Heads at the top of the slope but as you're using camping beds, you coupd perhaps use some wedges under the lower legs and try to level it a bit?

Excitedly making camping plans for this year.... just can't make up my mind at the moment!

Pitch tent with the door at the lower part of the slope. Then sleep head high or you'll get a headache

We slept on a slope the other week. My 11 year old, body clock seems to have leapt ahead and thinks she is a teenager, slid off her SIM in the night and was to be found with the bottom of her sleeping bag pressing against the tent wall furthest down the hill.
We got up, made breakfast, had a shower etc., etc., with her still asleep and the door zipped open, she was actually half out of the tent by the time she woke up at something like 945.
Individuality is fab but we do start off heads at the top of the hill generally.

Tie a guyline round your neck and peg it outside. If you survive the night you will find you haven't slipped far down the slope.
