Trailer tents

We’ve just acquired a trailer tent. Any recommendations or top tips from anyone? It was made in the 90s so it’s old but in good condition.

We have a trailer tent - a Trigano Randger - and we love it. My top tip would be as soon as its going to be dry for a couple of days, put it up, give all the hard surfaces a good scrub, wash the curtains etc, and get replacement mattresses made - you can get memory foam cut to size.

We've got a traitor tent. The best advise if you're going to do lots of camping is to get cheap kitchen stuff (kettles, pans, plates, cutlery etc) you can leave in the trailer.

Also, practice putting up the whole tent before you go as it can be a bit of a challenge at first.

We have electric hook up so have bought LED light strips for light at night, a beer fridge and plugging in electric stuff.

Traitor tent GrinGrinGrin
Is that because the 'real' tents disowned it?!!

It feels like a traitor when you're trying to get the awning up!!!
