer). Lower the table, remove a couple of backrest cushions, and push a button. The bed will lower electrically to your preferred height and, if required, you could position the cushions onto the table for a second bed, with the main bed positioned to the required height above.
Often, we feel the need to point out a lack of bench space, particularly in smaller vans such as this. That’ s not the case here, though. Indeed, the kitchen has plenty of it, mostly due to the fact that our review van wasn’ t
equipped with a traditional cooktop, griller and oven – the idea being to use a portable induction stove instead, or the external slide-out barbecue. This is a design idea we are seeing more and more of as battery technology has improved. However, you can opt for a traditional gas cooktop, etc., if you wish.
The kitchen does, however, have a sink with filtered drinking water, an array of overhead lockers, a microwave, and a small underbench pull-out pantry.
The offside is filled with storage units, including one with yet another bench top, as well as wardrobe with space to hang up some clothes next to a 141L slimline Thetford absorption fridge.
