This is our floor plan almost to the T, we were looking for a Rear Kitchen so after looking at rvtrader.com for months we learned which models had what we wanted and looked at the alerts every day until we found one that checked all of the boxes.
The only way to improve your results is to add miles to your search area, we drove 4.5 hours to look at the one in sig we ended up with but the layout of rhagfo's unit is almost a mirror image of ours.

This is our HitchHiker II, 32.5 UKTG (U shaped kitchen, Triple glide). Of course no longer made but later models may be available from individuals or Kansas RV Center in Chanute, Kansas. Prices shown were when this was a new model in 2009, I believe. Ours is a 2007 still going strong.
Note large windows at rear and over dining table.

I'm 5'11" and I would say most nose bedrooms I've walked through are just tall enough for me with some ducking/tilting. I would still walk through several of them to get an idea of what works for you though.
I like the FL's. My thought is I'm not going to be standing much, usually walking to a chair/couch or maybe lying on the floor for my back. The same could probably be said about a bedroom though. Again, just comes down to preference and comforts.
Our 5er is a '97 Damon Challenger 30 RK (not the countless motorhomes google brings up).
I had to modify this from a different floorplan so it may not be exactly to scale. (*edit- dang, the ceiling fan is centered but I'm too lazy to move and re-upload :D)
30RK
I can honestly say we've never used the dinette in the 1-1.5yrs we've had it and when the couch is used, your looking at the entertainment center or conversing with others in the trailer. I have thought about swapping the dinette with the couch though because when the kids have it folded out, it becomes a pita to get to the kitchen. Outside of the couch/bed situation though, I do like the layout.
I'm also a fan of the side halway instead of the centered/angled ones which seem to waste space and split up the bathroom. I like all my facilities in the same room. lol
And to the 5er info. I have the RV info filled out in profile. Weird it doesn't show. I added to my sig now. Going forward should be there. Thanks for the heads up.
