Well I am currently planning my first camping trip and I intent to attempt to fit a 4 person 2 room tent, a two burner calor gas powered stove, as well as a backup mini stove powered by the little canisters, a little portable gas powered heater, folding table and chairs and then obvious essentials (clothing, cutlery, washing up stuff etc) in a Fiat Punto along with myself, partner, 3 month old and all her essentials (Not taking a pushchair/pram, just a baby carrier) and a 4 year old and his essentials.

Good luck :) but seriously you will be suprised at what you can fit inside if packed correctly, our old kia picanto used to be known as the tardis! just be carefull if putting things under the seats as lots of modern cars have lots of wires underneath for airbags etc.

Hi, we have just bought the kampa bamburgh, not pitched it yet as garden too small. We too will struggle for space as we have a Mini Countryman, a roofbox and two pre-teens. O/h and i have thought of getting trailer but have decided we should have enough room with some savvy packing.. umbrella fold chairs... clothes in re useable supermarket bags, suitcase stoves and a small gas bbq, along with fold up picnic table, inflatable beds, we are hoping to do ok.. fingers crossed :)

Then I recall a poor cyclist we saw toiling along in driving rain under his yellow cape on the Isle of Harris. I didn't envy him at the time.
Mmmmm . . .
