Who should consider the Hobby Excellent 560 UL?
Who it suits
- Couples or families needing four berths, twin beds and a separate rear lounge area.
- Buyers who value the extra interior width of a 2.5m caravan and can accommodate its towing requirements.
- Tourers able to plan loading carefully around the recorded 158kg payload.
Reasons to consider it
- The twin-bed layout provides separate sleeping spaces while retaining four berths.
- The rear U-shaped lounge offers a distinct seating area within the 7.51m body.
- The 2.5m width can provide more interior space than a narrower caravan.
- Recorded equipment includes the HobbyConnect onboard control system, ambient lighting and a Dometic Super Slim Tower refrigerator.
What to check
- Confirm the exact model year and trim.
- Check the actual unladen weight, available payload and fitted options, since specifications can vary.
- Inspect the twin-bed arrangement, mattresses, lounge conversion and storage access in person.
- Verify the equipment fitted, including the refrigerator and HobbyConnect system.
- Confirm the caravan's dimensions against the intended storage location, access route and pitch arrangements.
Worth knowing: The wide body may demand extra care on narrow UK roads and at storage sites. The twin beds use more floor space than a fixed double arrangement. There is no current marketplace listing recorded, so availability and asking price require separate confirmation.

Hobby Excellent 560 UL ownership checks
- Measure storage gates, access points and the planned pitch for the 2.5m width, 7.51m length and 2.63m height.
- Use the vehicle plate and handbook when checking weight and dimensional limits.
- Review how luggage is distributed around the twin beds, rear lounge and storage areas rather than concentrating weight in one location.
- Practise positioning the long, wide single-axle caravan before travelling on narrow access roads.
- Check that the four-berth sleeping arrangement suits the intended occupants, particularly if the twin beds will be used regularly.
Common mistakes to avoid
- Assuming the recorded 158kg payload is sufficient without weighing touring equipment.
- Treating the listed dimensions as interchangeable with a particular year's or trim's specification.
Worth knowing: The recorded data does not provide a GVW. Weights and equipment may vary with model year, trim and optional equipment. A qualified weighbridge check is preferable to relying on estimates.
