Choosing the right equipment to take with you on a camping holiday can be one of the hardest things to do. You have to decide between those who claim they are the ‘best’ and those who say they’re ‘great’. So who do you choose? Well, here are few tips on how to solve some of your simpler equipment problems! 

1) Choose a tent that is slightly larger than you require- this means there’s more room when the heavens decide to open and you’re stuck inside with a book.
2) Choose a sleeping bag that has dark colours inside and out. Dark colours absorb light and are quicker to dry in the sun.
3) Choose to invest in a LED head light style lamp- they give off a good amount of light and have a good battery life.
4) Choose a camping stove that comes in a compact, easy-to-carry bundle.

Investing in these will ensure that you remain dry, fed and bright with the minimum of hassle!
