Morning all

Had our first camping trip at the weekend and loved it, we need some cover outside to cook/sit if the weather is not great, what advise can anyone give me as to the best way to go about this

Thanks in advance 👍

A gazebo is fine for the sunny fine weather but it's a porch awning for us when its it's wet and windy,It's so easy to take the sides out if you want to for the warm sunny spell.

Some places have a downer on gazebos due to their predeliction for setting off across the site once it gets bit windy. As suggested, a porch awning is the way forward on a number of levels.

look at a coleman event shelter. Very strong and stable even in wind. I find a lot of sites that ban gazebos allow mine

Something like this might be more versatile than a tent porch and is much safer and more solid than a gazebo.
