We are planning on camping for a weekend this summer. Have 2 children (ages 3 and 6 months). Don't want to splash out on hugely expensive tent in case we don't like camping.
Have seen this tent package on special at Halfords.
Does it seem like a sesnsible purchase?
And what else would you advise we purchase?

Thanks!

Oh, and if you don't think this is a good purchase - can you recommend another option at a similar price?

Thanks!

Looks fine - unless you would prefer a tent more like this design here where you could have the children in with you.

But obviously it's a good deal with the airbeds and everything - I would take extra blankets as the sleeping bags will be v cheap and might have nylon lining, shudder!

You will need something to cook on, but Halfords have v reasonable camping stoves, you can take your least best kitchen pans, washing up bowl, plastic plates etc.

Camping chairs.

We have almost no spcialist camping equipment, just take stuff from home.
