From a portable generator to convenient cookware, products that multi-task or pack away easily are the key to making the most of limited space.
1. höfats Cube Fire Basket
Bring warmth to evenings by your campervan with this multipurpose fire basket. Add the grill grid to use it as a barbecue, and when the flames go out, simply turn it upside down — the ashes will get stored in its inner tray without spilling. It also comes with a fitted wooden board, so it can be used as a stool or table, too. £379.
2. Jackery Explorer 300 Plus Portable Power Station And Solar Saga Panels
Weighing just over 3.5kg but still durable for outdoor use, this portable power station can charge up to four devices at once. Power it up through the AC adaptor in two hours, via solar panels in four or using the vehicle adaptor in five and a half. £319.
3. Outwell Skyros Organisation Unit
Keep your campervan tidy with this four-shelf cupboard unit. Holding up to 30kg, it has an aluminium frame, a laminated top, a zippable door and mesh for ventilation, plus side pockets. It’s straightforward to assemble and comes with a bag so you can tuck it away when not in use. £119.99.
4. Beachbum Brobe
From days by the sea to evenings around the fire, stay warm and dry outdoors with this robe made entirely from recycled materials. The thick fleece lining provides immediate warmth while the nylon outer layer is designed to be 100% water- and windproof. The oversized fit also means you can change underneath. £130.

5. RidgeMonkey Connect Deep Pan and Griddle

6. Stanley Quencher H2.0 Flowstate Tumbler

7. Duvalay Comfort Sleeping Bag
Cosier than a traditional sleeping bag, this two-in-one duvet and mattress topper will ensure a good night’s sleep no matter how cramped the space. The memory foam base adds comfort to a hard mattress, or you can use it on its own as a bed. It’s quick to roll up, with straps to secure it in place. £169.95.
