Buying a six berth Altea Tamar 552 Dt.
Who it suits

- • Tourers seeking a lightweight six berth caravan under 1500kg MTPLM.
Reasons to consider it
- • The triple bunk configuration provides dedicated sleeping quarters for children.
- • A 1420kg MTPLM makes it compatible with a wider range of family tow cars.
- • The 2.3 metre width and panoramic window create a light, airy interior.
What to check
- • Verify the operation of the fold-away sink in the Ergo bathroom.
- • Inspect the GRP polyester body panels for any signs of impact.
- • Check the condition of the triple bunk mattresses and ladder.

Compare the Bailey Altea Tamar 552 Dt Caravan with similar models
| Model | Berths | MTPLM | Length | Typical price |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Bailey Altea Tamar 552 Dt Caravan | 6 | 1420 kg | 7.61 m | £14,500 to £24,500 |
| Bailey Phoenix | 6 | 1600 kg | 7.37 m | £14,500 to £28,500 |
| Sprite Major | 6 | 1450 kg | 7.54 m | £12,500 to £28,500 |
The Altea Tamar 552 Dt occupies a specific niche as a 7.61 metre caravan that maintains a 1420kg MTPLM despite its six berth capacity. While alternatives like the Bailey Phoenix or Sprite Major offer similar berth counts, the Tamar is distinguished by its triple fixed bunk arrangement and GRP body. Buyers must balance the generous 7.61 metre length against the 193kg payload, which is lower than some heavier alternatives in the 1500kg to 1650kg range.
Worth knowing: Specifications and prices can vary by model year, trim and optional equipment.
Managing your Altea Tamar 552 Dt.
- Utilise the under-seat lockers for heavier items to keep the centre of gravity low.
- Regularly check the seals around the panoramic front window.
- Monitor the battery charge when using the LED lighting and Truma system off-grid.
Common mistakes to avoid
- • Exceeding the 193kg payload by carrying heavy awnings inside the caravan.
- • Uneven weight distribution which can affect the stability of the AL-KO chassis.
Worth knowing: Always use a calibrated noseweight gauge due to the 7.61 metre length on a single axle.
Alternatives to the Bailey Altea Tamar 552 Dt Caravan
The Phoenix offers a shorter 7.37 metre length for those seeking a more compact six berth Bailey model.
Sprite MajorThe Sprite Major provides a similar six berth capacity with a slightly higher MTPLM of 1450kg.
Bailey Pegasus AnconaThe Pegasus Ancona features a six berth layout within a 7.3 metre length, making it shorter than the Tamar.
