We use the kids trampoline . Ours is happily drying there now after week at Callow Top. The net guards on the tramp make it really high and we have a job to throw it over it but once over the whole tent is off ground and kids like getting in the trampoline whilst it drys as it feels like a bouncy tent .

Our tent spent a couple of hours dripping in the garage, and is now draped over the washing line, now that the sun is out. It was our first ever really, really wet packing up. Everything is either damp or just plain wet. There are sleeping bags, rugs, blankets, poles, pegs, windbreaks all over the house, garden and garage.

Its all part of the fun

We put our big tent out on the lawn with doors open and the garden chairs on their sides inside to maintain an airflow inside and then finish off in the conservatory.

The smaller tents often just get drapped around the conservatory and turned, unless we've used them as part of the holiday - when they are draped and turned in the big tent when we're out during the daytime.

Just laying on the grass will just trap all of the moisture from the ground and make whatever side is touching the grass damp.

It needs to be off the ground.
