Arriving in the day time will make it easier to pick a good spot, and easier to put up your tent.Practice before you goIt also helps if you know how to put up your tent before you go. It’s much easier to figure out how to do it in your own back garden than when you get to your campsite where there may be more difficult conditions.Keep warm and cosyTake a good quality sleeping bag.

It’s worth spending a little more to get decent kit to make you more comfortable and to enable you to get a good night’s sleep and enjoy your holiday more.Easy mealsMake cooking easy with some meals which are specifically designed to be used while camping, with minimal equipment.
