We often pop away for just a few days at a time. So bearing this in mind I'm thinking of purchasing a light weight awning approximately 2.5 meters wide min up to 3.5 meters wide max. I guess the size of a large porch, just looking for something thats quick to put up without the transportation bulk of conventional awnings. With the vast choice available I haven't a clue of what would make a sensible purchase, so I would like to pick a few brains. Has anyone got any recommendations? Thanks Dixie.

You will most likely get loads of suggestions as we all like different things. My suggestion is the Sunncamp Swift. Its light, cheap and VERY easy to put up even for one person. I have been very satisfied with mine.The only thing I have done with mine is put eyelets in the skirt to peg it down.

We use a Kampa Rally 390. Very good, one person can set it up, seems reasonably waterproof, £200.ish.
