Kampa Traverse Mid Air vs Traverse Mid Poled 2026 — Which Should You Choose?
31.08.26
The Kampa Traverse Mid is one of the most popular mid-profile drive-away awnings in our range — available in both poled and inflatable (Air) formats for 2026. Both connect to the same mid-profile kador rail height (210–255cm), share the same Kampa build quality, and live at similar price points. So which one should you choose?
At Newquay Camping Shop, we stock both the Traverse Mid Poled and Traverse Mid Air. This guide compares them directly so you can make the right call for your van and camping style.

Pitch time: 20–40 minutes
Best for: Extended stays on site, buyers on a mid-range budget, those who prioritise lower price over fast pitch

Kampa Traverse Mid Air 2026
The inflatable Traverse Mid uses Kampa’s AirFrame technology — single-point inflation, fast pitch, and no poles to assemble. Updated for 2026 with improved spec and fabric. The standout choice for campervan owners who move sites regularly or set up solo.
Profile: Mid (210–255cm)
Type: Inflatable (AirFrame)
Pitch time: 5–10 minutes
Best for: Frequent movers, solo tourers, buyers who prioritise fast pitch over lowest price
Pros: Fast pitch, significantly easier solo setup, no poles to manage, 2026 spec
Cons: Higher price than Traverse Mid Poled, puncture repair requires a patch kit

Which Should You Choose?
Choose the Traverse Mid Poled if:
You’re on a mid-range budget and want to keep costs down
You stay on the same pitch for extended periods (pitch time matters less)
You camp with a partner who can help with setup
You want the simplest possible field repair option
Choose the Traverse Mid Air if:
You move between sites regularly and pitch frequently
You set up solo
You want to be set up and sitting outside in under 10 minutes
The price difference is manageable for the convenience gain
What About the Low-Profile Traverse?
If your van has a kador rail below 210cm (VW T5/T6, Ford Transit Custom, Vauxhall Vivaro, Renault Trafic), you need the low-profile Traverse rather than the mid. See our sizing guide to confirm your profile, and our low-profile guide for Traverse Low options.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Kampa Traverse Mid Air worth the extra cost over the Poled?
If you move sites regularly or set up solo, yes — the time and effort saving on every pitch is significant. If you tend to stay put for several nights at a time and camp with someone, the poled version is hard to fault at its price point.
Are the Traverse Mid Air and Poled the same size?
Both are mid-profile (210–255cm connection height). Footprint dimensions may vary slightly between models — check the individual product pages for exact measurements.
Can I use a 12V electric pump with the Traverse Mid Air?
Yes — a 12V electric pump is a recommended upgrade for any inflatable awning. Check the Traverse Mid Air’s maximum PSI before purchasing a pump. See our accessories guide for pump advice.
Which vans does the Kampa Traverse Mid fit?
The Traverse Mid fits any campervan with a kador rail height of 210–255cm — including the Mercedes Sprinter (standard/medium roof), VW Crafter (standard/medium roof), Fiat Ducato, Peugeot Boxer, Citroën Relay, and full-size Ford Transit (standard/medium roof).

