Got the father in law coming to stay for a few weeks next month, and was planning on a few midweek camping trips (my weekend is Monday-Tuesday) till I remembered he was coming.
Have to see if he'd acutally be interested, but I though, what the hell we could take him along - we have a 2 bedroom tent after all and it's not like you need loads of kit for a short stay. Thing is, I know he suffers from a bit of a bad back, so I was thinking he might find it difficult to have to sleep so close to the floor (as in getting up and down).
I've never used camp beds - are they any good, and how high are they off the floor. Alternatively, would strapping two single airbeds together work? Those high rise airbeds are more than a little bit expensive to justify buying one for a one-off.
Recently someone did mention that she strapped two airbeds together to make a highrise, but I can't remember who. Hopefully she will answer your question cos I wanna know too . It sounds like a good idea to me.
Alternatively you could use a camp bed with an airbed on top of it for extra comfort.
When I was very pregnant I found it easier to get up and down from an airbed when I had a small folding stool next to the airbed to lever myself up and down with. Also to sit on while I put on my socks! Might be worth a try? Camp stools are very cheap.
I`ve got a certain degree of back problems, btw, and I find my Colemans airbed more comfortable than my bed at home.
Amazing family weekend with old steam engines, classic car displays, market stalls, and full catering and bar. And camping on site - Save £25 by booking in advance.
