Whatever you like, good places for bikes at night, good place for 3 way fridge in summer for the wine, most people have a halogen heater. Ideal for the dog/s, general wellies/ boot - its endless you'll soon find out what suits you. We've had relatives sleep in ours - and that's not even a full awning!!!

Funnily enough when we go away with the Outlaws my MIL, they don't have an awning and if my FIL wants a decent sleep that is where she goes, she snores like a badly tuned diesel engine and errm cuts the cheese too often too. Even their dog refuses to share the awning with her!

I've got a folding camping wardrobe unit that has shelves. It's great for keeping wine, beer, groceries etc in and the electric cool box sits on the top. I also have a hang-away for wet stuff if it is damp outside and coats. We have our old greenhouse heater (elcetric) for the cool evenings as well.

My ds sleeps in ours with all the muddy boots, coats, a table and chairs, another table for all the bottles of pop to go on and boxes of alcohol and tinned food in other boxes, damp towels, the rubbish bin and everything else that i don't want cluttering up the 'van.  Would you believe that we have holidayed quite happily without an awning :)
