Does anybody know of anyone who offers a service of putting up a caravan awning in Anglesey? I am going in August and have never put up a full length awning before and havent got a clue how to do it, on my own, with my son, and quite basically, if I can pay someone to do it, and its not megga expensive, I would rather?

Hi

m sure there will be others on site willing to help you out. Most people will help each other out on site with any problems that may occur, this is the frienship camping and caravaning brings.

Hope you get on ok

I agree with the post above. I would just go and ask for some help from fellow campers when you arrive. We needed help our first time putting the awning up and lots came to help us and we would do the same.

I would phone ahead to the campsite and speak to the warden/owner. Many are experienced campers and/or caravanners I am sure they would help you out.

Now is the time to learn, its easy if you take your time.
If you dont make the effort you will never be able to do it
the suggestion above sounds good, phone ahead and ask the site owner if he has a member of staff that would help

Once it is up have a good look at all the joints and see if they are marked in any way, most are but some are not.

If not either mark them in some way with tape or a marker pen so when you do it next time you will know what goes where.

Hi Julia,

This YouTube Video will give you a good idea on how to erect a full awning.

Hope this helps
