Can anyone suggest a groundsheet for a TT?

Would probably think of a small carpet or rug for on top of the main area.

We use Eco mat as it gives a bit of cushioning

Hi,

We use an eco mat as well. not only does it give cushioning but it feels warm underfoot, especially in the morning when pvc groundsheets can be cold and damp.

dont forget they are breathable, which is a bonus as a lot of sites only allow breathable groundsheets.

I like grass, but I have a long three foot wide strip of groundsheet in front of the cabin area so we can leave our shoes there when we go into the inner area. I also have a big plastic backed picnic blanket (that I can machine wash) for the living area. I hate having any sort of groundsheet near the cooking area...it gets greasy and wet and positively dangerous.

We use a breathable groundsheet, then put the travel rug/picnic mat things down, makes it cosy.

Always used grass with the awning in our old T T. Had a groundsheet but did not use it.

I find it cold for little feet without the groundsheet down, and dirty too when it's damp. We like to walk round in our socks when inside.
