Twenty five pounds? Maybe. Fifty pounds? I think not.
How about saving your money and taking a couple of rugs from home or getting some brightly coloured rugs from Ikea or somewhere?
Take care

The thing is about having a carpet, it fits the whole floor - once you've got it under a couple of things eg tables, it will stay in position, unlike rugs which might slide about

We dont have rugs at home, dont like Ikea or brightly coloured rugs which is why we buy tent carpets

Experience enables you to recognize a mistake when you make it again.
Everything has been said before, but since nobody ever listens we have to keep going back and saying it all over again and again and again

Hi folks, A big yes from me, yes they are expensive but worth it for that extra comfort, nice under foot when its a bit chilly. We bought ours last year befor a September trip it was well worth it, a fellow camper said you are now "clamping" never heard of that before, had to laugh when he explained.
Best regards Dave

Apparantly so he said, it's luxury camping as in "clam / fancy" as I said I had never heard of it either.

I bought a carpet for my trip this coming week. Something warm underfoot will be much appreciated.
I am using my Kyham tent and have a cheap tarp to put in the main living area, with a carpet on top, I am hoping for warm and toasty!

I have brought 3 Fleece type throws from Ikea & today i purchased some of the anti slip matting from B & M so am going to try that just to add some comfort to our tent.
As this will be our first camping trip for a long time i do not think spending nearly £70 plus for the carpet to fit our tent is an option at the moment.
