Quest's Screen Shield and Screen House range is one of the most innovative shelter systems in UK camping — a modular ecosystem of windbreaks and gazebo-style screen houses that connect together, pitch in under a minute, and genuinely work in the kind of Atlantic coastal conditions Cornwall throws at you. If you've spent a holiday at a Cornish campsite wrestling with a conventional windbreak that's collapsed in the wind, the Quest system is worth understanding.We stock the full Quest Screen Shield and Screen House range at Newquay Camping Shop. This guide covers every model, explains how the modular system works, and helps you choose the right setup for your camping style.How the Quest Modular System WorksThe genius of the Quest range is that everything connects. Screen Shield windbreak panels zip together end-to-end to extend your windbreak as long as you need. Screen Houses connect to Screen Shields via accessory zips. Multiple Screen Houses can be joined together. The result is a fully customisable shelter system that can be reconfigured to suit any pitch, any size group, and any conditions — without buying a completely different product each time.All Quest shelters use the same Premium Hub frame system with solid fibreglass poles and Quest Tec 210D performance fabric — a material that balances weatherproofing with quick-dry performance. All models are UV50+ rated on the roof.Quest Screen Shield Quad Vision WindbreakThe Screen Shield is the foundation of the Quest system — a four-panel windbreak that's been refined over more than a decade. At 500cm total length (four 125cm panels), it creates a proper windbreak rather than the flimsy single-panel alternatives that blow over at the first gust. One person can pitch it in under a minute.The panels rotate up to 180 degrees, so you can configure the Screen Shield into a straight windbreak, an L-shape, a U-shape, or even a fully enclosed four-sided enclosure — useful for containing pets or creating a completely sheltered cooking area. Dual-end zips allow connection to additional Screen Shields or a Screen House Pro.Available in two versions: Screen Shield Quad Vision (with windows) — £129.00 — superclear foil windows in all four panels for visibility and light while maintaining wind protection Screen Shield Quad Vision (without windows) — £129.00 — solid panels throughout for maximum wind and privacy protection Specs (both versions): Total size 500 x 120cm | Panel size 125 x 120cm | Weight 3.1kg | Pack size 105 x 15 x 15cm | Quest Tec 210D fabric | 12-month warrantyBest for: Families wanting a proper windbreak for any Cornish campsite pitch; those who want to create a sheltered cooking or seating area; anyone who wants a base windbreak that can be extended with additional panels or connected to a Screen House.Quest Screenhouse 4 Mini — The Compact OptionThe Quest Screenhouse 4 Mini is the smallest and most affordable full gazebo in the Quest range — a four-sided shelter that pitches from the bag without any assembly, by one person, in minutes. At 145 x 145cm it's compact enough to fit on almost any pitch, but fully enclosed with Quest No-Chill mesh sides, crystal-clear windows, external blinds, and a waterproof UV50+ roof.The No-Chill mesh is one of Quest's key innovations — it blocks wind chill while allowing air to circulate, keeping the interior warmer in wind and cooler in sun than a solid-walled shelter. Height adjusts between 140–160cm.Specs: Size 145 x 145cm | Height 140–160cm | Weight 10kg | Pack size 105 x 12 x 12cm | Quest Tec 210D fabric | UV50+ roof | 12-month warrantyPrice: £89.00Best for: Couples or small families who want a compact, fully enclosed shelter for eating, sitting out, or protecting young children from sun and wind at the beach or campsite.Quest ScreenHouse 4 PRO — The Family Four-Sided ShelterThe Quest ScreenHouse 4 PRO is the full-size four-sided version — at 240 x 240cm it provides a genuinely large enclosed space for a family. Like all Quest shelters, it pitches and packs in under a minute by one person, with no assembly required. The premium Hub frame uses solid fibreglass poles that are shorter, lighter, and more durable than the previous generation.Quest No-Chill mesh sides, double zippered front door, waterproof UV50+ roof, and height adjustable between 180–220cm. Connects to Screen Shields and other Screen Houses via accessory zips.Specs: Size 240 x 240cm | Height 180–220cm | Depth 480cm | Screen house weight 10.8kg | Total weight 12.8kg | Pack size 173 x 20 x 25cm | 12-month warrantyPrice: £299.99Best for: Families of 4–6 who want a proper enclosed shelter for the full holiday; caravanners who want a separate outdoor living area that connects to their awning or windbreak setup.Quest Screen House 6 Pro — The Six-Sided Large Group ShelterThe Quest Screen House 6 Pro is the largest and most impressive shelter in the range — a six-sided gazebo at 300 x 360cm that provides 360-degree views and airflow via full Quest No-Chill mesh panels on all sides. It pitches by one person in under 60 seconds by opening it flat and walking around pulling each side out — genuinely one of the fastest-pitching large shelters available.The six-sided design is wind-tested to Force 7 — a meaningful specification for Cornwall's Atlantic-facing campsites where a conventional gazebo would be long gone. Full zip-down sides with windows and external blinds give full weather protection when needed, while the mesh design provides maximum ventilation in good conditions. Connects to 2–5 additional Screen Houses and accessories via front accessory zip.Specs: Size 300 x 360cm | Height 180–220cm | Screen house weight 15kg | Total weight 18kg | Pack size 185 x 25 x 25cm | UV50+ roof | Wind tested to Force 7 | 12-month warrantyPrice: £379.99Best for: Larger families or groups who want maximum covered space; those camping in exposed locations who need a wind-tested shelter; caravanners who want to create a large communal outdoor area connecting multiple units.Quest Range Comparison Screen Shield (with/without window) Screenhouse 4 Mini ScreenHouse 4 PRO Screen House 6 Pro Type Windbreak (4 panels) 4-sided shelter 4-sided shelter 6-sided shelter Size 500 x 120cm 145 x 145cm 240 x 240cm 300 x 360cm Pitch time <1 minute Minutes <1 minute <60 seconds Wind tested Storm straps No No Force 7 No-Chill mesh No Yes Yes Yes Connects to system Yes (dual-end zips) No Yes Yes (2–5 units) Weight 3.1kg 10kg 12.8kg 18kg Price £129.00 £89.00 £299.99 £379.99 Quest Shelters in Cornwall — What to KnowCornwall's campsite conditions vary dramatically — from sheltered valley sites to fully exposed clifftop pitches above Fistral, Perranporth, and Sennen where Atlantic gusts can arrive with no warning. A few tips for using Quest shelters in Cornwall: Always guy out properly — all Quest shelters include storm straps and should be fully guyed on any exposed pitch regardless of current conditions The Screen House 6 Pro's Force 7 wind rating is a genuine advantage on Cornwall's clifftop and coastal sites — it's built for these conditions in a way a standard gazebo is not The Screen Shield's panel rotation lets you adjust your windbreak orientation as the wind direction shifts across the day — useful on sites where the sea breeze changes direction morning to afternoon Zipping multiple Screen Shields together creates a longer windbreak that can wrap around your entire pitch — particularly useful at larger Cornish sites like Hendra and Trevornick where pitches can be more exposed Frequently Asked QuestionsCan I connect a Quest Screen Shield to a Screen House?Yes — the Screen Shield's dual-end zips allow it to connect directly to the Quest ScreenHouse 4 PRO and Screen House 6 Pro via accessory zips. This lets you create an extended shelter system combining windbreak and enclosed screen house on the same pitch.What's the difference between the Screen Shield with and without windows?Both are identical in size, weight, price, and frame construction. The only difference is that the with windows version has superclear foil viewing windows in each panel, giving visibility through the windbreak while maintaining wind protection. The without windows version has solid panels throughout, giving slightly better privacy and a marginally more windproof barrier. Both are £129.00.Can the Quest Screen Shield form an enclosed space?Yes — because each panel rotates up to 180 degrees and the dual-end zips connect, the Screen Shield can be formed into a fully enclosed four-sided enclosure. This is particularly useful for containing pets or creating a completely sheltered cooking area.Is the Quest Screen House 6 Pro suitable for Cornwall's windy campsites?Yes — the Screen House 6 Pro is wind tested to Force 7, making it one of the most wind-resistant portable shelters available. When fully guyed out, it performs well on Cornwall's exposed clifftop and coastal campsites. The No-Chill mesh sides also reduce the wind load compared to solid-panel shelters.Can I buy Quest shelters at your Newquay showroom?Yes — we stock the Quest Screen Shield and Screen House range at our showroom at 4 Bamber House, Victoria, PL26 8LQ, open Monday to Friday.

