A Guide to Buying Curtains and Blinds for Your Caravan

A Guide to Buying Curtains and Blinds for Your Caravan

Whether you’re visiting the Lakes or you’ve booked into your favourite family-friendly caravan park your caravan should feel like a home away from home. A place to unwind and relax, forgetting the stresses of everyday life. Decorating your space and choosing the right curtains for a caravan can help to make it feel homely and welcoming.

At the Mill Shop, we have an extensive range of made-to-measure and standard-size curtains for your caravan. We also offer stylish blinds dependent on your preference.

Due to the windows being small, we recommend opting for something that will allow you privacy whilst still letting the natural light in.

Due to the layout of many holiday parks, you'll want to ensure you feel comfortable, especially if you are going to be spending a lot of time inside. With the great British weather being as unpredictable as it is, that could be a long time! Choosing curtains that feel comfortable, stylish and have an overall matching aesthetic are also important. It's best to also select something that reflects your interior decoration too.

What to take into consideration

Firstly, you need to decide which caravan curtains or blinds you think will complement your caravan's aesthetic and show off your style. Both are great options that will provide a sense of style. They will also offer privacy and help to retain heat.

Blinds will allow less natural light to penetrate your space, so if you spend a lot of time in your caravan during the day net or voiles may be a better option. However, if you mainly use your caravan as a place to sleep and spend your days exploring, they’re a great option for offering privacy and blocking out light in the evenings.

Net Curtains

The ideal option for ensuring privacy whilst not compromising on natural light. When net curtains are drawn, you’ll be able to see out at the beautiful views but people won’t be able to see in.

A practical option that doesn’t make you compromise on style. We offer many different curtains for caravans in varying colours and patterns. These can be bought as standard sizing or made to measure to ensure the perfect fit.

For perfect precision when ordering your made-to-measure nets we ask that you send us width and drop measurements, as well as your gather preference.

Voile Curtains

Voiles are similar to net curtains, the difference being voiles are woven instead of knitted. They’re a modern adaption of net curtains, with a delicate yet robust finish.

Voiles work in the same way as nets, offering privacy whilst still allowing natural light in. Available in various colours and patterns to guarantee there is something that will suit your style.

louvre blinds pattern

Louvre Blinds

Louvre is a style of window blind that features horizontal slats. This allows natural light to flood into your caravan opening the space up and keeping it light and airy.

If you’re looking to go caravaning during the rainy season these blinds are ideal. Once drawn you can open your windows to stop your caravan from feeling stuffy without rain coming in. A sophisticated and stylish option, available in an array of vibrant patterns to bring unique design to your caravan.

thermal curtain colours

Thermal Curtains

Caravan windows are not like your double-glazed windows at home. They're not the best at retaining heat. Luckily, caravans are small, so with some simple measures in place, it's easy to make and keep them warm. Thermal curtains for caravans are a great option as they keep the heat in and block out light for cosy evenings.

We can alter the drop of the curtain to your desired length on all our curtains whether they're thermal, blackout, eyelet, or pencil pleat.

How to hang curtains in your caravan

You can use either tension curtain rods or net rods. Tension rods are an easy way to hang net curtains or voiles. They’re specifically designed for smaller window areas making them ideal for curtains for caravans.

Installation is extremely easy, all you have to do is twist the rod to create tension and secure it in place.

Net rods are specifically designed to hang lightweight curtains like nets and voiles. They’re also fully extendable making them work on a range of different-sized windows within your caravan. However, if you opt for a net rod don’t forget to buy sticky hooks and supports for securing it into place.
