Essential accessories in a motorhome

More and more people are interested in finding out which motorhome accessories they need to buy. This is only logical, because for some time now this form of travel has been more fashionable than ever before. After the arrival of the coronavirus in everyone’s life, many people have chosen to enjoy touring more independently. They are also perfect for a few days of camping with plenty of amenities. Of course, it is necessary to try to make them as comfortable as possible, with the tips below you will achieve this.

What are the must-have motorhome accessories you should always take with you on your next trip?

Pay attention to the list we have compiled with the essential accessories in a motorhome, getting them will allow you to enjoy your trips even more:

1. Fire extinguisher

A small, one-kilo fire extinguisher is an affordable product that can literally save your life. It can also be recharged if you use it, so don’t miss out on this important safety feature.

2. Chocks to carry in the motorhome

The chocks, as their name suggests, are used to wedge motorhomes. It is a very useful element to prevent them from moving from the place where you place them. It is another safety-related item that is best not to do without.

3. Security lock

In this case it takes care of the safety of the owners of the motorhome, but in a different way. Using this type of lock makes sure that no one can access the vehicle when you are inside or when you are not.

4. First Aid Kit

Carrying a first-aid kit in your campervan will save you from having to search for the nearest pharmacy in case of need. As well as items to treat wounds, burns or insect bites, it should also include any treatment you are taking and over-the-counter medicines, such as painkillers.

5. Extension cable

An extension cable is another essential item, as it will allow you to connect different appliances to the mains more easily, so that you don’t have to worry about having a plug socket nearby.

6. Set of table and chairs

Even if your motorhome includes a table and chairs inside, you should also bring this type of folding furniture so that you can enjoy eating outdoors. Especially if you’re travelling in good weather, this is a must.

7. Window darkener

El sol puede ser muy molesto en cualquier momento, pero sobre todo si estás intentando descansar o ver una pantalla. Por eso, si tu autocaravana no tiene ninguna protección para las ventanas, te recomendamos que optes por un parasol.

8. Rechargeable lamp

Having a lamp of this type will be useful to have lighting outside the motorhome and also if you move around inside the campsite. And the fact that it can be recharged is also very advantageous.

9. Basic tools to carry in the motorhome

You never know when you’re going to have a breakdown or when something inside your motorhome is going to break. That’s why it’s important to have a small toolbox with the basics, so you’ll be prepared in case of an emergency.

10. Portable shower

While some motorhomes have a shower inside, others do not. In the latter case, purchasing a portable motorhome will help you maintain hygiene during your trip, although if you’re staying at a campsite you can also use the on-site showers.

11. Toilet bowl cleaner tablets

They are another essential item you should take on your trip and many people forget about them until they need them. 

12. Portable washing machine to carry in the motorhome

It will allow you to wash small quantities of clothes. It is convenient and will prevent you from accumulating a lot of clothes for the return home. In this case, even if you are staying at a campsite, you can use their laundry facilities.

13. Bicycle racks

If you are going to take advantage of your next motorhome getaway to ride a bike, you should take this type of vehicle with you. To do this, there is nothing better than installing bike racks.

14. Awning

Installing an awning in the motorhome will allow you to protect yourself from the sun or rain when you are outside the motorhome. In addition, there are different models so that you can choose the one that best suits your needs.

15. Solar panel

Having a solar panel will help you to be self-powered. It can be a key element when you are travelling to different places to charge your mobile phone, for example.

16. Television antenna

Although it is true that with mobile devices and their Internet connection you can access many multimedia contents, having a television antenna will also allow you to enjoy this medium.

17. Hose

Carrying a hose in your motorhome will come in very handy for a variety of tasks. Make sure it is easy to store and has sufficient length to get the most out of it.

Now that you know the essential accessories in a motorhome, don’t miss out on them. They will make your journeys more comfortable and safer.
