Shelter & Sleep

A good night's sleep makes everything easier outdoors. This collection covers quick-pitch pop-up tents for campsites and festivals, a UV-rated pop-up beach shelter, 3-season and envelope sleeping bags, and emergency bivvy bags for your rucksack. Product pages list berth size, packed size, weight and season rating as the manufacturer states them. Check these against where you'll camp, because a British spring night can be much colder than the forecast suggests. Pop-up tents are fast to pitch but bulkier to carry, so they suit car camping best. For lightweight wild-camping setups, look at tarps and hammocks in Bushcraft, and add a sleeping mat for insulation from the ground.
