    Dormobile cooker

    Hi Just asked on another site if we could use our gas cobb in the van if it rained. I would never use the charcoal one obvs in an enclosed space. Had replies saying its very different to cooking in a van as you have flues to extract the fumes. This has got me thinking, how does the carbon...

    Vango sapera, help needed please.

    Hello. Bought a sapera, really pleased with it but tonight have come back to the awning half down. We rolled the porch bit up and pegged down each side with the straps. Are we missing something? Was surprised as the awning itself has been quite stable in these high winds and rain. Nervous about...

    Dormobile roof and winds

    Hi Looking forward to our first family holiday camping in Marjorie. But, I was wondering, the site we are going to is coastal on the north coast of cornwall.

    Vango sapera

    Right! Tempted by one of these but the difference in price between the std and tall is ridiculous! Std is from 205-235 cms and the tall is from 230 upwards. Has anyone used a tall on their bay? Or am I just going to have to shell out on the std? Don't want it to look daft and not work...

    Dormobile - issues?

    Hi Roof canvas has come today, not what I was expecting! It's like a plastic shiny wax oil table cloth! It's quality is disputable too. Lots of black marks and lots of the red stripes have been scratched and tbh not what I expect to pay best part of £400 for. Has anyone done their roofs in any...

    Hi Can any of you lovely Dormobile owners post pics of your front window curtains if you have the press stud fastening? Just want to check how they go before ordering material and new studs etc. I'm pretty sure the rest are all on the tracks that came with the van. Thank you
