The Vango Cove III Air Low is one of the best-selling drive-away awnings in the UK — and for good reason. Built for campervans with an attachment height of 180–210 cm, it combines Vango's AirBeam® inflatable technology with serious weather protection, making it ideal for touring across Cornwall, Devon, and the wider South West.

New for 2026: the Cove III Air Low features TriSpan Tunnel Support — a pole that adds structure to the tunnel roof, improving tension against your vehicle and creating a more open, usable tunnel space.

If you'd like to see this awning in person before buying, we have it on display at our Newquay showroom — 4 Bamber House, Victoria, PL26 8LQ.

Why the Vango Cove III Air Low?

Quick pitch — no poles needed

Vango's AirBeam® framework inflates in around 10 minutes using the supplied ergonomic pump. No fiddly poles, no complicated setup — ideal if you're moving between pitches regularly or arriving late at a campsite.

Built for British coastal weather

With a 4,000 mm hydrostatic head, fully taped seams, and wind-tested construction (EN5912), the Cove III Air Low is engineered for the kind of exposed, changeable conditions you encounter on Cornwall and Devon coastal campsites. Pre-angled AirBeams provide effective bracing against wind gusts.

Drive-away freedom

The roll-away connecting tunnel detaches quickly, leaving the awning freestanding while you head out for the day. Just reconnect it when you return — no dismantling required.

Comfortable living space

Diamond Clear windows maximise natural light, while ventilation panels keep airflow moving and reduce condensation. The pre-attached front canopy provides a sheltered outdoor area for dining and relaxing, even in wet weather. A sewn-in groundsheet keeps out draughts and bugs.

Fits most campervans

Compatible with VW Transporter (T5/T6), Mercedes Sprinter, Ford Transit, Fiat Ducato, and most low-roof campervans with a kador rail or roof bar system. Comes pre-attached with 6mm kador, over-vehicle straps, roof bar tabs, and sleeve for pole and clamp kits.
