Had a wonderful weekend away trying out my new Kampa Perran 4 tent at Street Head Caravan Park (review has been left)
The weather was kind and we were able to sit out quietly each evening around the fire pit.

Looks lovely, where did you get the fire blanket for under your firepit?

I've taken to keeping a spare kitchen floor tile handy to protect the grass although it isn't really big enough.

Thanks for posting.

I like the firepit image. The food also caught my eye! I might take a BBQ on next trip so it can double up as a heater and a cooking item.

Glad you enjoyed yourselves.

I bought it off eBay for about £4. At 1m x 1m it fitted nicely under the fire pit and folds down nice and small for transporting.

Careful!

Even if you are aware of the risks, others might not be.

HEJC72 - love your photos. The fairy lights on your windbreak - are those battery or solar? And are they on the "bendable" wire string rather than traditional wire? Thanks.

They are just cheap solar fairy lights from B&M - they are on a twisted wire so I slightly untwist to create a small gap that then slides over the windbreak pole!
