It's wonderful to get away for the weekend into the countryside in a tent. There is nothing to beat breathing fresh air and eating outdoors, surrounded by beautiful scenery. Of course, having the right camping supplies and equipment makes the experience all the more enjoyable.
The basic things are the most important to get right. There is a large variety of tents both in price and size, from the small one-man variety to large family tents. It's important to select one that suits the terrain and climate of the destination. Some tents are only designed for summer weather and any winter camping will require a 4-season tent. Most people camping like to have an air mattress to sleep on. These come in several sizes with pillows and pumps that can be charged up from a car battery.
A good sleeping bag will ensure a sound night's sleep. There is also a choice of materials aimed at different weather conditions. A lantern or flashlight with spare batteries is an excellent item to put on the camping supplies list. Plastic table and chair sets are light and easy to keep clean and will last for years. There are Dutch ovens and barbecues, portable stoves, kettles and sets of hardwearing pans and dishes. All food and drinks can be kept cool in cool boxes or mini refrigerators.
For campers who want to take a break from cooking, camping supplies could include pre-prepared meals that just need added water. There is a large range that includes curries, meatballs, chilies, and pasta and some delicious puddings. Screens will give some protection from interested insects and windbreaks will give shelter from the wind and rain.
Laundry is something else to consider when camping outdoors. Mini washing machines and dryers will keep the family in clothes and camping supplies should also include a clothes line or airer that can be attached to the tent.
Toilet facilities are the more mundane aspects of camping supplies but a necessary concern. There is a large range of portable and chemical toilets on the market.
