Hi.
While on Looe CC site we spotted a Kampa awning.
It looked really light & airy, & the chap had it up in about the same time as it took to put up our PDQ.
Just wondered if anyone has one / has used one etc...any opinions...?
Cheers.

Kampa Awnings...

We get away 2 -3 weekends a month so i wanted an awning that was big enough for the kids stuff but easy to put up and take down, We had a Royal Tourer last year that was excellent for space and really easy to put assemble but a bit on the lightweight side in material and so only lasted 12 months. We purchased the Kampa Fiesta this year with the additional annex which is virtually the same shape as the Royal Tourer, its absolutely top draw, the material is not your cheap tent like material and is very much water proof, the extra anex gives you much more room without using it for an extra sleeping room. In my opinion this is the best awning on the market if you are getting about a lot 17

They are just like the one we are thinking of getting for our new van, the one we have seen is in towsure, but the material did look on the thin side. Also there is a sunncamp one but again not sure on the quality.

We have got the Kampa 260 in July and the only complaint we have got is, when it rains the one roof top sags.

It has been on 3 different sites in France this summer and it still sags. We even repegged it to no avail  17 , still got the sag in the next rain fall

 

Apart from that , we like the Kampa, plenty of room, easy to put up.
