Hi, just purchased our first caravan. We have an awning but unfortunately the curtains are missing. Does anyone have any photos of this van with the original awning attached or have size details for the curtains so I can make some myself? Also, Im interested in a blow up awning but I don't know which ones will fit. Does anyone have any advice? Thanks in advance

Never heard of this caravan. When i saw the post, i thought it was for an air freshener. Surely, the curtains would be easy enough to measure up once the awning was pitched? Use a piece of string around the awning rail to measure this. Err on the long side if its a bit close to whats available, to avoid a gap on sloping pitches.

It's a pop top and the awning rail is at the lower level so probably a foot or so lower than a modern caravan. Also the door is very close to the awning rail level.

Should still be able to measure it with string.

Hi,
Wehave a Fleurette Tamaris 37 TST. We use a Kamp Pop Air Pro 290 awning, these awnings are designed to fit Eribas but work with Trigano Slivers and, obviously, also work with ours. There is a range of sizes, if you measure the top part of the rail of your van you should be able to work out the best size for you. They attach like a porch awning (top only in awning rail) and I think we could have got a biggger one, but saw a great deal on this one.
I have a "Auvents Clairval L'espace en plus" awning that came with the van but we don't use it as it quite big and bulky. It is in storage but if you're happy to wait I can measure the curtains next time I'm up there, but it won't be very soon.
Thanks
Julian

Hi Julian,
Thanks so much for the detailed information. I will measure the awning rail when I get home. The awning we have is very bulky. Thanks again
