If you want your wife to enjoy camping, then make it as comfortable as possible, get an up of the floor air matress, camp kitchen, 12 volt fridge and a good size tent.

I have slept in a tent. But it was just for the heck of it. I wasn't camping in the woods. I was camping in my back yard.

Yeah, I've slept in many tents when camping before. It's kinda fun. I just need to have the running water (and soap!) and proper toilets. LOL

I love camping, and sleeping in a tent is so much fun. It feels like living on the edge a bit. Lions, tigers, and bears, oh my!!

I have been camping in a tent several times throughout my life. My husband and I have a whole camping set up. We have a two room cabin tent and all of the necessities.

I have and it was okay.. I prefer a matress though, nowadays they have those blow up ones you can take with you so that would be good.

MINE WASNT AS NICE - i was made to sleep in a tent all night with creepy crawlies everywhere
yeh i have a few times but the first time i recall spending the night in one was when i was quite young and my siter had been buggin my dad to set up the tent in the garden so we could camp out so he went and set it all up for us but the tent had been lying in the shed for god knows how many years so when we went out all excited and opened it up it was all damp and full of creepy crawlies so we didnt want to camp out after all lol but guess what My dad made us as he though well bugger you i just spent ages putting this thing up so you are going to stay in it and he made us camp out in that horrible tent all night he even stayed up just to make sure we did lol:p Ahh what fond memories i have of my childhood LOL...

thats a nice story, it kinda reminds me of when my boys were younger and an eldery neighbour gave them a tent that had been in their shed for years, it had no instructions and took two hours to put up by which time it had clouded over,and when the clouds opened up where it was so rotten it just collapsed. thank you for your response :)

Tent - Camper's tent
Same here. I don't remember ever going on a camp that required me to sleep in a tent. I haven't even set up a tent before or seeing one up close. But I think it would be nice though, going somewhere so close to nature and sleeping in a tent. I still want to do it some time.

I think putting up a tent can be good fun in itself. Thank you for your response. :)

Yes, and I recall the last time very well, and will never go again! lol. I went to Looe in Cornwall, and arrived with an earth shattering clap of thunder, and it proceeded to teem down! Pitched the tent near the perimeter hedge so that it would be shielded from the wind, and it rained the whole week, except for Wednesday afternoon, when the sun actually decided to come out for a while!!! Of course, by night-time it was raining again! It rained so much that the pre-protected tent leaked at the topmost point and my feet got wet. Lots of people packed up and went home because their tents had either blown down or they had been soaked in the night. It was a disaster!!! Hence, I never towed a tent again! lol. :-0

I am going to Cornwall next august for my holidays, but I am booking a house. If my husband had his way we would be camping, but I got my way again. LOL We have lovely countryside in britain but awful weather most of the time. Thank you for your response. :)

Yup, the weather is always the problem. Sometimes you can cut lucky but I stick to inns now, especially on the North Yorkshire Moors. lol.

I've slept in a tent a few times. I'm not a big camper, but I have occasionally done some sleeping in a tent. I think its exciting. There is something humbling about sleeping in a room made of nylon.

I think that the feeling of being outside in the elements is all part of the fun of camping. I love the feeling of being free. Thank you for your response. :)