The Campingaz 907 and 904 are the most popular refillable camping gas cylinders in the UK — used by caravanners, motorhome owners, and campsite regulars across the country. At Newquay Camping Shop we stock both cylinders in two options: new bottles for first-time buyers who don't already have a cylinder, and refills for existing customers exchanging an empty for a full one.We're one of the most reliable places to pick up Campingaz 907 and 904 cylinders in Cornwall — visit our showroom at 4 Bamber House, Victoria, PL26 8LQ, open Monday to Friday.Campingaz 907 Gas CylinderThe Campingaz 907 is the most popular cylinder in the range — a 2.75kg butane gas cylinder that provides a generous amount of gas for extended campsite use. It's the go-to choice for running a large camping stove, a Cadac BBQ, a caravan cooker, or a portable gas heater over a longer holiday or touring trip. 907 Refill (exchange) — £59.99 — bring your empty 907 cylinder to our showroom and swap it for a full one. You pay for the gas only. 907 New Bottle (full) — £130.00 — includes the cylinder and gas. The right option if you're buying your first Campingaz 907 or replacing a lost or damaged cylinder. Once you own a 907 cylinder, all future purchases are refills at £59.99 — making it significantly more economical over time than disposable cartridges for regular campers.Campingaz 904 Gas CylinderThe Campingaz 904 is a smaller 1.8kg butane cylinder — more compact and lighter than the 907, making it a better choice when portability matters or you're on a shorter trip and don't need as much gas. It uses the same Campingaz bayonet connector as the 907 and is compatible with the same appliances. 904 Refill (exchange) — £49.99 — bring your empty 904 cylinder and exchange for a full one. 904 New Bottle (full) — £109.00 — includes the cylinder and gas. The right option for first-time 904 buyers. The 904 is particularly popular with caravanners who want a smaller, lighter cylinder for shorter trips or as a backup when their main 907 runs out.New Bottle vs Refill — Which Do I Need? First time buying Campingaz? You need a new bottle — this includes the cylinder itself plus a full charge of gas. Choose the 907 new bottle (£130) for longer trips and larger appliances, or the 904 new bottle (£109) if you want a smaller, lighter option. Already own a Campingaz cylinder? You need a refill — bring your empty cylinder to our showroom and exchange it for a full one. 907 refill £59.99, 904 refill £49.99. Not sure what size cylinder you have? The 907 is the taller of the two — approximately 47cm tall and 22cm in diameter. The 904 is shorter at approximately 34cm tall and 17cm in diameter. Both have the same blue Campingaz livery and bayonet connector. What Appliances Use a Campingaz 907 or 904?Both cylinders use Campingaz's proprietary bayonet connector and require a Campingaz regulator to connect to your appliance. Compatible appliances include: Campingaz camping stoves and double burner hobs Cadac portable BBQs (via Cadac hose and regulator kit) Caravan and motorhome cookers with a Campingaz connection Portable gas heaters and patio heaters Campingaz lanterns (via appropriate adaptor) Truma gas systems (via Truma Campingaz adaptor) Click & Collect — Important InformationCampingaz 907 and 904 cylinders are available for click & collect only from our showroom at 4 Bamber House, Victoria, PL26 8LQ. Gas cylinders cannot be shipped by standard courier due to transport regulations — you'll need to collect in person. We're open Monday to Friday and are happy to help you with the exchange process in store.If you're ordering online, select your option (907 or 904, new bottle or refill) and choose click & collect at checkout.Campingaz Cold Weather PerformanceCampingaz 907 and 904 cylinders contain butane gas. Butane performs well in summer conditions but loses pressure and flow rate in cold temperatures — typically below around 5°C. For autumn and winter camping in Cornwall, or early morning cooking on a cold Bodmin Moor campsite, you may find butane cylinder performance drops off. In these conditions, Campingaz CV cartridges (which contain an isobutane/propane mix) perform better. See our full Campingaz gas guide for more detail on cartridge options.Frequently Asked QuestionsCan I exchange a Campingaz 907 at your Newquay store?Yes — we offer Campingaz cylinder exchange (refill) at our showroom at 4 Bamber House, Victoria, PL26 8LQ, open Monday to Friday. Bring your empty 907 or 904 cylinder and exchange it for a full one. 907 refill £59.99, 904 refill £49.99.Do I need to own a cylinder to get a refill?Yes — the refill price assumes you're exchanging an empty cylinder for a full one. If you don't already own a Campingaz cylinder, you need to purchase a new bottle first. We sell 907 new bottles at £130 and 904 new bottles at £109, both including gas.Can Campingaz 907 cylinders be delivered?No — gas cylinders cannot be shipped by standard courier due to transport regulations. Campingaz 907 and 904 cylinders are available for click & collect only from our Newquay showroom. Smaller Campingaz cartridges (C206, CV300, CV470) may be available for delivery — check individual product listings.What regulator do I need for a Campingaz 907?You need a Campingaz regulator — this connects the bayonet fitting on the 907 or 904 cylinder to the hose and your appliance. If you're connecting to a Cadac BBQ, you'll also need a Cadac hose kit. If you have a Truma caravan gas system, you'll need the Truma Campingaz adaptor.How long does a Campingaz 907 last?A full 907 cylinder contains 2.75kg of butane. Burn time depends heavily on your appliance and heat setting — a typical two-burner camping stove cooking for a family of four will get approximately 7–10 hours of cooking time from a full 907. A Cadac BBQ used at moderate heat will get similar results. For a week's family camping holiday with daily cooking, one 907 cylinder is usually sufficient.Buy Campingaz 907 & 904 at Newquay Camping ShopWe stock Campingaz 907 and 904 cylinders in both new bottle and refill options. Order online for click & collect from our showroom at 4 Bamber House, Victoria, PL26 8LQ, open Monday to Friday. We also stock the full range of Campingaz products including C206, CV300, and CV470 cartridges, regulators, and lantern mantles.

