Here are the 6 Prime Day bargains I think every motorhomer needs to help them live in a small space

Motorhomes are, by their very nature, limited in space – being able to make the most of the room that is available is key if you’re going to enjoy your time away. It’s all too easy to buy lots of bulky kit, only to find yourself frustrated when you realise that you’ve run out of room for the essentials you need to carry.

The trick to being able to live happily in a small space is to ensure that every product you buy is worth the room it consumes. That’s why I’ve been busy this Prime Day looking for items that do their job effectively, without taking up too much space or payload – here they are!

Odoland Camping Kitchen Utensil Organizer Travel Set was £25.99 now £22.99

As well as the six-piece kitchen gadget set (above), I’m also seriously tempted by this utensil pack, which all fits neatly into a carry bag. Included within is a range of kitchen kit that should serve you well for most mealtimes: you’ll get a peeler, a spatula, metal tongs, a metal ladle, a fish slice, a knife, scissors and a plastic chopping board. It’s a handy way to keep all of your kit together, and it’s perfect for alfresco cooking if you’re planning a BBQ.

There’s a fantastic Prime Day deal on this small gas BBQ, which is perfect if you own a campervan with limited storage space.

One of my relatives owns one of these folding stools, and absolutely loves it – it’s perfect for keeping in the van as an emergency seat or side table, or you can easily pack it in a backpack to take out on day trips. Simply pull the top upwards to extend the unit into a 45cm-tall stool; it packs away again to just 6.5cm deep. It’s strong, too, with a maximum bearing capacity of 180kg.

Despite its compact dimensions it has a maximum capacity of 150kg, and is constructed of high-quality nylon mesh and an alloy frame for extra durability.
