So, you’ve decided to go camping? You are going to love it! Whether you're a first-timer or a seasoned pro, there are a few things you should know to make your trip as smooth, fun, and stress-free as possible.
Pick the right campsite
There are plenty of campsite websites in the UK you can use to find the perfect campsite to meet your requirements. Whether you are looking for a quiet less populated site or you want a site with all the amenities e.g. fridge, shop on site etc.
Make sure you read reviews, and also leave a review once you have been! This will help you pick the best campsite.
Know the Weather Forecast
Mother Nature can be unpredictable, so check the weather before you go. If it’s looking like rain or storms, be prepared with waterproof gear (especially your tent!). Always bring extra layers to keep warm at night, as temperatures can drop even in the summer months.
Tip: Even if it’s sunny, pack a rain jacket. You never know when a downpour might sneak up on you.
Respect Nature & Leave No Trace
Camping is about being one with nature, so be sure to leave it as beautiful as you found it. Follow the “Leave No Trace” principles and take all your rubbish home with you OR put it in the bins at the campsite.
Bring Supplies
One of the best things about camping is the fact you can cook your meals alfresco! We love having BBQ's and also cooking meals such a fajitas or a chilli. Make sure you have a coolbox as this will keep all your ingredients cool and fresh.
But most importantly have fun! Waking up to the sunrise and enjoying a coffee outside sitting on your camping chair is one of the best feelings in the world!!