Duke of Edinburgh expeditions put genuine demands on kit — everything has to fit in a rucksack, carry comfortably over 15+ km a day, and cope with whatever the British weather throws at you. Whether you're heading out on Dartmoor, Bodmin Moor, Exmoor, or along the South West Coast Path, the right tent, sleeping bag, and mat can make the difference between a successful expedition and a miserable one. Here's our guide to the best kit for DofE, based on what we stock and recommend at our Newquay showroom. DofE Kit Rules — What to Know Before You Buy DofE assessors check kit at the start of expeditions. Key rules to be aware of: Each tent must be carried by the group — for Bronze, groups of 4–7 typically share one or two tents. Weight matters. No single-skin tents — double-wall construction is required. All tents below qualify. Sleeping bags must be appropriate for the conditions — a 3-season bag is the safe choice for UK expeditions from spring to autumn. Self-sufficient camping — no electric hookup, so rechargeable lights need to be fully charged before you set off. Best DofE Tent: Vango Soul 200 The Vango Soul 200 is our top recommendation for DofE expeditions. At 2.17 kg with a 52 × 15 cm pack size, it's one of the lightest double-wall tents we stock. The 2-pole tunnel design pitches in around 7 minutes via inner-first pitch, and the low-profile shape handles exposed moorland and coastal wind significantly better than a dome tent. The Protex 70D flysheet with 3,000mm hydrostatic head and factory-taped seams means it will keep you dry in a British summer downpour — which is useful on Dartmoor in particular. The Nightfall darkened bedroom is a bonus if you're camping in midsummer when it stays light until 10pm. For a group of two sharing a tent, the Soul 300 (2.86 kg) gives you more room for only £5 more and 0.69 kg of extra weight — well worth it if you're not counting every gram. Also available in Deep Blue and Peridot Green. Best DofE Sleeping Bag: Vango Microlite 100 The Vango Microlite 100 is a compact, lightweight sleeping bag designed for backpacking and expedition use — exactly the kind of bag that works well for DofE. Check the comfort rating before buying: for UK summer expeditions (June–August), a bag rated to around +5°C comfort is typically sufficient; for spring or autumn, look for 0°C or lower. If you want extra warmth without bulk, a sleeping bag liner adds around 5°C of warmth and is easy to wash after an expedition. Best DofE Sleeping Mat: Vango Aotrom The Vango Aotrom is a lightweight self-inflating mat that provides insulation from the ground as well as cushioning — important on uneven moorland ground. A sleeping mat is not optional for DofE: without insulation beneath you, you'll lose heat to the ground regardless of how warm your sleeping bag is. Backup Light: Outwell Carnelian DC 200 DofE kit lists typically require a torch or headtorch, but a compact rechargeable lantern is a useful addition for lighting the tent in the evening. The Outwell Carnelian DC 200 weighs just 200 g, charges via USB-C, and delivers 200 lumens of warm white light with a 10–100% dimmer. It doubles as a nightlight for the tent and has enough battery for a multi-night expedition when used at low brightness. Kit Checklist for DofE Camping ✓ Tent — double-wall, shared between group members ✓ Sleeping bag — rated for the conditions ✓ Sleeping mat — insulation from the ground is essential ✓ Rucksack — 65–75L for Silver/Gold; 45–55L may suffice for Bronze ✓ Waterproofs — jacket and overtrousers ✓ Torch or headtorch — required on kit list ✓ Stove and food — check your award group's rules ✓ First aid kit ✓ Map and compass — no GPS for navigation in most awards South West DofE Routes The South West has some of the best DofE terrain in England. Common expedition areas include: Dartmoor — the most popular Bronze and Silver terrain in the South West; exposed moorland where wind-resistant tents matter Bodmin Moor — closer to Cornwall; good Bronze terrain with varied ground Exmoor — popular for Silver and Gold expeditions with coastal sections South West Coast Path — used for some supervised Gold expeditions; exposed clifftop pitches where the Soul's tunnel design excels Visit Our Newquay Showroom We stock all the kit mentioned in this guide at our showroom at 4 Bamber House, Victoria, PL26 8LQ. If you're unsure which sleeping bag or mat is right for your expedition, come in and we'll help you choose.

