The Erde 122 trailer with hard top is a great trailer to get all the camping gear in. Easy to tow. You don't even know it is there. The hardtop is also great as it allows you to keep all your gear secure and dry and also extends the room available in the trailer by a considerable amount.
Highly recommend. Just need to get a hitch lock of some kind.
After much deliberation and surfing we finally went for the Outwell Vermont L. There was quite a lot of bad press in the reviews which really put us off but wow what a tent. We went for the first time this weekend and it has converted me from the steely camper to the leisure camper seamlessly. It was really easy to put up and to put away. We did take it down to the park for a dry run but apart from that we just got on with it. Best bits are the separate sleeping, living, kitchen areas, also the wardrobe which I though was a bit cheesy actually turned out to be really useful. Also really love my carpet what a luxury. Three sections is great. One for sleeping, one as a living area (with carpet installed) and the final one for cooking, eating and the dog. It also poured with rain on Sunday no leaks. All in all a fab tent.
Only bad thing is the amount of room required to dry the tent out. You need a big garden to put this tent up in.
Spent the weekend at the Camping and Caravaning Site at Dunstan Hill. The site is beautifully well kept with very friendly staff and visitors. Highly recommend.
Only a 15 minute walk to this beach which was very quite considering the lovely weather.
Lots of good dog walks from the site
