Extend Your Outside Area to Get the Most Out of Your Camping

Extend Your Outside Area to Get the Most Out of Your Camping

Do you enjoy seeing everything our lovely country has to offer, but your caravan is starting to feel cramped? Caravan privacy screens and awnings are the most cost-effective solution to increase your available space without buying a new van. They come in a wide range of shapes and sizes, from simple porch canopies to entire room annexes — the possibilities are unlimited, guaranteeing that your requirements are satisfied.

However, how would expanding your outdoor space assist you in getting the most out of your campsite?

Provides Shelter From the Elements

Despite our best efforts to schedule our vacations around clear, sunny days, the weather has a mind of its own at times. When it's raining or windy outside, locked in a van can quickly get tedious, especially if you have children. When the weather isn't cooperating, you may shield yourself from the elements by installing campervan awning screens, thereby doubling your available space and allowing you greater freedom of movement.

Provides Additional Storage

Camping often entails a variety of items, especially if you'll be on the road for a long time – folding chairs and tables, bikes and other athletic equipment, camp mattresses, food, and so on. All of these items can take up precious space inside your van, so keeping them beneath caravan shade screens can help you save space. A privacy screen will help keep any would-be robbers away from your valuables.

Provides Additional Sleeping Space

An annexe can be the appropriate bedroom if you're travelling with a larger party or don't want to deal with the inconvenience of setting up beds every night. Put your camp beds together, add your sleeping bags and pillows, and you're ready to go! When the weather is hot and humid, sleeping outside can be a great way to escape the stuffiness of your caravan - adding a privacy screen will make you feel like you're alone.

As you can see, expanding your outdoor space can help you make the most of your campground and make caravanning even more fun. Your awning or RV privacy screen can give various benefits, from weather protection to additional storage or sleeping space. 

Whether you're replacing an old awning or installing one for the first time, the CaravanXpress team can assist you in finding the best fit for your caravan and ensure your needs are met.
