An Introduction to Trailer Tents and Folding Campers

Trailer tents and folding campers provide a much higher level of comfort when compared to dome and frame tent camping, whilst preserving the basic natural elements that make an outdoor holiday so enjoyable. Surprisingly many trailer tent and folding camper sales come from previous owners of caravans and small motorhome's. A step down you may think, yet every year, more and more people are waking up to the idea, that trailer tents and folding campers can offer genuine advantages over the more luxurious caravan and motorhome. Trailer tents and folding campers can provide a very reasonable level of comfort at a fraction of the cost of a caravan or motorhome and are significantly less complicated and expensive to maintain and use. They are also easier to tow, require far less storage space and devaluation figures are much easier on the back pocket.

Camperlands are the biggest trailer tent and folding camper retailer in the UK, with a large proportion of the Manchester showground dedicated to, displaying and demonstrating a comprehensive selection of new and used stock. Our trailer tent stock includes many of the popular models that can be bought from camping outlets up and down the country. However we take extra pride in our unique ability to offer trailer tents, which cannot be found anywhere else in the UK. We are sole UK distributors for many top European manufacturers including TransCamper, CampMaster, Camplet and Jamet and frequently have in stock specially designed trailer tents from Trigano. Trailer tents can accommodate between 2 to 8 people and are ideal for fun family and group holidays.

Folding campers are similar to trailer tents but on a grander scale with an enlarged chassis that can be as long as an 18ft caravan when erected. The larger size allows for the inclusion of features more commonly found on in caravans and motorhome's such as, 12v and 240v electrics, fitted fridges, heaters and cassette toilets, ovens, water heaters and sink and drainers. Other benefits only become evident when the folding camper is folded down such as, reduced height and length, which makes towing and storage much easier. The gross weight of a folding camper can be up to 50% less than some caravans. Folding campers require no pegging and take about 5-10 minutes to fully erect. Comfortable accommodation is provided for 4-6 people but this can be extended to 10 by utilising the awning and bedroom extensions.

We have provided quite a lot of information for you to take in on this and subsequent trailer tent and folding camper pages but feel it will benefit you, particularly if you are considering your first purchase and have no knowledge to draw from.
