We keep ours fairly simple , on purpose. It has everything we need/use and we are quick to leave anything we don't use enough at home.

Hago cooking bit


Kitchen bit

We have three of the grey boxes you can see on the right, one for food and two for 'stuff', including a pressure cooker and everything else we need. Writing this now I can't imagine why we have two boxes of 'stuff', but we do!

I have bought a Coleman oven this year so that is an extra, hopefully it will arrive before our trip in a week's time.

We take trangias and a heat pal for cooking when we go for short trips but gas when we go with the trailer. We are thinking of taking the meths burners next week though instead of the gas. Less is more for us tbh and the meths cookers give a really gentle heat which works really well with the pressure cooker and things like risotto.

We have a little rectangular Weber bbq too which we might use a couple of nights if we are away for a week.

We are planning on adding an Edfell stove towards the end of the season now that we have bought a tentipi so I expect that we might try cooking on that. Hopefully we will use it with both tents, inside one and outside the other.

I have a similar blue kitchen, It says Beanstalk Kamp Kitchen but mine has blue legs. I have the other shelves too but in the Bell tent it worked better only using the top one. I was given it by a good friend who had it kicking around his garage. I am so pleased with it.

We sprayed ours Campernic. It was brand new, never been used but it was chocolate brown and just a bit too retro looking!

My husband made an oak 'worktop' from some new oak floorboards we had left over. We had intended that it was used as a big chopping board area (we put osmo oil on it, food safe and same stuff that we used in our kitchen) In reality though we haven't cut on it as it seems a shame to do that.

Ours seems to change everytime we go away, this is our latest set up but was only a short trip so doesn't include our freezer and you can't really see the hob & halogen oven.

This was easter last year, we have since added a double electric hob which sits on the cooker unit, folding metal bistro table that the halogen sits on and replaced the electric cooler as the silver one died. It was when we realised a seperate tent for cooking was a good idea to stop cooking smells lingering in the main tent.






What tent are you using for the kitchen setup?