A 3-way camping fridge is one of the most practical investments for caravanners and motorhomers — it runs on LPG gas, 12V DC, or 230V mains, so you always have a power source available whatever your setup. The Mestic MAC-40 is a well-specified 3-way fridge at a competitive price point. Here's everything you need to know. Mestic MAC-40 3-Way Camping Fridge — £319.00 Key Specifications Capacity: 42L (accommodates upright 2L bottles) Power: LPG gas (butane or propane) / 12V DC / 230V mains AC Cooling: Fridge-temperature performance when outside temp is up to 30°C Weight (empty): 17kg External dimensions: 52 x 48 x 47cm (W x D x H) Internal dimensions: 43.5 x 27.5 x 37.5cm (W x D x H) Colour: Black with grey lid Features 3-way power: Gas (butane or propane — Calor, Flo, CampinGaz compatible), 12V DC, 230V mains. Supplied with 12V and mains leads. Silent operation: Absorption cooling — no compressor, no noise. Ideal in a sleeping area. Low gas consumption Piezo push-button ignition — simple, reliable flame ignition on gas mode Manual gas flame control or electric thermostat depending on power source Magnetic sealed lid for a secure, insulated close Side carry handles Integrated spirit level — essential for absorption fridges, which must be level to operate correctly Robust construction for outdoor leisure use What is a 3-Way Fridge? A 3-way fridge uses absorption cooling technology — a heat-driven process with no moving parts and no compressor. This means: Completely silent — no compressor hum Runs on gas — ideal for off-grid camping without EHU hookup Flexible power — switch between gas, 12V, and mains as needed Must be level — absorption fridges don't work correctly if tilted significantly. The integrated spirit level helps with setup. The trade-off vs a compressor fridge is that absorption fridges are less efficient in hot weather — the MAC-40 achieves fridge-temperature performance when outside temperatures are up to 30°C. For UK summer camping, this is typically adequate. In very hot conditions or for freezer performance, a compressor cool box is the better choice. Mestic MAC-40 vs Compressor Cool Box — Which Should You Choose? Choose the MAC-40 if: You want gas operation for off-grid use, you need silent running, you have a traditional caravan with a built-in 3-way fridge space, or you want the flexibility of all three power sources. Choose a compressor cool box if: You want the best cooling performance in hot weather, you need freezer capability (-20°C), or you're primarily on EHU hookup or 12V with a good leisure battery setup. See our Cool Box Buying Guide for a full comparison of cool box types. Gas Compatibility The MAC-40 works with both butane and propane gas, and is compatible with popular UK gas brands including Calor, Flo, and CampinGaz. Propane is recommended for colder weather as it continues to flow at lower temperatures than butane.

