Adam

The perfect camp chair is essential, not only for comfort but it also has to be light weight and compact. The Navigator Nowhere Chair is a standout caravan and camping must-have for me. It’s the ultimate all-rounder – ideal for lounging by the fire or enjoying a meal at your campsite sitting up at a table. Unlike many compact camping chairs, it combines comfort with practicality with a drink holder and pocket to store you phone, magazine or book. There is also a matching footrest sold seperately for next-level relaxation and handy side table. Plus, it folds easily for portability, making it a top pick for folding camping chairs. Sturdy, versatile, and stylish, this chair has everything you need to upgrade your camping experience!

As an experienced caravanner and camper, I’ve tried countless solutions to keep the van clean, but nothing beats the Muk Mat—my go-to for caravan and camping must-haves! Unlike hardware store off-cuts of artificial turf, which struggle to trap dirt and sand, the MukMat’s innovative design holds an impressive amount of grime, keeping it outside where it belongs. Whether you’re setting it up as annex matting, a camping mat, or an outdoor caravan mat, it’s durable, lightweight, and a breeze to clean. Perfect for the rugged Aussie outdoors, this caravan outdoor mat is a game-changer for anyone tired of bringing the campsite indoors

The Kids

Starlink is the coolest caravan and camping essential ever! Even when we’re in the middle of the outback, it gives us super-fast satellite WiFi so we can do all our favorite things. We use it for schoolwork (Mum says that’s important), watching movies, and streaming the football with Dad. It’s the best satellite internet because it works everywhere we go, even in places where nothing else does. If you need satellite internet for caravans or want portable satellite internet for camping, Starlink is perfect for staying connected and having fun on any adventure. We can’t camp without it now!
