Hi Val (and anyone else who has a kitchen/pup/utility tent),
I have read a couple of your replies where you have said you use a kitchen tent, in one thread a day or two ago, someone did ask if you were charged for two pitches as you had two tents but I don't remember seeing anyone reply.
What is your experience of sites charging for tents/pitches, after my hedgehog experience a kitchen tent sounds great.
Thanks
Elaine

According to my Hubby, I just hang by my toes from the rafters and dry my wings off......
Kitchen tent? Mine is an older SunnCamp and is 1.8 x 2.0 m approx. (Pix in profile.) It`s got an internal frame so I can hng a larder, pocket organiser and small airing rack inside. It`s quite bulky when packed though. The Outdoor Revolution one sold through this site is smaller at about 1.4 x2.0 m and has an external pole frame, but according to Merry Terrier, it packs really small. She`s got a pix of her`s in her profile.
As to charges, I look on the campsite list when booking and if I see the words "auxiliary tent" I stump up for the nominal £1 or £2 a night for it. It`s worth this IMHO. If I see charges for pup tents, gazebos or day tents? Well, I take the kitchen tent and would pay if asked. No-one has ever asked. I`ve had numerous conversations with campsite owners that think they`re a great idea, mind, especially if it means folk don`t bring such huge tents as are currently popular, pitch up within 6" of their neighbours and then cook inside their tents. Saves the grass too if you bring a smaller tent and a kitchen tent, because kitchen tents don`t have groundsheets. (Too slippy.)So on the whole, I think campsite owners are pretty favourable to kitchen tents.
And no-one has ever suggested I need a second pitch for it. It`s quite clearly not a sleeping tent.