The MAC-40 is compatible with both butane and propane LPG gas, including Calor, Flo, and CampinGaz bottles. For winter or cold-weather use, propane is recommended as it flows better at low temperatures. Does the Mestic MAC-40 need to be level? Yes — absorption fridges must be level (or close to level) to operate correctly. The MAC-40 includes an integrated spirit level to help with positioning. It should not be used while the vehicle is moving in gas mode. What temperature does the Mestic MAC-40 reach? It achieves standard fridge temperatures (around 5°C) when the ambient temperature is up to 30°C. In very hot weather, cooling performance will be reduced compared to a compressor fridge. Is the Mestic MAC-40 noisy? No — absorption cooling has no compressor or moving parts, making it completely silent. This makes it particularly well-suited to use in sleeping areas of a caravan or motorhome. Can I use the Mestic MAC-40 in my car? Yes — it runs on 12V DC via the car's power supply. Note that 12V thermoelectric or absorption fridges are less efficient than compressor cool boxes and will draw more power over time. For extended car use, a compressor cool box is typically more efficient. Can I buy the Mestic MAC-40 in Cornwall? Yes — Newquay Camping Shop stocks it at 4 Bamber House, Victoria, PL26 8LQ (Monday to Friday) and online with UK-wide delivery.

Fishing, serious outdoor use, maximum ice retention: Vango Glacier — rotomolded, up to 5 days. Choose 23L for solo, 47L for longer or group trips. Family camping, festivals, easy transport: Pinnacle Wheelie 45L — 66-can capacity, wheels, 100-hour retention, excellent value. Caravan or car use without ice: E-Pinnacle 30L (without wheels) or E-Pinnacle 40L (wheeled, with dividers). No ice needed, runs on 12V or 230V. Budget passive cool box for weekend use: Pinnacle Wheelie at £69.99 is one of the best-value wheeled cool boxes available. Vango Glacier vs Pinnacle — What's the Difference? The Glacier uses rotomolded construction — a premium manufacturing process that creates a thick, seamless, highly insulated shell. It's more durable and better insulated than standard injection-moulded cool boxes, and is the right choice when ice retention is the priority (fishing trips, hot weather, multi-day expeditions).

Frequently Asked Questions How long does a Vango Glacier cool box keep ice? The Vango Glacier 23L and 47L both keep ice for up to 5 days thanks to their rotomolded construction and thermal lid gasket. Performance will vary with ambient temperature and how often the lid is opened. Can I lock a Vango Glacier cool box? Yes — both Glacier models have 2 padlock points, so you can secure the lid. Useful for festivals, campsites, or fishing trips where you're leaving the cool box unattended. Does the Vango Pinnacle Wheelie have wheels? Yes — the Pinnacle Wheelie has sturdy grip wheels and a longer pull handle, plus 2 smaller carry handles for lifting. Ideal for rolling across campsites, car parks, and beach access paths. Can I use the Vango E-Pinnacle in my car? Yes — both E-Pinnacle models run on 12V DC via the car's cigarette lighter/DIN socket. A UK mains plug is also included for 230V use at home or on hook-up. Takes around 2 hours to reach maximum cooling. What is the difference between the Vango E-Pinnacle 30L and 40L? The 40L adds wheels and a telescopic handle for easier transport, and includes 2 removable dividers for separating food and drink. If you're using it in a caravan or want to move it easily, the 40L is the better choice. The 30L is lighter and more compact for car seat or boot use. Can I buy Vango cool boxes in Cornwall?

