When I was camping under canvas, my last 2 tents were cotton canvas Dutch pyramids with either a zipped in groundsheet or sewn in groundsheet.
Very cosy when heated using a fan heater no more than 2kW power, with dual heat output and thermostatically controlled.
I always camped with EHU so it was not an issue for me to have a fan heater inside the tent.
I wore a hat to bed, slept on raised camp bed with a SIM on top, secured using a fitted flannel sheet. 13 Tog combined duvet on top.
My cooker was a 2-burner Coleman Dual Fuel 424, and it worked very well at low temperature.
Some sites would allow a tenter to pitch on the hard standing during winter. However, it could damage the groundsheet until it is pea gravels like those use in All Weather Pitches.
