After our camping trips this year we decided we love camping and although i had always wanted a caravan, we decided camping would be better for us,so we set out looking for a new bigger family tent and as it was end of August the sales were on so we got this amazing new tent for half price.
The idea was that we would test it out on the field to make sure everything was there and then pack it away for next year.....but i was just too excited so found a last minute camp site in Chester for 2 nights over the bank holiday weekend.
So here it is our new 8 berth tent
The ground sheet is sewn in the main tent and an extra one for the porch which was ideal on this holiday s it rained alot!
The site was really busy and that first night it was really sunny and warm
The inside is massive and very empty,well this trip it was,i want to get some inflatable camping couches and i have already got a camping kitchen and camping cupboards that were reduced at aldi.
There are three, two person rooms at the back or you can make a larger room and a smaller room and another two person room at the side. The kids all prefered to sleep in the larger room together.
I really enjoy sitting out side as it goes dark,that first night it was very cold and the windows all steamed up. We couldn't use the fire pit the first night as the logs we took would not light as they were wet
It was a very rainy first morning,but we knew it would be and brought the table in the porch and we had a view unlike in the other tent which had no windows and no room to move about.
We decided to head off to Chester, to the Roman Museum.
By the time we got back the rain had stopped and we had got some wood for the fire
We could cook our tea outside and have some toasted Marshmallows
The best bit is sitting outside by the fire as it goes dark
