Due to the lengthy process of erecting the whole of our Cabanon t. tent with awning i was wondering if any one has used the cabin part alone? I thought this would be a feasible option until i considered the kitchen and where to put it if you haven't got the awning? Has any one used the cabin alone?

Our friends did with their Cabanon TT when we had to get an early start on our trip to France last year. The kitchen unit went under a tarp.

we had a transcamper and used just the cabin loads of times. Sometimes we would pu the sun awning up and put the cooker under their or we took a pop up gazebo and put the cooker under that.  It was a lot quicker than putting the awning up!!

I used our Raclet TT with just the cabin section last year - had the kitchen outside, with a tarp over at night.

On my previous Raclet which had a huge awning we often used the trailer without the awning when taking short stopovers or if we arrived late on camp. We also bought a Sunncamp Handy Utility tent which is fab. When we changed to the Solena we didn't need to worry the main unit is up in 5 mins and the awning is only small in comparison so quick and easy to erect.

We have used cabin only a  couple of times if we have an early start the next day with no problems. If you need a bit more room can you put a gazebo or day tent up in front of the cabin ?
