Finding suitable Christmas presents for your friends and family can often seem like a chore, which is why if they take up a new hobby or leisure pursuit it’s a great excuse to theme your gifts for their latest venture. If you have a friend or family member who has recently bought a caravan or motorhome, then please read on as we give you some ideas for caravan Christmas gifts.
Water and waste accessories
Now this might not sound like the most glamorous of gift ideas, particularly when the word ‘waste’ is involved, but believe us when we say your recipient will thank you for anything practical that makes their life as a leisure vehicle owner easier.
Every caravan owner will need both an aquaroll for collecting and storing fresh water and a waste master to store waste or ‘grey’ water until it can be disposed of. Though storage bags are not strictly necessary, they are very practical when it comes to storing these items away when not in use.

When looking for Christmas presents for caravan owners, don't be afraid to prioritise practicality. Whilst most people might baulk at getting a pack of toilet roll for Christmas, your new leisure vehicle owners will thank you when they don’t block up their brand new chemical toilet with the wrong kind of paper!

Towing mirrors
You can’t tow a caravan legally without being able to see it properly from within your vehicle. Whilst many new owners will sort towing accessories out early on, if your recipient hasn’t done so, needs a spare, or hasn’t got that far with their purchase, a towing mirror might make the perfect gift.

Caravan Christmas gifts: cleaning accessories
Though winter is the perfect time to clean a caravan before it goes into storage for the colder months, caravan owners will find themselves cleaning throughout the year, particularly if they’ve been through muddy terrain. Having plenty of cleaning supplies in stock is a great way to be prepared. If you’re making a box of caravan christmas gifts, don’t forget to include at least one of the following items:
Fenwicks Caravan Cleaner
Fenwicks Motorhome Cleaner
Fenwicks Overwintering - exterior protector
Fenwicks Bobby Dazzler - after wash protective coating
Fenwicks Black Streak Remover - great for removing travel grime
Other accessories
A good sealant is a sensible choice to add to your caravan or motorhome gift bag. Sealing and rebedding caravan fittings is ultimately something leisure vehicle owners have to do at some stage, so a handy roll of tape or tube of sealant is incredibly useful.

Keeping damp and moisture from ruining the interior of your caravan or motorhome is particularly important during the colder months and when in storage. Placing moisture traps inside the leisure vehicle will help to absorb moisture and prevent damp and mildew.

And last but not least, no caravan Christmas gifts hamper is complete without a Caravan Crazy Keyring!
Wishing you all a very happy caravan Christmas! 🎄
