I got a Gelert giant one from Sports Direct for 9.99 and liked it so much I went back to get another but got a karrimor one for £7.50 instead which is identical - just a different brand bame. I keep one for swimming and one for camping

We have the giant towels for all 5 of us. They take up such a tiny bit of space.
Went swimming from our campsite and took the towels. Dried them in the tent and then finished them off outside. So easy to dry them.
Instructions
Have shower.
Wrap yourself in towel and leave small son under the showerhead to keep warm.(other side of curtain)
Dry all bottles and put back into sponge bag.
Unrap towel and pat any wet bit - most will have dried.
Get dressed.
Turn off shower and roll up son (like a carpet)
Give son tickles, cuddles and attention - he will now be dry and can be dressed.
If you do not have any small children of your own you can omit this bit!

I should think so too

They were selling them in Quality Save for £2.00 not so long ago. They are very absorbent and easy to dry. Great for wrapping hair in as takes a lot of wet out of it.
I had a quick unplanned shower last week on a campsite and actually dried myself with a face cloth.....

We have the large Mountain Warehouse ones too (pink for me, blue for the boys!) bath sheet size almost. As we are vanners space wasn't the issue but they are much quicker to dry after we have used them and of course they do take up a fraction of the space which is a bonus. Going to get some handtowel size ones for this year.
