Am really keen on the idea of camping with dp and our 2 dc (5 and 2). Only thing is I have a little citroen saxo and am worried about space! How big is your car and how big is your tent?? How do you fit it all in?

The bigger your car the more you take. Go to a shop like go outdoors where you can see the tents up get a tent you think you can manage in. The best thing to do is to go in the rain then you know what the tent will be like in the rain. It is a good idea to put a picnic blanket on the floor as it keeps the mess down you can wash it when you get home. Air beds are not good with kids the jump on them either £10 camp beds of mats on the floor. borrow of my a stove two rings are good as it is more stable and you cam cook most things. You might find you can get it all in if you hire a roof box. The first time you go don't go more the 45mins from home you can then go back if you forget something or don't have worm enough cloths. Bikes and scooters are good to take. Camping and caravan sites and friendly quite and cheap. If you have the same rules as you do at home on bed time you get tears the first night but they will be so tired they will go take a book or board games to do when the kids are in bed. They will probably wake soon after the sun . Have fun If you can't get in in your car hire one for the weekend don't change your car until you know you like it.
