A full seasonal caravan awning is a heavy-duty awning designed to fit the entire length of your caravan and remain pitched for extended periods, often for weeks or months at a time. It creates a large, fully enclosed living space and is built using stronger, reinforced steel or inflatable frames and weather-resistant materials than standard touring awnings.
Unlike lightweight touring awnings, full seasonal models are designed for long-term use on seasonal pitches, offering durability, stability and comfort throughout the camping season and beyond.

Most seasonal caravan awnings are designed to stay up for the full camping season (spring to autumn).
Some high-end “all-season” or “residential” models can remain in place year-round if properly secured and maintained, however, for winter use, it is important to:

• Use storm straps and extra roof /leg supports
• Check fabric tension regularly for optimum roof pitch.
• Follow manufacturer guidelines and recommended accessories
• Keep awning well ventilated at all times to prevent build up of condensation.

Seasonal caravan awnings generally take longer to set up than touring or inflatable awnings due to their size and frame structure. However:

• Setup is typically done once for the season, after which only slight “tensioning” of the frame is required.
• The erected awning is a stronger, more stable structure, which if properly secured can remain in position for long periods of time.
• Many manufacturers include Inflatable Seasonal Awning models include improved frame systems for easier pitching.

For most caravanners, the added durability outweighs the longer setup time of a poled awning, compared to an inflatable one.
