Hi

Hope someone out there can help with this

We have a VW T5 and a drive away awning - some sites say they don't accept tents but do accept awnings.

So does a drive away awning become a tent if you drive away from it????

Do I need to phone individual campsites and check what their policy is?

Anyone else had a similar dilemma?

Thanks

If it's a "proper" driveaway awning,I would think you'd be find...

(..but I suppose it wouldn't hurt to ask 'em though...)

Yea it's a proper one - Outdoor Revolution Movelite Square Driveaway Awning.

Phoned a site today and they didn't seem sure what it was

Thanks for reply

We had one of them  (..but never used it in anger though)..

Yeah,I think you'll be fine..(..I think sites have a problem when folk just use the likes of gazebos and day/utlity tents,as "awnings" ).

I have a proper drive away awning, I just book as a campervan with awning and never had any problems yet. I've often wondered about some stuctures classed as 'awnings' though as many of them are obviously just tents with a couple of windows and an extra bit at the back, but a proper drive away awning is obviously an awning.
