Hi all,

We need to replace our awning groundsheet. Is the one on the pennine website which appears from the picture to be a kampa the obvious choice or is there a better option?

Also, we’re on the lookout for a porch awning which doesn’t break the bank if anybody has any suggestions on that. Or would something like a Coleman event shelter be a better option than a porch awning?

We got ours on line. It’s a Kampa. Wasn’t too expensive if I remember rightly. Tried Go Outdoors,eBay? Hop you find one in your price range.

I’ve seen them alright. Are there different grades of Bolon?

Would you go for one the length of the awning? - I was thinking of getting one say a meter longer so there’s a meter outside the door.

Does yours fold away reasonably small?

Last year we had a stream thru out awning in France. Not a common occurrence thankfully and only lasted a day. How would it hold up in this situation?
Thanks.

Ours is the length of the awning, and wide enough to cover the awning skirt, if it were wider then the awning pegs would have to go through it and leave holes in the groundsheet.
The Bolon is close weave so easy to clean, last year we experienced a few wet miserable days in UK, mud and grass were tramped in by grandchildren and dogs, leaving the ground sheet looking mucky we hosed it down at home. I wouldnt Have concerns about it in a flash flood.
It’s a large groundsheet but not as bulky as others.
Worth googling bolon, it’s an Isabella product. A little more expensive, but we think worth the extra.

why would you want your groundsheet outside the door?

it rains, the water runs down the outside of the awning, onto the groundsheet and back into the awning.....
