Useful motorhome accessories

Practical motorhome accessories – Perfectly equipped for the next camping vacation

In this article we present useful accessories for motorhomes. We are not interested in a complete RV packing list, but a selection of RV gadgets that will make your camping vacation a comfortable glamping vacation!

✓ Awnings for your motorhome

At the top of our list are awnings for motorhomes. Awning camper awnings or awnings for the side wall of your camper offer you a sheltered place on the campsite, protecting you from the sun and rain. Besides, your living space will be extended at the same time during your vacation and you can use your extra space not only for relaxing in nature, but also as a storage space for your camping equipment.

✓ Bicycle carrier 

Motorhome bike racks allow you to transport your bike on vacation. On site, a bike can be very convenient and give you more flexibility. There is a wide range of bike carrier models. Most motorhomes are now equipped with a reinforced rear wall, so you can attach the bike carrier to the motorhome rear wall without any problems. When mounting, you should make sure that your license plate and brake lights are not covered by the Womo bike carrier. It is also important that the bicycle carrier does not exceed the permissible total weight of the motorhome. If you have an e-bike or want to transport several bikes, you should always keep the maximum total weight in mind.

✓ Motorhome rain gutter

Motorhome rain gutters we consider useful motorhome equipment for several reasons:

  • Rain gutters for motorhome prevent pollution by allowing water to run off the side of the vehicle and no longer directly on the motorhome.
  • This can save you a lot of time cleaning in the long run, as there will be no more black dirt streaks on your RV. 
  • Your camper will no longer get wet from the inside when you open the door thanks to a rain gutter.

When buying a motorhome rain gutter, you have the choice between a rail made of polyvinyl with an aluminum core or an aluminum rain gutter profile. The models made of PVC are self-adhesive, whereas the aluminum rain gutters must be fixed with a special adhesive.

✓ Motorhome mattress pad

Even on camping vacations, we want a dry and comfortable place to sleep. But moisture often accumulates in the camper, which can lead to mold and mildew stains, especially under the mattress. That’s why a breathable mattress pad is a must-have for every camper. The open weave of a mesh mattress pad allows condensation to escape and your mattress to stay dry. A positive side effect is that you also lie more comfortable. The pad is made of lightweight material that is easy to fold and store.

✓ Motorhome roof rack

When you go camping with motorhome, you usually need a lot of luggage. Therefore, we find roof racks for motorhomes practical to easily take everything with you. Especially if you like to pursue sporting activities on vacation, a motorhome roof rack is worthwhile, for example, to be able to transport a canoe or surfboards.

✓ Motorhome windbreak

Das Besondere am Campingurlaub ist, dass man die meiste Zeit draußen verbringt. Speziell im Sommerurlaub freut man sich über eine leichte Brise in der Sonne. Problematisch wird es nur, wenn es sehr windig wird und das Camping Zubehör wegfliegt oder Sie zu viel Zugluft abbekommen. Deshalb empfehlen wir Ihnen einen Windschutz für Wohnmobile. Er lässt sich schnell aufstellen und schafft sowohl einen windfreien Platz als auch einen Blickschutz auf dem Campingplatz.
