OK so youv'e gone mad and bought a bigger caravan. You have a proper canvas awning and it is now too small.  What do you do?

The dearest option is to buy a new one.

If the difference between your awning and the needs of the new caravan is not too much - check with the manufacturer as it is often possible to have a panel inserted in the roof.

If the gap is a metre or more - try it on the new caravan and see if you can convert it to a porch. Isabella certainly tell you how to do this on Their web site but to get it right you need to be on level ground.

The "A" measurement for my caravan is 1000 cm and I use a 750 cm awning as a porch - luckilly it misses the front window. I did this myself and bought the extra pole and padding to make it draught proof.
