I have recently bought my first little campervan and am so delighted with it! It is a Peugeot Boxer Harmony (year 2000) and I am keen to get a small (preferably rear) awing  - the only problem is I don't know where to start! Total height of campervan is 2.7 meters. Ideally i would  like  something super easy to erect. Any advice greatly appreciated 

Many thanks in advance 

Sian

I have a Khyam quick erect awning. I can put it up singlehanded as long as it is not blowing a gale. Have alook at their range and the videos on U-Tube to see if they would suit you. I guess any pump up awning should be quite easy to put up?

as ypu have such a manoevrable MH, i guess you'll be taking it out for trips from sites....?

if so, id look for a 'drive away' type which you can detach yourself from relatively easily....

There are various driveaway awnings, poles or air awnings, available but quite expensive. Have you considered a standalone tent that you could erect on your pitch. May be a cheaper option.

That is how I use my Khyam, cannot be bothered faffing about connecting it up even though I don't move off pitch very often.
