Camping Gear
26 Answers
We're camping at Silverstone for a couple of nights in June and it looks like we are going to have to buy all the gear so I'm after some tips as I have never been camping before.
Tents - is there anything specifici I should be looking for when buying one? Is a two man tent really comfortable for two people or would a 4 man tent be better? Not really wanting to spend more then about £50.00
Air Beds - Are the double air beds comfortable? Do they stay pumped up?
........ No idea what else we'll need! Any tips?

It depends on what facilities will be available to you and of course it's in June but you still need warm clothes incase the weather isn't great. But you'll be around civilisation.
Enough clothes (including bad weather gear), enough food and drink or money to buy more if that's your plan. Plus cutlery, dishes and plates or even better those army style sets or tins, maybe a camping stove if you're doing your own food. Bottles for storing water if you can fill them up. A swiss army knife or one of those other little tools thats ten things on one etc.
Tent, fly sheet (most decent tents have one attached) roll mat or blow up bed (remember a pump if you're going for this option), sleeping bags or blankets. Sleeping bags come in different thicknesses and if it's a warm night and you have a thick one, you'll be sweating like a pig.
Torches, spare batteries, first aid kit, spare tent pegs if available, a hammer/mallet, sun hat, sun cream, toilletries (and toilet paper).
That's all I can think of ATM.
