Hi,

I just had to come and say that I've just ordered an Outdoor Revolution Outhouse XL 08 from camping and leisure for £49.99 17 

I'm very excited about it.It took me ages to decide which one to go for and I watched a few on ebay too. Finally made my mind up after reading the reviews on here for the Outhouse XL. It comes with a ground sheet & hi--vis guys and it packs up small too.

 I've read so much on here about the dangers of cooking a tent 17 We saw a few utility tents last year and even Mr Fitz thought they were a very good idea (and he doesn't even do any cooking!). We packed our trailer yesterday and I was very pleased with the "available" space 17

Its only 6 weeks until we head off to france camping  (first time camping abroad). I must now stop buying things for our trip. 17 I want to leave room so we can visit the camping stores in France and see what we can buy over there.

We might go off this weekend and have a practice run, to fine tune the bits n bobs. Although I had it all down to quite a fine art last year so I'm failry confident that it'll be fine. Any excuse to get off for a weekend camp though!

We love our too! We have put it up in the garden a few times with the cooker in it and lived outside for the day. It also makes a great stall for fetes and car boot sales. We bought some 2 metre porch poles to lift the door up.

we have one and now i have decided not to look for the outwell canopy but to use the outhouse for cooking,  i read an article about how if theres a fire when cooking u only lose the outhouse not your lovely and expensive tent and belongings.well worth it i think.

We use our outhouse xl as the privy/washroom when we camp on a site without shower/wash facilities (which we go to at least once a year), my dughters partner thinks were glampers.

We use an easycamp annexe to cook in as either or both doors can be poled out if necessary.