Passive vs Electric — Which Is Right for You? No electric hook-up? Go passive — the Wheelie 45L's 100-hour cooling is hard to beat. Pre-chill contents and use ice packs. EHU or 12V? The E-Pinnacle is far more convenient — no ice needed, consistent temperature, works while driving. Day trips or festivals? The Pinnacle 32L is light, affordable, and easy to carry. Family caravanning? The Pinnacle 57L (drain tap, 75 cans) or E-Pinnacle 40L (electric, wheeled, dividers) depending on hook-up. Top Tips for Getting the Best from a Passive Cool Box Pre-chill everything — never pack warm items into a passive cool box. Use gel ice packs — they last longer than loose ice and don't create water as they melt. Keep it in the shade — under your awning significantly extends cooling time. Open it as little as possible — every opening lets cold air escape. Fill it up — a full cool box holds temperature better than a half-empty one.

Frequently Asked Questions How long does the Vango Pinnacle keep things cold? The Pinnacle 32L and Wheelie 30L: up to 72 hours. The 57L: up to 80 hours. The Wheelie 45L: up to 100 hours (over 4 days). These assume pre-chilled contents and good ice pack usage. Can I use the E-Pinnacle in my car? Yes — both E-Pinnacle models include a 12V DC car adapter for use from your vehicle's cigarette lighter or 12V socket. Do the passive models need ice? Yes — the 32L, 57L, Wheelie 30L, and Wheelie 45L all need ice packs or loose ice. The E-Pinnacle electric models do not. What's the difference between the E-Pinnacle 30L and 40L? Both cool to 16°C below ambient. The 40L is larger (60 cans vs 46), heavier (7.6kg vs 5.4kg), has wheels and a telescopic handle, and includes two removable dividers. The 30L is more compact and suited to smaller vehicles. Which is best for a family? With EHU: the E-Pinnacle 40L — no ice, wheeled, with dividers. Without EHU: the Pinnacle 57L — 75-can capacity and a drain tap. Are these good for Cornwall camping? Yes — the HDPE build handles campsite use well. For exposed clifftop sites without EHU, the Wheelie 45L's 100-hour cooling is the best passive option. For serviced pitches, the E-Pinnacle removes the ice hassle entirely.

Getting your caravan or motorhome perfectly level is one of the most important things you can do on arrival at a pitch. It keeps your fridge running efficiently, stops doors swinging, and ensures a comfortable night's sleep. But with so many levelling products on the market, it can be hard to know where to start. This guide covers everything you need to know — from the different types of leveller to weight ratings, brand comparisons and our top picks. If you'd rather talk it through in person, our team is on hand at our Newquay, Cornwall showroom. Types of Caravan Leveller Ramp / Step Levellers The most popular choice. You drive one or both wheels up the ramp to raise the low side of your vehicle. Step levellers like the Milenco Triple 3 have multiple height positions built in, so you can pick the exact lift you need without stacking. Ramp levellers like the Fiamma Level System Magnum use a smooth wedge profile — quick to position and widely compatible. Stackable Block Levellers Interlocking plastic blocks that you build up to the height you need. More flexible on very uneven ground, and the wide base spreads the load well on soft or grassy pitches. Ideal if you camp on varied terrain. Automatic / Electric Levelling Systems Found on higher-spec motorhomes. Hydraulic or electric legs deploy at the touch of a button for fast, accurate levelling — but these are built-in systems rather than standalone accessories. Key Things to Check Before You Buy Maximum Axle Weight Rating Always check the weight rating of any leveller against your vehicle's Maximum Technically Permissible Laden Mass (MTPLM). The rating you need: Light caravan (up to 5t axle weight): Fiamma Level Pro or equivalent Mid-size caravan / small motorhome (up to 8t): Fiamma Level System Magnum Large motorhome (up to 12t): Fiamma Level System Jumbo Caravan or motorhome (up to 3t/6t total): Milenco Triple 3 Leveler (1,500kg per wheel) When in doubt, always size up. Maximum Lift Height Most pitches need 4–8cm of lift. On particularly uneven ground you may need up to 12cm. The Milenco Triple 3 offers three height settings up to 120mm — one of the tallest step levellers on the market. Ground Type On hard standing, any leveller works well. On soft or grassy ground, look for a model with a solid, wide base to prevent sinking. Stackable blocks and the Milenco Triple 3's solid-base design are both good choices for soft pitches. Twin-Axle Vehicles If you have a twin-axle caravan, you'll need to level both axles simultaneously. The Milenco Quattro Bridge spans both axles and works with the Triple 3 Leveler pair to lift them together evenly. Do You Need Wheel Chocks? Step levellers like the Milenco Triple 3 pocket the wheel at each height, so separate chocks aren't usually needed. With wedge ramps, you'll want to add a chock behind the wheel once you're in position — the Milenco MGI Level Chock is designed to pair with the MGI Wedge Level range. Don't Forget a Step If levelling raises your caravan's door height significantly, you'll need an entry step. The MGI Milenco Giant Single Step is a safe, stable option rated to 200kg with peg holes for grass pitches.

