I have a 4 man tent that I use for camping with myself and 2 kids, 2 kids are happy with the cheap Argos air beds but I am not!
I am looking for a comfy single, pls bare in mind I’m on the big side (fat) and quite tall.

When we camped we used an aerobed that was really comfortable. They do singles and doubles and have a neat electric pump

I don’t like any blow up beds but am very happy on a SIM. (Self inflating mattress).

Some people like camp beds, with or without blow up / SIM / foam mat on top.

V individual preference.

Would a foam roll up mat on top of your air bed help?

I stopped camping in tents for this reason, all beds were a bit shit and I was fed up of sleeping badly and being in discomfort when I woke up. That said, the 'best' option I found was a thick SIM on top of a camp bed with a fitted single sheet over the whole thing. And this base, with the matching SIM, also gets a lot of positive reviews: www.decathlon.co.uk/p/inflatable-camping-bed-base-camp-bed-air-70-cm-1-person/_/R-p-309887?mc=8595949

Get a decent sim! Total gamechanger, as comfy as sleeping at home. Big, though, and pricey. I think we have a vango one.

We have an alpkit sim. £150 for a double but worth it

Exped megamats are far more comfortable. I know they don't look like they would be but they are.
