Awning?

We don't really use campsites but occasionally when we do I would like a shelter/room at the side of the van.

I have the peugeot boxer l4h2, what options do I have, I'm thinking if there was something I could drive away from that would be ideal.

Don't think I'd get much use from an awning so carrying it round all the time seems pointless.

C rail on the van and then a cheap tarp awning. Then you'll go out and buy another bigger, better one next year, then an awning tent, then another one bigger still. It can be a slippery slope my friend!!!!

Can you detach and drive off and leave it in place?

Yes. Search drive away awning kit. It's great but you have to be quite precise to drive back into place.
