Kitting out your caravan is an exciting experience! It’s your chance to put your personal stamp on the holiday home you’ve worked so hard for. There are many things to consider, but your main priority should be ensuring that your caravan is equipped with everything you need to make each and every trip a great one.

There may be some regular items that you can make use of in your caravan, but others have been specially designed for caravan use and could be more suitable, so make sure you do your research and consider this when choosing your items.

Accessorise! - Winchester Caravans & MotorhomesIt’s great to have everything that you’ll need for a trip away ready and waiting in the caravan - it removes the stress of packing and the pressure of having to remember every little item every time. You’ll simply need to pack your clothes and off you go!

Kitting out your kitchen

There are many caravan-friendly kitchen items available, everything from melamine crockery, non-breakable cups and compact saucepans to cookware, Tupperware and every cooking utensil you can think of! Check out our new sea-themed set of Eddingtons plates and bowls now in stock!

Make a splash

Make the most of having a washroom onboard (no communal shower rooms for you!) by filling it with all the must-have items such as non-slip matting, clamp-on mirrors and towels.

Take a load off

There’s nothing better than sitting outside on a warm summer’s evening with a drink in hand. Caravanning holidays give you instant access to the outdoors so make the most of it! Invest in some decent outdoor furniture to make mealtimes and chill times that little bit more comfortable. We’ve just taken delivery of our 2020 Isabella range of furniture, so why not pop in for a look? We also have new 2020 Kampa chairs in stock now with more Isabella and Kampa accessories coming soon!

Hats off to the chef

A BBQ is a nice addition to the standard caravan kitchen, offering a variety of meal options, particularly in the warmer months when outdoor cooking is more of a pleasure. We stock a range of Cadac BBQs along with everything you could need to stoke the fire...

Get comfy

Your caravan is your home from home so why not inject a bit of your personality with a few cushions and throws to make it your own? Snuggle up on cooler evenings and enjoy your surroundings.

Spread out

An awning is one of the best investments you can make - after buying the caravan of course! A full awning can double your footprint and give you bags of extra living and storage space. They’re great for more spacious indoor dining if the weather’s bad and for giving the kids a bit of room to play in.

A good night's sleep

First you’ll need to decide if you want to go for sheets and duvets or sleeping bags? Once that decision is made you can browse our range of bedding to find just the right fit for you. Ensuring a good night’s sleep is vital!

Safe and secure

We supply a great range of security devices including Milenco steering wheel locks, wheel locks, hitch locks and door locks. These are all high quality products from very reputable brands, so you can rest easy on your travels.

Gadgets galore

For all you techies - yes there are gadgets designed just for caravan use, so go on - treat yourself! From TVs to kettles and toasters there are plenty of low wattage appliances that you can purchase to keep your power usage down. We also have a great selection of handheld torches and lights which are very powerful and useful for getting around the campsite at night.

Caravan life

There are hundreds of items that you could buy to make your caravanning experience that little bit easier. After some investigation, you’ll soon realise which ones are the most important to you! We stock everything from electrical hook up cables, leisure batteries, water carriers  and cool boxes to caravan steps, windbreaks and portable clothes airers.

Our on-site accessory shop stocks over 5,000 products - including awnings - and our knowledgeable and friendly sales team are on hand to assist you with any enquiry you may have. Pop in and take a look!
