I dont quite know what I was on as we dont normally. Hwoever now not having to find old sheets at theback of the airing cupboard I am pleased. I am taking duvet covers for the dsses though to use a sleeping bag in, presume they presume oyu use sheets and blankets?

I had linen hire the only time we went to a camp site place (a bit like Key Camp) amd the bed linen was a funny paper like material. Was sheets and pillowcases. Wasn't pleasant to sleep on esp as I have dry skin.

Just think of the laundry that your won't have to do on your return home.

I could cope with dodgy sheets (assuming clean) just take pjs for all just in case!

Canvas Hols are fine too.
Leaving it behind all dirty and damp as you cram the car full of other stuff brings on a moment of deep joy

Take a bathmat though, and tea-towels.

Awful. Cheap, very retro (as in old!) and not made for comfort or warmth IMO

We've just come back from a Siblu hol. I took my own towels but they made up the beds with white sheets and pillow cases and left hideously flowery duvet covers folded on the beds. It was fine. We never needed the blankets or duvets as it was too warm - just used the duvet cover as a sheet.

Did they sneakily include it as a default, so you had to uninclude it by ticking a box?

Blimey! That is a lot in a tent

Can't you cancel it & just take empty duvet covers to sleep inside? (It wouldn't take up too much wine space...)
