Whether you're looking to expand your living space, seek shelter from the unpredictable British weather, or simply desire a cosy area to relax and entertain, the right caravan awning can make all the difference.

From easy-to-set-up lightweight models to more robust options offering additional living space and protection, we have something for every type of camper. Enjoy increased privacy, enhanced protection from the elements, and a seamless extension of your caravan's living area, making your time at the campsite more enjoyable and comfortable.

Main benefits of a caravan awning

1. Extended Living Space: Caravan awnings effectively increase the living area of your caravan, providing extra space for dining, relaxing, or entertaining guests. This additional room is particularly beneficial for families or groups who require more space than the caravan interior offers.

2. Protection from the Elements: Awnings offer shelter from various weather conditions, whether it's providing shade on sunny days or protecting you from rain and wind. This allows you to enjoy the outdoors comfortably, regardless of the weather.

3. Increased Privacy: Caravan awnings can enhance your privacy at the campsite. They create a semi-private area where you can relax away from the gaze of neighbouring campers.

4. Versatility: Many caravan awnings come with features such as removable sides or front panels, allowing you to customise the space according to your needs. This versatility makes them suitable for different camping situations and preferences.

5. Storage Space: The extra area provided by an awning can be used for storing outdoor gear, bicycles, or other camping equipment, keeping your caravan interior uncluttered and more spacious.

Types of Caravan Awnings

Full-size awnings

These awnings cover the entire length of the caravan, providing a substantial amount of extra space. Ideal for extended stays and families needing additional living or sleeping areas.

Porch awnings

Smaller than full awnings, caravan porch awnings cover the entrance of the caravan. They are perfect for creating a small, sheltered space for outdoor dining or relaxing without the commitment of a full awning.

Poled awnings

Made with robust materials and poles, traditional poled awnings are known for their durability and stability. They are suitable for all weather conditions and are a great option for those who camp in one location for extended periods.

Inflatable Caravan awnings

Known for their ease of setup, inflatable awnings use air beams instead of traditional metal or fiberglass poles. They are quick to erect and take down, making them a popular choice for those who frequently move between sites as you can set off for next trip within minutes.

Choosing the Right Caravan Awning

Factors to consider when buying a caravan awning

Selecting the right caravan awning is essential as they can be a large expense and one you will likely purchase to last over 5-10 years. When figuring out your ideal awning, there are several key factors to keep in mind to ensure you make the best choice for your needs:

1. Size and Fit: Ensure the awning fits your caravan perfectly. Measure the length and height of your caravan to match the awning size. Consider both the ground-to-ground measurement and the awning rail length.

2. Material Quality: Look for durable materials that can withstand various weather conditions. Polyester and acrylic are popular choices, offering a balance of lightweight properties and resilience against rain, wind, and UV rays.

3. Frame Type: The frame of the awning impacts its stability and ease of setup. Options include aluminium, fiberglass, and steel. Aluminium frames are lightweight and easy to handle, while steel frames offer more strength but are heavier.

4. Ease of Assembly: Consider how easy the awning is to set up and take down. This is particularly important if you frequently move between campsites. Look for awnings with user-friendly designs and clear instructions.

5. Ventilation and Airflow: Good ventilation is key for comfort, especially in warm weather. Look for awnings with mesh panels or additional ventilation options to ensure a comfortable environment.

6. Additional Features: Features like extra doors, windows, and annexes can enhance the awning's functionality. Think about what additional features will benefit your camping lifestyle.

7. Style and Design: Choose an awning that complements the aesthetics of your caravan. A wide range of colours and designs are available, so select one that suits your taste and enhances the overall look of your caravan.

8. Price and Budget: Set a budget for your awning purchase. While it's important to find an affordable option, investing in a high-quality awning can save you money in the long run due to its durability and longevity.
