Hi Annie,

We also use the pop up laundry bags (kiddies ones bought in Tesco half price). We take one large holdall then unpack our own clothes when on site.

I find it useful to separate the 'smalls' into small pop up bags as it's because of them that every thing else gets messed up. I also pack some of the clothes in outfits, rolled up so that I know if the kids need something a bit smarter the right top is already rolled up in the right trousers. I use holdalls but I have some ikea bags which I think might be useful for clothes this year.

We use Vango cargo bags/holdalls with a C shaped zip so the whole top opens - one each with colour coded labels so we can instantly tell whose is whose. Smalls etc in end pockets and the rest in themed piles within the main section. We may combine into 2 bags for a quick weekend trip. Dirties go into plastic bags. Seems to work perfectly for us and as they are sturdy (designed for expeditions) but soft sided they fit nicely into the packing scheme.

Love our set-up and need no more tents or gear, so trying to stop looking!

One of our holdalls has a zip which opens along the top and one side so you can open it all up and see all the clothes.

We have been to hotels abroad using it and not bothered unpacking so camping is easy! We leave clothes in the bags until we need them.
