Beebop Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 Looking at going on a camping trip in the next month, problem is I've never put up a Tent in my life. Are there any tents that are easier to put up than others? and do they come with instructions? and what do people think is best, camping in a tent or caravan?

Guest Posted March 19, 2007 Share Posted March 19, 2007 campervan is the best option!!!!!!!!!! we have a trigano tribute 3 berth just like the one on this link - http://www.motorholme.co.uk/motorhomes/2l_model.htm Its so easy to drive and can go anywhere a car can go (except high restriction car parks) and it has all the mod cons you need. Just park up, then put the kettle on! eas peasy! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

squeakyclean Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 We have a caravan and a tent, and I like them both really. The best tent to go for is a Khyam, they are so easy to put up, you can't go wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beckelina Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Have you seen the pop-up ones that they are selling in decathalon in town? They are actually meant to be quite good - but they are only two-person so definitely not family socialising spaces like frame tents or big dome tents!

john t Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 I bought this really big tent last year..internet said about an hour to erect.. So there we were 4 hours later..just about sucessfully put it up. When a guy came over and told us we had the poles in the wrong place.. I just laughed...took it down again..and with his help..reput it up..it wont take that long next time though. Camping is really fun, especially if you get the weather.! jt Forgot to add..i have a trailer tent that i dont use and im looking to sell it..pm for details if your interested..

squeakyclean Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 CCC Do sell tents. Take a look at a khyam , if they have them, ours goes up like an umbrella, and it's fab! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
canadablade Posted March 20, 2007 Share Posted March 20, 2007 Looking at going on a camping trip in the next month, problem is I've never put up a Tent in my life. Are there any tents that are easier to put up than others? and do they come with instructions? and what do people think is best, camping in a tent or caravan? Real camping should be done in a tent. As for the erections, I let the wife take care of that :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
