2011 symbol ES Dorset

Hi I am a new member to this forum, and look forward to advice from other members.  We had an Autosleeper Pescara for quite a few years but sold it as we were not using it often enough.  We have decided it is time to start again  We have just bought a 2011 Dorset ES and are about to go on our first trip.  We would like to use the double bed arrangement, but the storage of the fill in bed cushions is a bit of a problem.  They were in the wardrobe when we bought the van, but this is not ideal for a long trip.  Any advice please?

Hello and from Leicestershire, sorry cannot help with your cushions.

Hi,
Are you able to sleep across the van and leave the bits and bobs at home? We do that with our symbol and we chose it over the duetto because we could do that the symbol being wider,
Chris

Hi and welcome to the forum from sunny Bridlington

Welcome from N.E Wales.   

Thanks for the welcome messages. Thanks Chrisvesey. I think our Dorset must have a different arrangement. We have two forward facing seat belted seats in the back. We do intend to sleep across the van but there are two long cushions joined together which must be inserted to form the bed. Tried without them but there is a gap. They are just so bulky for travelling.

Hello & welcome from S/Yorks.