Cool Box Buying Guide — How to Choose the Right Cool Box for Camping & Caravanning
30.08.26
Choosing the right cool box can make or break a camping or caravanning trip — get it wrong and you're eating warm food by day two. Get it right and you'll have cold drinks, fresh ingredients, and one less thing to worry about from Cornwall to the Cairngorms.
At Newquay Camping Shop, we stock the UK's best cool box brands — Igloo, Vango, Dometic, Outwell, and Mestic — at our showroom in Cornwall and online with UK-wide delivery. This guide covers everything you need to make the right choice.
The Three Types of Cool Box
1. Passive Cool Boxes
Passive cool boxes use insulation alone — no power required. You add ice packs or loose ice, and the insulation keeps things cold for anywhere from 24 hours to 5+ days depending on the model. They're simple, robust, and work anywhere. The best passive models (like the Igloo MaxCold and Vango Pinnacle Wheelie 45L) will keep contents cold for 4–5 days if pre-chilled and used correctly.
Best for: Sites without electric hook-up, day trips, festivals, beach days, and anyone who wants a no-fuss solution.
2. Thermoelectric Cool Boxes
Thermoelectric cool boxes run off mains (230V) or a 12V car socket and cool to a fixed temperature below ambient — typically 15–20°C below. They work well in mild UK weather but struggle to get contents genuinely cold on very warm days. No ice needed, but they need a power source to work at all.
Best for: Campervans and caravans with a 12V supply, short trips, or as a top-up cool box alongside a passive model.
3. Compressor Cool Boxes (Portable Fridges)
Compressor cool boxes are essentially portable fridges and freezers. They use a compressor (same technology as your fridge at home) and can cool to as low as -20°C regardless of ambient temperature. Run on mains or 12/24V DC, with battery protection to prevent draining your leisure battery. Significantly more expensive than passive or thermoelectric models, but the performance difference is transformative for longer trips.
Best for: Caravanners and motorhome tourers with EHU or good 12V setup, van lifers, and anyone doing a week or more away who wants proper fridge performance.
4. 3-Way Absorption Fridges
3-way absorption fridges run on LPG gas, 12V DC, or 230V mains — making them the most flexible option for off-grid caravanning. They use silent absorption cooling with no compressor or moving parts. They must be level to work correctly, and cooling performance reduces in hot weather (above ~30°C ambient). The Mestic MAC-40 is a well-specified 42L 3-way fridge compatible with Calor, Flo, and CampinGaz gas.
Best for: Traditional caravanning with a gas supply, off-grid touring where silent operation is important.
Key Things to Consider
How Long Are Your Trips?
Day trips: Any compact passive cool box will do. Prioritise size and weight.
Weekend (2–3 nights): A quality passive cool box with 72-hour+ rating handles this comfortably with good ice packs.
Week+: Either invest in the best passive model you can (MaxCold 5-day rating) or go compressor for consistent performance without the ice faff.
Do You Have Electric Hook-Up?
If you're always on serviced pitches or have a well-set-up leisure battery system, a compressor cool box is worth the investment — you'll never buy ice again. If you regularly camp off-grid, a top-quality passive cool box is the more practical choice. For traditional gas caravanning, a 3-way absorption fridge gives you maximum flexibility.
How Many People Are You Feeding?
Solo or couple: 16–30L is plenty for a weekend.
Family of 4: 45–60L for a weekend, 60L+ for a week.
Large group or long trip: 90–100L+ passive, or a 55–60L compressor (which fits more efficiently with no ice taking up space).
Do You Need Wheels?
If you're moving your cool box frequently — car boot to pitch, pitch to beach — wheels and a telescopic handle are worth it. All the rolling models (Igloo Laguna Roller, Vango Pinnacle Wheelie, Igloo MaxCold 90 QT) handle rough terrain reasonably well.
Cornwall-Specific Considerations
Cornwall's campsite pitches vary enormously — from flat, well-drained grass to sloped, exposed clifftop fields with no hook-up within miles. Here's what that means for your cool box choice:
No hook-up sites (common on Cornwall's best coastal sites): go for the best passive cool box you can afford. The Igloo MaxCold 54 QT or Vango Pinnacle Wheelie 45L are our top picks here.
Serviced pitches (holiday parks, caravan club sites): a compressor model like the Dometic CFX2 or Igloo ICF range removes all the ice hassle and performs in Cornwall's warmer summer temperatures.
Beach days from the pitch: consider a wheeled model or a compact secondary cool box for the beach — the Igloo Laguna 16 Roller or Vango Pinnacle 32L are ideal.

