This article looks at the different tastes that people may have in camping and encourages people to think for themselves when it comes to choosing the ‘best’ place to camp, expressing their own individuality as opposed to just going where everyone recommends, which will not be suitable for everyone.
Somone once said someone who likes camping is like a fisherman. Others always have had better experiences than you. If you have found the best tents, campsite or the best place to camp in the UK, then they have found the best place to camp in the world, if not the Universe. Throughout the Word there are many and varies camping experiences to have, but your personal preference should guide you in your choice. What is good for one may not be enjoyed by another.
You should go for the big campsites if you are more of a social person, here you can mingle with other campers and have fun and enjoy the3 experience together.
The choice of camping tents also can often be bewildering and I will cover this in another article- watch this space!
This might not be a great camping experience for you however. If on the other hand you like the quite life, then go somewhere off the beaten track where you can enjoy the wildlife in isolation and quite.
Commercially run campsites are pretty standard and the good campsites are ones that have the facilities that you want (and doesn’t have the ones that you don’t want).
You need the permission of the owner for a field that is not a designated campsite. It is not possible sometimes to find the owner to ask for permission however.
Within the camping community you will often hear of camping sites that other people have used and they can tell you the best places to camp and where to avoid like the plague. When you wake in the morning you may well discover that the great camping spot you set up the previous night might not turn out to be so good.
But you also need to find out what suits you. What is fabulous for one camper might be another’s idea of hell. Be your own person and follow your hart rather than following the crowd. Everyone has different ideas of camping heaven, so keep this in mind and choose a camping experience based on your own preferences not other peoples.
