Which caravan accessories are must have? There's not need to spend thousands on caravan accessories. Keeping it simple means you have less stuff to take with you, remember it all weighs something and you've got to find a place to store everything if not kept in your caravan.
I've grouped all the caravan accessories in our Amazon Shop front, which can be found here :
www.amazon.co.uk/shop/caravan...
Just about every caravan accessory you’ll need to start caravanning. No luxury items, just the basics to make sure your first caravan adventure goes well.
I’ll do a follow up with some of the caravan accessories you might want to keep in your caravan, rather than bring them with you from your house. As well as some just nice to have caravan accessories to make life more enjoyable and a little bit easier!

We waited 6 months for our compass casita 454. We are away for our first trip at Sutton on sea. We’ve watched a lot of your blogs which we’ve found very instructional thanks.

You could use a spirit level app on your smartphone. You can also check your nose weight with bathroom scales and a piece of timber under the hitch

Thanks for watching. I’ve seen someone use a bowl of water as a spirit level. I guess you could make a cup of tea and check the level from throat. Kill 2 birds with one stone 🤷‍♂️😁

We are still waiting to collect our new van. I too have had many different cheap mirrors, all false economy. Just buy a milenco set great quality and will last as long as all the cheap ones put together. We always prefer the convex type. One thing I'd add to the list is a bottle blue toilet fluid. Pretty much everything else you can collect over time. Problem we have is that we have too much!

Getting a torque wrench and checking your wheel nuts before each trip is absolutely essential. I was the same as you and didn't own one but since a wheel fell off I do now! Fortunately I was going very slowly as I approached a junction but it still cost nearly £10,000 to repair as the wheel punched a hole through the caravan floor! God bless good insurance that's what I say!

This is really useful for me. I’ve just bought my first caravan and haven’t a clue what I need.

Don't forget the toaster either! Other essential accessories are a torch and a spanner for the gas bottle if you don't have handled pig tail.

Thanks for watching. I know what you mean. TBH it was designed as a slow burning, so that beginners would find it months from now and should be relevant to them. As if I'd vlog me washing the caravan, you've gone crazy...However, I have a vlog of watching me watch paint dry.... 😇😂

I often wonder if there is a caravan vent cover cartel in operation. £45 for two pieces of plastic to cover the vents on my swift basecamp! How does everyone else cover their fridge vent when washing the outside of their caravan?

Yeah i prob should have had that advice about not buying everything at once!! ha ha but way i see, im only going to buy it at some point an i had budgeted for it so i dont mind.

Thanks for watching. Yeah I’m a nightmare buying accessories. There’s always something I convince myself I need (want). It’s all good when it’s in budget 👍🏻No point in having every accessory going and can’t afford to use the flipping thing 🤔😆

Ok Graham, that was factual, it looked slightly like a hostage video, lot of edits, how bad was the stuff you( your captors) took out, guessing you lining up for a " accessories you need inside , tv, etc. (front cover?) you seem a bit sad, hope everythings ok

@CaravanVlogger 2 жыл бұрын

Thanks for watching. Yes, I'm being held hostage by the caravan vlogger's guild of evil , send help 😂 No wonder I'm looking sad and slightly frightened.... Nope, all good here thanks. Yes, the dreaded jump cut, which I am guilty of over using. I leave stuff in most might consider "bad", normally they're the funniest (subjective) bits. I do cut out umms, errs and bits where I'm looking vacantly at the camera hoping for inspiration! Ah, I already have an accessories inside the caravan vlog, not that it would stop me doing it again of course. It's good to do this type of vlog every once in a while. Normal weekly vlogs are good for a week and hopefully offer regular viewers entertainment (again subjective 😆). These style of vlogs can continue to help new caravanners for a while as and when needed... All part of my plan for world domination, of course. Onwards!