Cool Box Tips: Getting the Most from Your Cool Box
Pre-chill everything before you pack. A passive cool box is not a fridge — it maintains temperature, it doesn't create it. Pack cold food into a cold cool box.
Use gel ice packs, not loose ice. Gel packs last longer, don't create water as they melt, and take up less space. Put them on top — cold air falls.
Keep it in the shade. Shading your cool box under your awning or draping it with a blanket can add hours to its cooling time.
Don't open it constantly. Every time you lift the lid, cold air escapes. Know what you want before you open it.
Fill it up. A full cool box holds temperature better than a half-empty one. Fill gaps with extra ice packs or even scrunched newspaper.
Drain and dry between trips. Mould and odours develop fast in a damp cool box. Rinse, drain, and leave the lid ajar between uses.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the best cool box for camping in the UK?
For camping without electric hook-up, the Igloo MaxCold 54 QT (£104) is hard to beat — 5-day ice retention, drain plug, and rugged build. For families on a budget, the Igloo Laguna 48 (£59.99) offers excellent value with 3-day cooling and a 45L capacity.
What is the best cool box for caravanning?
If you have electric hook-up, a compressor cool box like the Igloo ICF 40 (£399) or Dometic CFX2 45L is the best choice — no ice needed and true fridge temperatures. Without hook-up, the MaxCold 54 QT or Vango Pinnacle Wheelie 45L are the best passive options. For gas caravanning, the Mestic MAC-40 3-way absorption fridge runs on gas, 12V, or mains.
How long does a cool box keep things cold?
It depends on the model, how it's packed, and the ambient temperature. Basic cool boxes manage 24–48 hours. Good mid-range models (Igloo Laguna, Vango Pinnacle) achieve 72–80 hours. Premium passive models (Igloo MaxCold, Vango Glacier) achieve 5 days under test conditions. Compressor cool boxes maintain temperature indefinitely as long as they're powered.
Do I need ice in a cool box?
Passive cool boxes need ice packs or loose ice to maintain temperature — they don't generate cold, they retain it. Thermoelectric, compressor, and 3-way absorption cool boxes work from a power source and don't need ice.
What size cool box do I need?
As a rough guide: 16–30L for 1–2 people on a weekend; 40–60L for a family of 4 on a weekend; 60L+ for larger groups or trips of a week or more. If using a compressor model, you can go slightly smaller as there's no ice taking up space.
What is Cool Riser Technology?
Cool Riser Technology is an Igloo innovation — an elevated base that lifts the cool box off hot surfaces like sun-baked car boots or tarmac, reducing heat transfer from below and extending ice retention. It's featured across the Igloo Laguna, Profile II, MaxCold, and Marine Ultra ranges.
Are compressor cool boxes worth the money?
For regular caravanners or motorhomers with a 12V setup, yes — the running costs are low (compressors are efficient), you never buy ice again, and the performance is genuinely transformative on longer trips. For occasional campers or those without hook-up, a quality passive cool box is more practical and far cheaper upfront.
Which cool box brands do you stock in Cornwall?
At Newquay Camping Shop, we stock Igloo, Vango, Dometic, Outwell, and Mestic cool boxes — both online with UK-wide delivery and in our showroom at 4 Bamber House, Victoria, PL26 8LQ.
Can I buy a cool box in Newquay?
Yes — Newquay Camping Shop stocks a wide range of cool boxes in store at 4 Bamber House, Victoria, PL26 8LQ (open Monday to Friday). We carry Igloo, Vango, Dometic, Outwell, and Mestic models.
What cool box is best for Cornwall camping?
Cornwall's best campsites are often off-grid and exposed to Atlantic weather. For sites without EHU, we recommend the Igloo MaxCold 54 QT for its 5-day cooling, or the Vango Pinnacle Wheelie 45L (100-hour cooling) if you need wheels. For holiday parks with EHU, a compressor model like the Igloo ICF 40 removes the ice hassle entirely.

Which Fiamma Leveller Should You Choose?
Compact caravan on level sites? The Level Pro is light, affordable, and easy to store.
Mid-size caravan or small motorhome on mixed ground? The Magnum gives you more grip and capacity without the bulk.
Large or heavy motorhome? The Jumbo is the only option worth considering — the wider footprint and 12-tonne rating give you the stability you need.
If you're unsure of your axle weight, check your vehicle's VIN plate or owner's manual. When in doubt, size up — a Magnum used on a lighter van is fine; a Level Pro under a heavy motorhome is not.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between the Fiamma Level System Magnum and Jumbo?
The main differences are size, weight and capacity. The Magnum (50 x 20 x 9 cm, 8-tonne max axle weight) suits mid-size caravans and smaller motorhomes. The Jumbo (60 x 26 x 12 cm, 12-tonne max axle weight) is designed for larger, heavier motorhomes where a bigger platform and higher weight rating are essential.
Can I stack Fiamma levelling ramps for more height?
Yes — all three Fiamma levellers in this range feature an interlocking or self-locking overlap system that lets you stack both ramps for additional height on steeply sloping pitches.
Are Fiamma levellers suitable for soft or grassy ground?
The ridged surface on the Magnum and Jumbo models provides good tyre grip and helps spread the load. On very soft ground, a board or groundsheet under the ramps can help prevent sinking. The Jumbo's wider footprint makes it the best choice for soft pitches.
How do I know which Fiamma leveller is right for my caravan or motorhome?
Check the maximum axle weight (MAW) on your vehicle's VIN plate. Choose a leveller rated above your MAW — the Level Pro covers up to 5 tonnes, the Magnum up to 8 tonnes, and the Jumbo up to 12 tonnes. If you're between sizes, always go for the higher-rated option.
Do Fiamma levellers come in a bag?
The Level Pro is compatible with the optional Fiamma Chock Level Bag S for storage. The Magnum and Jumbo are supplied as a pair.
Can I use Fiamma levellers on hard standing pitches?
Yes — Fiamma levellers work equally well on hard standing and grass pitches. The anti-slip and ridged surfaces prevent the ramps from sliding on both surface types.

