Just got a 1993 freedom microlite caravan, can anyone recommend an awning. Porch awning would be fine. Van is a diddy 220cm to awning rail. Thanks

Same height as my little van!
I ended up buying the Outdoor Revolution Touring XLS awning as I wanted a roomy awning with a sleeping pod.
The Movelite square is another option.

Thank you both, food for thought Helen. Had looked at these, good to have confirmed they fit ok. Also, yes, interested in the awning you may sell plasticnut can it be erected easily by one person?

Hi. I am also looking for a small awning for my sun seeker, does the Movelite Square suit yours ok, would you recommend it? I have a full awning but its got steel poles and its a struggle for one to erect so I'm looking for something lighter and easier to erect.

Hi Chaddite
Am just using my movelite square for the first time this wet and windy week.brrrrr...firstly yes I did need assistance because of the breeze it would have taken off,but yes I would say do-able but easier with two. Second being second hand there were not enough pegs, I should have checked and taken my tent pegs, consequently it flooded inside last night because the long side skirts were not pegged down. But too summarise I would say perfect for the freedom van,did not leak , nice and secure ,and certainly a must for storage and dogs etc. Hope this scribe helps? Pat
