Bedding* (sleeping bags, pillows & rugs, or sheets, duvets & blankets – it’s up to you) and your kitchen kit (camping crockery/cutlery & pots & pans/kettle etc) if you're planning on cooking. If you can't face packing up all these bits & pieces you can book a full kit in advance from the office (£75 for a large kit and £55 for a medium). If you've booked a Village Field tipi you may also need to bring other basics like a stove & cool box, water container etc - just check with us if you're unsure - but these are provided in the Private tipis, plus a handy little inside table.
*If you're staying in a Private Site tipi we provide the sort of camping mats that you see carried at the bottom of a traveller’s backpack, which are fine for younger children and hardy adults; but most people prefer a bit more comfort, so bring your own airbed (foot pump only) or old futon to use as well. If you have a small baby or toddler, travel cots work well in the larger tipis, so do bring one with you.
