We've got a Conway Cruiser with Awning and I'm just trying to think of a solution for where the toilet would be in the awning.  I was originally going to get a pop up shower/toilet tent from Decathalon to put in the awning but they don't seem to sell them anymore (or can't see them on there website).  So I need to come up with a new solution, any ideas? What do you have?

Hi

I have a Pennine Sterling with an awning and this is what we did.

I bought an additional awning pole, adjustable for length, and fitted a clamp at each end. I use this to go across the awning from the awning side pole and the next pole in, about 4 feet from the side of the van.

We then bought two coloured shower curtains from Argos, in a colour to suit the awning. I hang the shower curtains from the additional pole, and the inner pole to form a cubical, into which we put the chemical toilet.

The pole cost approx £10, and the shower curtains (they included fixings) were £5 each. Total cost £20.

We have used this several times and it is great.

Best Regards
David

That's a very small toilet you have  .

We put ours under one of the beds - normally the A-Frame one - during the day. It's next to the door in main cabin at night. None of us like the cabin door being unzipped during the night.

We used to do a shower curtain type of thing, too. Don't use it now as children are older. would use it if we went to a rally field, but friends only want to go to "proper" campsites.

What about one of those pop up changing tent from ebay? They're the same size as a toilet tent and easy to put up and take down? Just a thought

Yes we use a toilet tent that we bought from argos (£20) and it works great and easy to put up

We put our loo in the main part of the Combi Camp at night, then put it under the bed section behind the skirt during the day. It saves having to unzip the main door & go into a cold awning during the night
