I’m surprised by that. We all commented now it’s quite small (in our limited experience).3 Cliffs Bay, stayed there in 2018, lovely area but we found the site too big for us. Enjoy.
How effective do you find the awning on the passenger side for fridge performance?We moved on from last week's stop at Camping Jungfrau and are now set up at Camping de Matour near Macon in France. Nice little municipal site partnered with the local outdoor pool which we first used last year. 70 pitches and 5 minutes walk from the town centre. There's a local produce & food fair on Monday nights on the village.
Pitches vary in size but are mostly generous, allowing us to max out for the duration (6 nights). This year's extended base camp includes the Galli compact (RSV) awning connected with the side panels of a Comfortz awning room to create an extended antechamber. The Thule sun blocker on the fridge side is mainly for privacy but hopefully helps the fridge a little.
Temp was 33° outside today. Sleeping with the side door open using a MaxCamp midge net (not pictured).

Difficult to tell to be honest as daytime temperatures were typically 35° this week. and we didn't have anything to directly compare it to. We were on hook up rather than battery so weren't too concerned about conserving power. We did have to turn the fridge down from '6' to '5' though to prevent icing.How effective do you find the awning on the passenger side for fridge performance?
It’s Mojave Beige, but yes it’s one of those colours that really changes depending on the light, anything but beige lolWhat colour is your Cali?
Looks like my dad’s 1970’s Maxi Gold colour.
It’s really nice![]()
I think I see 5 cycles there? Now that has to be a new record!Enjoyed a 5 day cycle tour along the ViaRhona from Seyssel to Lyon with the family.

Love Cannock chase, Its an hour away from me.A quick solo overnight to indulge in some MTBing up at Cannock Chase. Tackeroo campsite is particularly good (for proximity to trails and “wild” feel).

The lads took me on the black trail ?
The trail with rocks with drop offs, they were impressed with my "drop offs"
I have a 2021 Whyte E-160 RS in matt green.
Loving the Knaus ! great bit of kit.
I have studied your van shield on the non sliding door side. I have been experimenting with varies home made ones. 1 to keep the side cool, 2 for privacy and 3 to keep the rain out of the side window. I think my last last attempt was too heavy and dark. So time to consider a lighter one like yours. Question what make is it and will it keep the rain off the window?We moved on from last week's stop at Camping Jungfrau and are now set up at Camping de Matour near Macon in France.
