2012 Elddis Odyssey 656
  • Sep 21 2011 8:26PM Mr & Mrs Blencowe

    We purchased our 2011 Odyssey 656 in April after much research and comparing layout flexibilty.
    It provides excellent accomodation for a grown family of 4 and 2 younger children before you've got to think about the awning.
    This was our second new Elddis in 11 months so it was important that we got this choice right, we're sure we did.
    As for quality, materials are fine and so far only minor niggles have been handed back to the dealer.
    Can envisage this model becoming a classic, glad to see the 2012 equivalent retaining much of its character.

    We have just purchased our lovely Odyssey 656 from Pearman Briggs Caravans. A special thanks to Martyn who was extremely helpful. Love our new van, the model is perfect for everything we were looking for. As far as i am aware, this is the only model with fixed bed and dinette converting into bunk beds which was a must for us upgrading. Extremely pleased.

    My wife, Teresa, and I recently attended the caravan show at the NEC Birmingham and visited the Wandahome stand. We were looked after by Mel who went out of his way to show us around all the differing caravans in the Wandahome ranges. Ours was an exacting list of things that we required from our new caravan and after two hours or so Mel came up with the Elddis Odyssey 656 (2011 model) and was extremely patient as my wife inspected every nook and cranny. We were supplied with numerous cups of tea and all in all had a very relaxed and totally hassle free caravan buying experience. Please pass on our thanks to Mel, and all on the Wandahome stands, and we look forward meeting them again when we collect our new caravan in December.

    All the best
