February might seem a strange time to go camping, but with the opportunity for many families to go away in the half term holiday and the fact that camping is an inexpensive option when you are looking for a family holiday, especially out of term time, then it can be a great way to get all the family together for some good quality time in nature.
At this time of the year of course the weather can be unpredictable and in order to make sure that everyone stays happy and healthy on your camping trip, here are some of the things that you need to think about before you head off…
Pack Warm Clothing – Ensuring that everyone stays warm day and night is essential – thermal underclothes and natural warm materials like this womens merino wool sweater shamrockgift.com/aran-sweaters/womens-aran-sweaters/womens-merino-wool-irish-sweater will all help you to keep the cold at bay whether you are in the tent or out exploring the countryside.
Sleeping Equipment – The ground can be very cold at this time of the year, so keep some distance between you and the ground by taking a blow up mattress. As well as this, make sur that you have good quality winter sleeping bags that can keep the heat in.
Prepare for all Weather – As well as the cold, make sure that you have a shovel in case it snows, especially if you are camping in Scotland, and also waterproofs to keep you dry if it rains.
