Mostly reds - The expert camper

Mostly purple - The family camper
You love nothing more than being surrounded by your loved ones and a family camping trip is the perfect way to spend the easter and summer holidays. A large sized tent to fit everyone and everything except the kitchen sink for that home from home comfort.
There are so many amazing family tents out there (our persoanl favourite are the air tents), so here's a few things to consider when buying one.
Mostly blue - The festival camper
You camp for the love of music and a good time with your friends rather than for the love of camping - it's more of a necessity, but this doesn't mean you don't enjoy it once you get out the camping chairs and open up a can of beer.
The pop up is a classic for festivals! Pitched in seconds, but we all know the packing away can be a little tricky so take a look at how easy it can be when you now how here.
Mostly green - The casual camper
You may have only been camping once before or you may only go whenever you feel like it - you are the casual camper. The camper who likes to get out when the daily grind gets too much and you just fancy a chilled weekend away from it all. Whether you go as a couple or with a few of your friends, you aren't too fussed, you just like the change of scenery once in a while.
Even so, there are still the essentials you need. Make sure you've got everything from the must haves checklist.
Whichever camper you are we know you will have tons of fun! But it doesn't matter if you are an expert or first timer, you still need the right gear to keep you safe and comfortable. Check out our tent buying guide for all the info you'll need.