Frequently Asked Questions Do I need to level my caravan side-to-side and front-to-back? Side-to-side levelling is the priority — most absorption fridges require the vehicle to be within 3° of level to operate correctly. Front-to-back pitch also affects comfort and door swing; most caravans should sit slightly nose-down. Use your jockey wheel or nose jack for front-to-back adjustment after wheel levelling. How do I know how much lift I need? Use a spirit level or a levelling app on your phone before you drive onto the ramps. Most pitches require 4–8cm of lift. If you're on a particularly uneven site, the Milenco Triple 3 or Fiamma Jumbo both offer up to 12cm. Can I use levellers on soft or grassy pitches? Yes, but choose a leveller with a solid, wide base. The Milenco Triple 3's solid base is specifically designed to prevent sinking on soft or sandy ground. On very soft ground, place a board or rubber mat under the ramp to spread the load further. What's the difference between a ramp leveller and a step leveller? A ramp leveller uses a smooth wedge — you drive up until you reach the height you need and then chock the wheel. A step leveller has fixed height positions built in, so the wheel drops into a pocket at each step, holding the vehicle securely without needing a separate chock. Do I need wheel chocks as well as levelling ramps? With step levellers like the Milenco Triple 3, no — the wheel-pocketing design eliminates the need for separate chocks at each height. With wedge ramps, yes — always chock the wheel once levelled, before deploying corner steadies. Are caravan levellers universal? Most ramp and step levellers are compatible with any caravan or motorhome tyre — but always check the weight rating against your vehicle's MTPLM. If you have wide tyres, check the platform width of the leveller before buying.

Whether you're in a VW campervan, a high-top Transit, or a full-size motorhome, a drive-away awning transforms your vehicle into a proper base camp. But with so many options on the market, choosing the right one can feel overwhelming. This guide covers the best drive-away awnings for 2026 — from budget-friendly poled options to premium inflatable models — to help you find the perfect fit.What Is a Drive-Away Awning?A drive-away awning is a freestanding shelter that attaches to your campervan or motorhome and can be left standing when you drive away. Unlike traditional awnings, they connect via a tunnel or sleeve to your vehicle's awning rail or door surround, giving you extra living space without committing your vehicle to the pitch all day.Inflatable vs Poled Drive-Away AwningsInflatable (air beam) awnings pitch in minutes using a pump — no poles to assemble, no fiddly connectors. They're ideal for frequent campers and families who want a fast, stress-free setup. Brands like Vango, Kampa, and Outdoor Revolution lead the way here.Poled awnings are typically more affordable and very robust in high winds. They take a little longer to pitch but are a solid choice for longer stays where setup time matters less.Best Drive-Away Awnings 20261. Vango AirAway Hexaway II Pro — Best OverallVango's AirAway range is the benchmark for inflatable drive-away awnings. The Hexaway II Pro offers a generous living area, excellent weatherproofing with a 3000mm hydrostatic head, and Vango's proven AirBeam technology for a fast, reliable pitch.

Easy Camp Motorhome Awning — Best Budget PickEasy Camp's motorhome awning range delivers solid performance at an accessible price point. If you're new to drive-away awnings or want a reliable backup option, Easy Camp offers good weatherproofing and straightforward pitching at a price that won't break the bank. Shop Easy Camp Drive-Away Awnings →How to Choose the Right Drive-Away AwningVehicle height is the most important factor. Measure from the ground to your awning rail or door surround and match it to the awning's height range — most brands offer low (180–210cm), mid (210–240cm), and high (240–290cm) versions.Pitch frequency matters too. If you're moving pitches every day or two, an inflatable awning will save you significant time and effort. For longer static stays, a poled awning is perfectly practical.Living space varies significantly between models. Consider whether you need a separate sleeping area, a full groundsheet, or just a covered porch for wet gear and muddy boots.Before You Set Up: Level Your PitchAn unlevel vehicle puts uneven stress on the awning connection and makes life inside the van uncomfortable. Get this right before you pitch.

