Just returned from our third trip to the southern part of France, and yet again took with us our awning, only to never put it up once! The warmer weather encourages sitting/cooking/eating outside, so the awning isn’t needed.
But - we now feel it would be handy to have a roll-out awning, so that things like table & chairs etc could be left out, instead of folding them down, and placing under the caravan when rain is threatened or happens.
but because we want to continue to use our Kampa air awning when in UK, a permanently fixed (to side of caravan) rollout awning which would inhibit use of the former wouldn’t really meet our needs.
has anyone experience of the type of rollout awnings which roll into a bag, which in itself uses the awning rail to fit, and therefore presumably can be slid in/out at will? I think both Flamma and Kampa make such, but there may be others. Can the bag (with awning inside) be left in situ when travelling or does one have to remove? Do folk add front/sides to the roof when needed? Or is it just a roof?
any feedback much appreciated.
