We are used to camping in a fairly large family tent and have recently got a VW T5. One if the reasons we swapped to the van is because we got fed up of Packing and pitching a wet tent.
The quandary I now find myself in is how to we gain some sheltered outdoor space without an awning? I’ve looked at small inflatable ones but I still think it will be the same amount of faff as a tent.
Was thinking maybe a sun canopy and a big windbreaker but would a sun canopy keep the rain off? Any bright spark solved this problem before?
Thinking we could probably get a small pop up pup tent as a storage area for chairs and kids bikes etc when we’re out and about to keep them dry
Lianne, on this page last post made last night 29th. Posted by Matteli...take a look, you will only get the exact same replies. It really is a matter of choice.The question is posed many times on here
Hi Lianne,
I won a toilet tent in 2016's Christmas Advent Calendar contest from Olpro.
Now I have mastered how to put it away quickly, it is brillaint as an outdoor covered storage space. It doubles up as a changing room, sheltered seating porch and of course as a toilet tent ! A real assett.