Frequently Asked Questions What is the difference between the Kampa Trip Air and Sprint Air? Both are compact inflatable awnings for solo tourers and couples. The Trip Air is the value option — fast 4-minute pitch, solid spec at £399. The Sprint Air is the premium version — factory taped seams, Diamond Clear windows, drop-down door with rain canopy, and better ventilation at £519. For regular tourers, the Sprint Air’s build quality justifies the premium. Is the Kampa Action Air or Cross Air better? The Action Air is the best-value spacious inflatable — 290 x 270cm at £319. The Cross Air is larger (300 x 300cm), has a higher hydrostatic head (6000mm vs standard), hot-air taped seams, and panoramic windows at £395. For weekend use, the Action Air is excellent value. For extended stays in changeable UK weather, the Cross Air’s extra weather protection is worth the difference. What is Kampa’s TC fabric? TC stands for Technical Canvas — a breathable cotton-polyester blend. TC awnings (Cross Air TC, Touring Air TC) breathe better than standard polyester, significantly reducing condensation inside the awning. The trade-off is slightly higher weight and price. TC is recommended for campers who stay in the awning for multiple nights or in warm, humid conditions. Which side should I choose for the Kampa Touring Air VW — LH or RH? LH (Left Hand) means the awning tunnel connects to the left side of your van as you stand behind it looking forward. RH (Right Hand) is the opposite. The correct choice depends on which side your sliding door is on and which side of the van you want the awning. If in doubt, measure from your van’s kador rail position.

A drive-away awning turns your campervan pitch into a proper outdoor living space — and lets you leave it standing while you explore for the day. At Newquay Camping Shop, we stock the UK’s best drive-away awning brands — Kampa, Outwell, Easy Camp, Outdoor Revolution, and Vango — online with UK-wide delivery and in our Cornwall showroom. This guide covers everything you need to choose the right awning for your vehicle, budget, and camping style. What is a Drive-Away Awning? A drive-away awning attaches to the side or rear of your campervan via a kador rail, bead channel, or over-vehicle strap. It creates a sheltered living area alongside or behind your van. The key feature is the drive-away capability — you can detach the connecting tunnel, leave the awning standing on the pitch, and drive off for the day. When you return, you reconnect the tunnel and you’re back in. Most models are freestanding when detached, so they hold their position while you’re away. Poled vs Inflatable Drive-Away Awnings Poled (Fibreglass) Lower cost entry point Lighter pack weight in some models Longer pitch time (10–20 mins) Easier to repair a broken pole on site Good for occasional users or those on a budget Inflatable (Air Frame) Faster pitch — typically 4–10 minutes with a pump No poles to insert or manage Slightly heavier pack weight More expensive upfront Ideal for solo pitching or frequent tourers Our verdict: If you’re pitching regularly or solo, inflatable is worth the premium. For occasional weekenders on a budget, a quality poled model like the Kampa Trip VW or Easy Camp Wimberly gives excellent value. Attachment Heights — Does It Fit Your Van? Most drive-away awnings fit vans with an attachment height (kador rail height) of 180–210cm. This covers the majority of campervans including VW T4, T5, T6, Mazda Bongo, Mercedes Vito, and most van conversions. SUV/tailgate models (like the Kampa Tailgater range) cover a wider range of 160–210cm for estate cars, MPVs, and SUVs. The Outwell range fits 175–200cm. Always check your vehicle’s kador height before ordering. Side-Mounted vs Rear (Tailgate) Awnings Side-mounted: Attaches along the side of the van via the roof rail. The living area sits beside the van. Best for campervans, VW conversions, and vans with a sliding side door. Most awnings in our range are side-mounted. Rear/tailgate: Attaches over the rear tailgate. Living area sits behind the van. Best for SUVs, MPVs, estate cars, and vans with a rear opening. The Kampa Tailgater range is designed specifically for this setup. Shop by Brand Kampa Drive-Away Awnings Kampa are the UK’s market-leading drive-away awning brand — their Trip, Action Air, Cross Air, Sprint Air, and Tailgater ranges cover every van type and budget from £195 to £519.

Frequently Asked Questions What attachment height do I need for a drive-away awning? Measure the height of your kador rail or roof channel from the ground. Most campervans (VW T4, T5, T6, Mazda Bongo, Mercedes Vito, and standard van conversions) fall in the 180–210cm range. Always verify before ordering. Can I use a drive-away awning with an SUV or estate car? Yes — the Kampa Tailgater range (both poled and inflatable) is specifically designed for SUVs, MPVs, and estate cars, with a 160–210cm connection height and rear tailgate attachment. How long does it take to pitch a drive-away awning? Poled awnings typically take 10–20 minutes with two people. Inflatable awnings with a pump take 4–10 minutes. The Kampa Trip Air advertises a 4-minute pitch time for solo use. Can I leave a drive-away awning standing when I drive away? Yes — that’s the defining feature. You detach the connecting tunnel, peg out the awning fully, and drive off. Most awnings in our range are freestanding when detached. Can I buy drive-away awnings in Cornwall?
