Alsie-42 that's some loft!!!

Can you have loft envy?

Mmmmmmm, do I wrap my new Monterey in insulation before putting him to bed in our chilly but dry attic?

I only rencently purchased my tent so at the moment the poles are in the hallway and the canvas etc are in my living room. I have two cupboards on the upstairs landing where I can put the things that need to stay temperature controlled, the poles will go in the shed eventually when I have finished measuring up to make adaptions to my sun canopy. The camp table and kitchen are too heavy for me to get in and out of the loft so they are in the cupboard. I usually find a way to make room for everything

Most of my stuff fits into the cupboard under the stairs - except the Vango, which is under a table in the living room. It's in an alcove behind an armchair, so not too obtrusive. I don't have a reliably dry shed (somethng to aspire to!) or a garage, and am past wrestling camping gear in and out of the loft. If I buy anything else, I'm in trouble...!

I'm glad you qualified that Hedgehugger - I had images of you all sitting around having dinner, diligently ignoring the lump under the table!

Everything that goes in the roofbag lives under our bed, with the roofbag - ready to go in about 15 minutes.  Everything else is on metal shelving in my office (but we are one of those strange "one tent" families - there is no room for more)

Tent and delicate things under the spare room bed. Sleeping bags and duvets in spare room wardrobe with bedding and pillows. All metal/plastic/outdoor stuff in caravan storage areas with awning and poles.

If i am honest, if you open any cupboard/chest in our house, you will find something to do with camping/caravanning!!

...and of course there's finding space to store the stuff you've bought but not told the OH about... the odd spare frame tent for example

I still have my two tents in the boot of the car at the moment;  only because there is no room in the house to put them.  17
