What do you all use to keep clothes in when you're off camping?

We weren't as organised as we'd hoped to be by the time we went off this weekend gone, and since we were only away for 2 nights I only took 1 change of clothes, slung into a carrier bag each.

Not sure what the modern camper uses - my main camping experience comes from when I was in the guides and scouts, and we used to have to build shelves etc out of sticks and string!

I saw in Home Bargains today a really useful looking wardrobe type thingy that was less than £10 which could be quite useful.

I used to just use a bag before the caravan

We treated ourselves to an Outwell Trinidad wardrobe this year. Double width wardrobe with either hanging rails or shelves. Keeps you kit dry and tidy as well as your tent.

We just use a £1 pop up laundry basket from a pound shop. Does the job and doesn't take up space in the car.

We use supermarket trolley bags, I got them in Lakeland. They fit in the boot of the car neatly and stand up on their own so you can see what in them. We each have one and if you can't get it in the bag you can't take it with you.

If we use the small synthetic tent, we just keep our clothes in a holdall, but in the frame tents we use a clothes rail (£6) without the casters, and I hang a six section canvas shelf unit from this - I can organise everything into sections then. Hubby has his shirts hanging on the rail, and it's handy for draping towels over while they dry too.

They live in the bags when clean, a pop-up laundry basket once dirty. Can't bo doing with the faff of "proper" places, I'd spend the whole holiday chivvying the ones with the Y chromosomes, which wouldn't be a holiday at all.
