I am looking to buy a Camping Kitchen/Cupboard - can anyone recommend one, I really want one that gives me a good workspace.
Saw this one and the reviews seem quite good.

I don't like those hanging larders which suspend with 4 x dog lead type clips and velcro strips. The shelves are usually a bit bendy and the larders won't hold much weight.
Best kitchen we've ever had (and we've had a few) is the Outwell Padres XL. The only problem, for us, was the bulk of it (to carry) so we sold it and got the smaller Padres. Actually, in just posting that link, I notice the XL is quite lot cheaper at Grasshopper Leisure as well!
As has already been said in this thread, these are super-fast and simple to put up and are good quality. They're quite heavy and bulky pack size, though. If you've got room to carry one, they're very good indeed.
My next choice would be the
Outwell Sudbury or one like it (Vango used to do an almost identical one - which we had - and other brands do similar versions. They're quick to put up and the larder, with being already affixed to the frame, are much more reliable (and usually have metal-edged shelves). We used one of these before we changed to the Padres (XL first, then the standard size). Only decided to change because the Padres is nicer and easier (was a bit of a pain fiddling to properly locate the 4 clips on the slatted aluminium top.
This Outdoor Revolution one seems like a good deal.
If you want loads of work surface, I'd suggest going for 2 separate units rather than one really wide one, just so you have more versatility (take one for a short-stay, both for a longer stay) and because I prefer the stronger, pre-attached larder / storage cupboards. I think it's quicker and easier to put 2 good units up than to faff around with the longer ones with side tables and attaching bits. Just my opinion, though!

Looks good but the price lools a little steep, we have the royal easy up kitchen lots of this design under different brands such as vango, outwell etc, i did notice this outdoor revolution version at a good price.

Sorry youlbury, I just replicated your recommendation! Yes, it looks like a good deal ...£65 most other places.
Edited to say, I've Just noticed, this one has a steel frame. The one we had (Vango) and the Outwell Sudbury have an aluminium frame, so a bit lighter and possibly easier to handle. Just worth noting as will probably account for the price difference.
I'd go for a larder-type kitchen (such as already mentioned) and then something like the Sunncamp Midi or the Easy Camp Beauvais. Both go up quick as a flash and provide good storage and worktop space. We've had both, still got the Beauvais and can highly recommend it. We use it outside as well as in, since it's durable and lightweight enough to move around with ease.
