Myself and my boyfriend are new to camping. We borrowed a tent last year and got out once in October which was fun if not a bit wet and cold lol.

Now we are going to give it another go and have bought a tent. The Colemans waterfall 5 with a free carpet. http://www.winfieldsmegastore.com/tents/1-5_person_tents/coleman/5_person_tents/coleman_waterfall_5_tent_%5B2009%5D/204391/grey/product.html

We have most of the equipment we need so about ready to go (i tihnk lol).

I am sooooo excited and are planning a few trips during the year.
sometime soon - one night at local campsite to try tent out.
then
july - malton
august - richmond
and i want to do the lake district at some point too.

i have picked some tips up off of here but if there is anything that you can give some newbies it would be great thankyou

make sure you invest in a bucketandchuckit, or a porta loo if you are posh. We had a Khampa Khazi and it did the job and was a great price. 

 

It will make your nights so much comfier and you won't have to watch your alcohol intake. No more trips to the loo in the rain at 3am!
