Hi all,
please can i have your thoughts on these? I have decided not to have a full cover for the caravan, but am thinking of a roof cover. I have seen types that tie on and the Protec one that fits into the awning rails. Does anyone use any of these? Are there any pro's and cons please?

Hi Ferretlady, I'm interested in the Maypole one but not sure on sizing - my caravan internal length is 21' 1" and the sizes are 19-21 or 21-23. Hopefully someone can come back and help us!!!

P.S. we went to Fforest Fields for the first time in August for 2 1/2 weeks - what an awesome site ☺☺

Hi, we bought a roof cover, the one with the elastic cords, ( big mistake ) like you I didi't want a full cover, our van is sited and we left it on over winter, when we came to take it off we noticed the side of the van were the elastic cords had been , it looked like the wind had been twanging the elastic and left marks on one side of the van, 😱
So this year it's back to a full cover

The pro tec ones look nice that sit in awning rail.

But I have caravan store was my second thought, although I suppose would only use 3 to 4 months of the year.

Acampingwewillgo, we were there fof a week in August! Then a week beginning of Septembe ! Hoping to go in November too!

Glamcamping, i quite like the look of the Protec one, but unsure as someone told me the wind isnt good with roof covers. Where we live, thats one thing we get plenty of!

As well is two words!
