• Alde wet central heating — radiator-style warmth that reaches every corner of the caravan, brilliant for extending the season well into autumn and winter touring
• That enormous end washroom — a full-width space with a separate shower cubicle, dedicated dressing area and generous wardrobe storage all in one room
• SoLiD bonded construction — no creaks, no draughts, and a long manufacturer warranty against water ingress for proper peace of mind
• Powrtouch Evolution mover — pitch solo without breaking a sweat, even on tight, uneven rally fields
• The Sky-Scape panoramic sunroof — floods the front lounge with natural light and makes even a small van feel open and airy

Bedroom The front lounge doubles as the sleeping area, converting into either a large double bed or two comfortable singles depending on your preference. The slatted bed base ensures proper support, and the cushions use Elddis’ ActivCare stain-resistant fabric — practical for real-world touring. Underneath the seating, generous storage compartments give you somewhere to stow bedding, awning gear and everything else that usually ends up in a pile by the door.

Washroom This is where the 520 really earns its keep. The full-width rear washroom is genuinely impressive for a single-axle caravan — you get a fully lined separate shower cubicle, a proper vanity unit with basin, a swivel-bowl toilet, and a large wardrobe with dressing space built right into the room. It feels more like something you’d find in a much longer, heavier caravan.

Lounge Up front, a pair of parallel sofas face each other across a free-standing table, creating a sociable and comfortable daytime living space. The Sky-Scape panoramic sunroof overhead lets in a huge amount of light, and there’s a good spread of 12V and 240V sockets for keeping devices charged. Curtains and flyscreens are fitted throughout.

Kitchen In the centre of the caravan, the kitchen is fitted with a Thetford oven and grill, a dual-fuel hob with three gas burners and one electric hotplate, a Dometic fridge-freezer, and a built-in microwave. A worktop extension flap provides extra prep space when you need it, and the overall layout keeps cooking separate from the lounge and washroom — no steaming up the bathroom mirror.

Technology Entertainment is handled by a Pioneer stereo head unit with USB connectivity and iPhone compatibility. A TV signal distribution box is fitted in the overhead locker, pre-wired for an aerial connection so you’re ready to plug in a screen whenever you want. The Alde wet central heating system is controlled via its own dedicated touchscreen panel, letting you programme heating schedules and set temperatures without getting out of bed.

The 2024 Elddis Affinity 520 features high-gloss GRP sides — a step up from the aluminium panels used on earlier models — offering better UV resistance, improved impact protection and a finish that’s easier to keep clean on site. Alloy wheels are fitted as standard, and the single-axle chassis rides on 185 R14 tyres.

A Powrtouch Evolution motor mover is confirmed fitted (verified from the undercarriage), and a rear-mounted bike rack provides a handy way to carry cycles without cluttering up the awning. The Alde wet central heating system has an exterior fill point for easy top-ups, and an external gas locker and battery compartment are both accessible from outside the caravan. An external BBQ point is also standard on the Affinity specification, letting you hook up a grill without running a separate gas bottle.

For towing confidence, the AL-KO ATC electronic stability system is standard across the Affinity range, automatically applying the caravan’s brakes independently if it detects snaking — a feature that can also reduce your caravan insurance premiums.

Has this caravan been damp checked? Every used caravan at Golden Castle goes through a thorough pre-sale inspection, including a full damp check. We’re happy to walk you through the results in person and show you the readings so you can buy with confidence.

Can I tow this on a standard UK licence? Yes. At 1,345 kg MTPLM, the Elddis Affinity 520 sits comfortably within the towing limits for most drivers holding a standard UK licence. Plenty of popular mid-size SUVs, estates and crossovers will handle it without any trouble.

Will my car tow it? As a general guide, your car’s kerbweight should ideally match or exceed the caravan’s MTPLM of 1,345 kg. That puts it within reach of vehicles like the Ford Kuga, Škoda Kodiaq, Volkswagen Tiguan and similar. If you’re unsure, bring your V5C along and we’ll check the numbers with you on site.

What is Alde heating, and is it better than blown-air? Alde is a wet central heating system that uses heated fluid circulating through radiators behind the furniture — much like the central heating in your house. It provides a more even, consistent warmth compared to blown-air systems, heats up quietly, and is particularly popular with caravanners who tour in cooler months or extend their season into autumn and winter.

Can I check this caravan’s history? Absolutely. The VIN number is SGES000EXRAFF0041, and you can verify it on the CRiS website to check ownership history and confirm it hasn’t been recorded as stolen or written off.

Do you offer part exchange? Yes — we accept part exchanges on touring caravans and motorhomes. Get in touch with your details and we’ll give you a straightforward valuation.
