This is the first of four tents we’ve purchased in as many years. Although the size of a two-bed terraced, we quickly outgrew it’s island-like proportions and opted for a bigger version. Some said the inclusion of built-in hot tub was extravagant. Pah. However, the issue of size became apparent on a two week touring holiday to Wales, whereby the action of erecting such a beast every two days resulted in back ache. It’s a lengthy process; Getting it up in a field can take over an hour, and if it’s raining, wet knees are a certainty. Inevitably, this behavior will attract the attention of the caravaners who stare through tinted windows like they’ve never seen it before. Surely, they’ve tried it?

This year we are leaving the hot tub behind and have bought two much smaller tents. This means of course we will be doubling our duties, but the speed of the erections should give the caravaners something to talk about.
