Most campervan awnings we sell are for VW owners, with models designed to fit Transporters such as the T4, T5, T6 and T6.1, as well as the VW California. These awnings generally suit vans with an attachment height of 180–210cm, which also includes the Ford Transit Custom, Renault Trafic and Mercedes Vito. Whether you want a compact porch, a larger drive away awning for family trips, or a simple canopy for summer, we’ve got plenty of choice. Our huge range covers inflatable and poled campervan awnings from well-known names like Vango, Outwell and Outdoor Revolution.
Campervan Awnings at WM Camping
Adding an awning is one of the easiest ways to make life in a campervan more comfortable. They give you extra space for cooking, dining, relaxing or storing kit, and many are designed as drive away awnings, so you can leave them pitched when you head out in the van. Alongside those, there are smaller tailgate shelters and lightweight sun canopies for when you just want a bit of extra cover. With plenty of sizes, layouts and pitching styles to choose from, you’ll find something that suits the way you travel.
Drive Away Campervan Awnings
The most popular type, drive away awnings attach to your van but can stand on their own when you drive away. That means you can keep your pitch set up while you go exploring. They come in all shapes and sizes, with both inflatable and poled versions available. See our Drive Away Awnings for the full range.
VW Campervan Awnings
VW Transporters are by far the most common vans people buy awnings for, and we carry a wide selection designed specifically for them. Whether you’ve got a T4, T5, T6, T6.1 or a California, these awnings are cut to fit the height and shape closely, giving a neat and secure connection. Options range from small porches for weekends to larger family-sized drive away awnings. Most are available as inflatable or poled models, so you can choose between quick pitching or a more traditional set-up.
Inflatable Campervan Awnings
Inflatable awnings have become a firm favourite with campervan owners. They use air beams instead of poles, which means they pitch quickly and are easy to take down. Ideal for touring and shorter breaks, you can see the latest designs in our Inflatable Campervan Awnings.
Poled Campervan Awnings
For those who prefer a classic approach, poled awnings remain a reliable and often more affordable choice. They use fibreglass or steel poles for structure and are available in a variety of layouts. Browse our Poled Campervan Awnings to see what’s available.
Tailgate Campervan Awnings
A tailgate awning attaches to the rear of your van, giving you a sheltered space that’s compact and easy to pitch. These are great for weekend getaways or day trips where you don’t need the footprint of a full awning. Explore our Tailgate Awnings collection for more.
