I've done it both ways too!!!

Did Duke of Ed where you carry everything in your back pack, no room for tv, heater etc.

Did go camping Aug bank holiday with family ( hubby, 5y old and toddler) and at night we were so cold I vowed never to camping again without a heater!! The toddler spent nearly an hour shivering in my in laws caravan.

The 1st time with electric we just took some lights, heater and elec cool box.

 2nd time, the above plus mobile charger, travel kettle, camera charger, hairdryer, fairy lights for gazebo. We did take a mini tv just in case we had bad weather but never turned it on.

If we didn't have kid, would probably not bothered with the electric but now weve got it we'll enjoy our holidays in comfort.

Major down side is space in the car

I agree with Lancsguy, camping is about going back to basics!! If you want to take a TV and heater then get a caravan! Camping is all about fresh air, and back to basics!

I'll never have electric when I go camping, I just personnaly don't see the point in it.

Just my two pence worth

Camping is about doing what you want.  I don't recall getting a leaflet with my tent saying electric was not allowed.

I wasn't trying to push my views on anyone! I agree, I hate people who force there views on people! I was just saying personnaly I don't see the point, and off course If people want to use it then fair enough, It's upto them!
