Daughter is looking at buying the Kampa 200 poled awning and wonders what you can fit in eg will it fit a table and chairs for 2 adults and 2 children.

Sometimes a little rain must fall before you reach a rainbow.

The work will wait while you show the child the rainbow, but the rainbow won't wait while you finish the work.

Just to qualify my original post. It's 200 x 250.

We have a Kampa 200 Pro that we use during the winter, we use it as somewhere to take off wet gear and store various pieces of footwear. The 200 is quite a small area for a table and chairs, 260 and above would be more suitable.

We sometimes use a 260 porch awning only because we can't use anything bigger and although we can get a table and two chairs in it there's not much room for anything more really.
As your caravan is short in length wouldn't you be better buying a full awning?
I find it takes just as long to erect the 260 as it does a full awning plus it automatically shuts out any draughts all the way round.

I'd say too small we just get away with an Isabella magnum 250 which is 250 x 340.
