Think garden sleepovers, sizzling BBQs, starlit skies and living room play dens. To get involved simply tag Millets and TentLife in snaps of your camping adventures and use the hashtag #StayHomeCamp. Join the Facebook event to keep up with the #StayHomeCamp community.

Home Camping Inspiration | How to Bring the Outdoors In

Planning your own garden or home campsite is easy; below are some great ways you can get involved. Whatever size your garden is, we're confident you can still have fun outdoors. Not got a garden? Why not build a living room den, hike the height of your favourite mountain on the stairs or even cook a meal that reminds you of past adventures outdoors. Don’t forget to share your adventures and ideas using #StayHomeCamp to inspire others.

Garden Sleepover

A great one for young families, pitching a pop up tent in your back garden is an easy and fun way to introduce kids to the outdoors close to home. Snacks, cosy sleeping bags and a night light are all you need. Check out this great post from our friends at Dear Mummy Blog who spent a night in their garden last year: click here.

Mini Festival

Not able to get to a festival this year? Why not create your own at your very own home? Dress your tent with bunting and fairy lights, break out the party food and transform your garden into your private festival field.

Stargazing

Wrap up warm and step outside to look up and enjoy the clear night sky. Find a countryside spot close to home where light pollution is low, and you’ll experience an interstellar sightseeing adventure like no other. Click here to read about Britain’s top stargazing spots.

Backpacker Base

Hardened backpackers used to getting out into the hills will be finding isolation tough. If that sounds like you then why not pitch your tent at home and make new experiences on your own doorstep. Going off-grid in your own backyard is surely an adventure that will keep your inner outdoor fire burning brightly.

Campfire Fun

There’s no greater pleasure than cooking marshmallows and other treats over a campfire. Firepits and portable grills are safe, simple and fun ways to enjoy a campfire. Our friends at Scrapbook Blog enjoy toasting treats over a fire last year; take a look here.
