We started caravanning 2 years ago and immediately bought a (used) awning. The seller was disposing of it on the basis of they are caravanners and using an awning is too much like camping. We have rapidly reached the same conclusion and are now happpy with
a Fiamma roll out canopy and no more. (Yes, there will be an awning for sale!) I can see all sorts of theoretical benefits of an awning especially if there are children involved however i just wondered how many other members have taken the view we now have
and dispensed with their awning? One of the key reasons we have decided not to bother is the erection time involved, life is too short to have it taken up with the hassle!
