A folding chair is an essential for any motorhomer and this version from Olpro seems purpose-built for dads. It has a cushioned seat and backing for extra comfort, an insulated side pocket for drinks and snacks, and an additional pocket for stashing valuables – in short, everything an outdoorsy dad needs to relax. Even better, it's currently on offer on the Out & About Shop!
3. Take the Slow Road: Scotland
Looking for campervan and motorhome travel destinations in the UK?

Buy it now from Amazon!
4. Quest Motorhome Door Mat
Cheesy? Maybe – but this novelty welcome mat speaks to your dad's absolute love of motorhoming and the freedom that comes with it. The fact that it draws the same wry chuckle as his jokes is just an added bonus. Buy it now from the Out & About Shop!
5. Fiamma Pack Organiser
Give your dad the gift of more space with an organising system for his motorhome. This one by Fiamma has nine compartments, varying in size, and can hang over the back of your cab chairs, helping to keep the old man's motorhome clutter free and tidy.
6. Alpina Folding Grill Pan
Add convenience and versatility to your dad’s motorhome kitchen set-up. The shape of a typical pan is arguably as inconvenient to store away as it gets, but this square pan maximises the cooking space and is easy to pack away. Whether your dad is an outdoor cooking connoisseur, or still learning his craft, you’ll be thankful for the even heat distribution that non-stick aluminium provides, along with raised edges to reduce spills and, above all else, a foldable handle for a far more convenient storage shape. Grill your meats evenly, and pack away in minutes – it’s an amateur chef's dream.
7. Novelty Motorhome T-shirt
There’s just something about a novelty graphic T-shirt that the stereotypical man is drawn to at a certain age. If that man happens to be your dad, it would be rude for them not to look this cool as they tour the summer away in their motorhome. Keep your dad trendy this Father’s Day for £13.99.
8. Olpro Stainless Steel Whistling Kettle
Put simply, what’s the point in visiting your dad on his big day if he can’t offer you the mandatory gesture of a hot beverage? With this kettle, you’ll also be blessed with a lecture about how it whistles, just like all kettles used to ‘back in the day’.
9. Carawash 12V Portable 20L Jet Washer
Make sure your father’s beloved motorhome has an appearance he’s proud of, and one that you’re willing to visit. With this portable jet washer, that motorhome’s exterior is staying in pristine condition all year round. This one is for those occasions when you really want to treat the old man, but isn't he worth it?
10. Streetwize Power Fan
With the ability to adjust the angle of both fans, pops can keep his whole motorhome nice and breezy. And as your dad will know, a cool motorhome is an inviting quality, resulting in a greater chance of an appearance from yourself.
Check out the Out & About Shop
If all of the above aren't exactly the perfect gift, we're sure you'll find it on the Out & About Shop. From accessories to tents, there you'll find hundreds of options perfect for your outdoor-loving dad!
