Just back from a week away, and on Friday night saw someone lying outside their tent on an inflatable sofa. I was convinced that at any minute their OH would bring out the coffee table and TV.

Depends on the length of stay.

For a 5 days +

2 sims, 2 inflatable double sofas, 1 ready bed, camping larder/coffee table, 2 kitchen tables, 3 kids folding chairs, 2 adult folding chairs,  2 throws, 4 throw cushions, 5 sleeping bags, 5 duvets (we like comfort), 7 bed pillows, 2 cookers, porta loo, 1 suitcase and a coolbag.  We desperately need a trailer though for next year as I want more things (rugs, carpet, wardrobes, etc).

For a weekend we take 1 sofa, no chairs, 1 kitchen table, 1 cooker, all bedding, porta loo, cool bag and 1 cooker.

We take an extra 2 man pop up tent and that becomes our wardrobe for our family of 4. A great way of keeping our tent tidy!

Something like

We've one of those and they are fab! I really miss it when we don't take it with us.

We also take 4 chairs (one for each of us), big dinning table and a smaller table for cooking. Most of out equipment gets put into the large Ikea blue bags as they will squish up nicely in the car. We use air beds most of the time and when I'm at Beaver sleepover or cub camp, the camp bed comes out as I'm not blowing up an air bed at silly o'clock!

In the shed in a kitchen stand, a twin burner stove and porta-potty that are all redundant.

We used to take nothing! Now we take: a table or 2, 4 stools, a trug and a folding crate. That's about it. Not much room in the car you see....
