We will hopefully have a seasonal pitch next year and will be leaving the awning up so was looking for some ideas on what others have used for flooring in the awning as it's a hardstanding pitch and we don't like feeling all the stones through the normal breathable carpet we use when touring.

With it being in place all season we also need something that won't go damp and is easy to keep clean.

Thanks.

We use pallets overboarded with ply wood.  The an awning carpet and some rubber backed mats. 

may help

Vwstarbug - we are in a similar position to OP. Can I ask do you attach your elastics to the pallets or still peg into the ground, and where do you tuck the inside flaps (don't know what they are called!)

We use the interlocking mats as is Michael's link. They are easy to put down and take up, can be easily replaced if one is damaged, and are comparatively easy to store. We lay old rugs / carpet offcuts on the areas we walk on most, and it works pretty well.

Others on our site have all sorts of fancy wooden flooring, which is great during the season, but difficult to store when the awning is down.
