Large awnings

hi wondered whether someone could advise me. I am travelling to south of france in four weeks time. i have just purchased a Isabella moonlight awning which is quite large. I have also got a porch awning. my question is l have read up quite a bit about campsites in France and all seem quite close together (not much space between caravans) would it be wise to take the large one or the smaller one. We are going for three weeks but havent booked any sites so not sure whether we will stay on a site for all that time as we will probably take a week travelling down there  and back to calais. Sorry if its a silly question but any advice would be grateful.