Quest Screenhouse Review & Buying Guide — Which One is Right for You?
13.08.26
If you've ever struggled with a traditional gazebo — fiddling with poles, fighting with connectors, or needing three people just to get it standing — the Quest Screenhouse will change your life. It's genuinely the quickest, easiest shelter on the market, and at Newquay Camping Shop — Cornwall's dedicated camping specialists — we stock the full range. Here's everything you need to know.
What Makes the Quest Screenhouse Different?
Most gazebos are a faff. The Quest Screenhouse is the opposite. Take it out of the bag, place it on the ground, open it out, and pop the sides and roof into place. That's it. One person. Under a minute. No assembly, no tensioning, no inflating — just instant shelter.
The secret is Quest's premium hub system — a latest-generation frame refined over years of real-world use. It's smaller, lighter, and more durable than ever, while remaining incredibly simple to operate. Quest use their own demo units at shows day after day, year after year — the equivalent of 10–15 years of wear per year — and they keep going.
All three models share the same core DNA:
Quest Tec 210 performance fabric sides with crystal clear windows and external blinds
Quest No-Chill mesh panels — warmer in the wind, cooler in the sun, with full insect protection
2,000mm hydrostatic head waterproof roof with UPF 50+ UV coating
Extra pegging points and storm straps on every side
Tested to wind force 7 in controlled conditions
Whether you're camping in Cornwall, touring the South West, or heading further afield, a Quest Screenhouse gives you a reliable outdoor living space wherever you pitch up.
Quest Screenhouse 4 Mini — £89.00
The most compact option in the range. The Screenhouse 4 Mini is a 145 x 145 cm four-sided shelter — perfect for a couple, a small family, or anyone who wants a lightweight, packable option for the garden or campsite. At just 10 kg and packing down to 105 x 12 x 12 cm, it's genuinely portable — ideal for Cornwall's coastal campsites where pitches can be compact.
Use the mesh sides only in summer to keep insects out while enjoying the breeze and the view. Zip down the full Quest Tec 210 sides in cooler weather or evenings for privacy and wind protection. Height adjusts from 140–160 cm.
Best for: Solo campers, couples, or anyone who wants the Screenhouse experience in the most compact, affordable package.
Quest ScreenHouse 4 PRO — £299.99
The PRO steps things up significantly. Same 240 x 240 cm footprint, but with a taller height range (180–220 cm) and the addition of the full accessory zip — allowing you to attach optional extras like a canopy, vehicle connector, or Screen Shield windbreak.
The 4 PRO features full sewn-in Quest Tec 210 sides with crystal clear windows and external blinds, giving you complete control over your environment. Roll the sides down for total privacy. Open the external blinds to let light and views in. Roll the sides up entirely to reveal the No-Chill mesh. The options are genuinely impressive for a shelter that one person can pitch in under a minute.
Rated 5 stars by customers. Pack size: 173 x 20 x 25 cm. Weight: 10.8 kg (12.8 kg total).
Best for: Families and regular campers who want the full Screenhouse experience with accessory compatibility and maximum versatility.
Quest Screen House 6 Pro Shelter — £379.99
The flagship. The Screen House 6 Pro is a six-sided shelter measuring 300 x 360 cm — a genuinely spacious outdoor room that still pitches in under 60 seconds, solo. The six-sided design gives you a larger footprint and a more enclosed feel, while the two double doors mean you can have two separate entrances — or zip two (or more) Screen House 6s together to create a Screenhouse village.
Like the 4 PRO, it features the full accessory zip on both doorways — so you can run two accessories simultaneously. The No-Chill mesh provides 360-degree views and full airflow, while the zip-down Quest Tec 210 sides with windowed blinds give you complete weather protection when needed.
At 15 kg (18 kg total) and packing to 185 x 25 x 25 cm, it's the biggest of the three — but still very manageable for a single person.
Best for: Families, groups, or anyone who wants a serious outdoor living space that still pitches in under a minute.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can one person really pitch a Quest Screenhouse in under a minute?
Yes — and it's not marketing fluff. The hub system means there's nothing to assemble. Take it out of the bag, open it out, pop the sides into place, and lift the roof. That's genuinely it.
Are the Quest Screenhouse sides waterproof?
The roof is waterproof (2,000mm HH) and taped. The mesh sides are not waterproof — they're designed for airflow and insect protection. The zip-down Quest Tec 210 fabric sides provide additional weather protection when needed.
Can I use a Quest Screenhouse as a cooking shelter?
The mesh sides allow full airflow, making it safe to cook under — but naked flames and heat sources must always be kept away from the sides.
What accessories are available for the Quest Screenhouse?
The 4 PRO and 6 Pro both feature the accessory zip, compatible with a canopy, vehicle connector, and Screen Shield windbreak. The 6 Pro's two accessory zips allow you to use more than one accessory simultaneously.
Where can I buy a Quest Screenhouse?
All three models are available at Newquay Camping Shop — Cornwall's dedicated camping specialists. Shop online or visit us at 4 Bamber House, Victoria, PL26 8LQ to see demo units in person.
