When we went camping at the end of May last year it was VERY cold in our tents at night.We don't have electric hook-up so what would anyone recommend as a safe and effective way of warming up the tent?!!! Save setting it on fire of course!!! lol

Hi Dobs, we have for the occasions we dont have EHU a Coleman Blackcat Heater. They are flameless and are very good. Heated our large three bedroom dome up in around half hour. Also small and easy to transport.

Thanks Mangoman, I have just bought one!  Also saw they have 6 pole windbreaks for £5.50 so added that to the basket.

Now where to get the gas cheapest?

fan heaters blasting all night long... and all day!!! That's how we keep warm, even when the tent blows away around us!

Yes and us but Dobs want's to keep warm when no EHU is available. I wondered about a generator to run the fan heater all night but I know a lot of sites are anti-generator and the noise would almost certainly be a problem.
