Types of Camping

Camping used to be just camping but these days there are lots of different types to choose from:

What to Look Out For When Buying a Tent

Tents come in vast array of shapes, sizes and prices.

Usually you get what you pay for – a cheap supermarket tent may be OK for a festival for a night or two but if you’re wanting something durable, light weight, easy-to-erect and take down and well-designed, you’ll have to do your research and be prepared to spend more.

What You Need to Bring With You on Your Camping Trip

(Besides The Tent)…

Exactly what you take on a camping trip is up to you and how limited you are as to what you take depends on the type of trip you’re making.

Where To Camp?

When it comes to camping, the world is your oyster and there are thousands of sites to choose from in the UK alone – you’re likely to live within a few miles of your closest one.

Before Your First Camping Trip

It’s wise to get your tent out on the back lawn or any local bit of space if you’ve not got a lawn to test how easy it is for you to put up and take down again and that you know how to do it.
